So just because you haven't heard of a player, who was by the way the 2nd best CB in Ligue 1 this season, included in the Team of the Year alongside Thiago freaking Silva, he's shit? Wow, the arrogance :lol:

And it's not just this season, he's been bossing it in the Lyon team for 3 years now. I for one, still remember that stunner he scored in Whirt Hart Lane back in 2013, when he was still playing LB, i think. I watched that EL match live and he stood out even then (when he was only 19). Not just because of his goal (but it did help obviously), but for his defense awareness and aerial play as well. Please don't judge players quality based on your obviously flawed knowledge. You may not know who he is, but that doesn't mean everyone else doesn't. And it certainly doesn't say squat about his (un)quality.:cheers:

i hate this stretched out back and forth convos so i'll be brief. you can't tell the difference between 'shit' and 'not good enough' or 'not barca material' and you talk about MY flawed knowledge? putting the words in my mouth, wow the arrogance indeed. *mic drop*

regarding umtiti i'm slowly beginning to be calm about it, even if he doesn't do well it's not like we'll have a worse backline than last year, in case masche stays of course. fingers crossed

Rough translation thanks to google.

The French central Lyon Samuel Umtiti could be a reality before the official schedule. Although initially everything pointed that any operation would be from July 1 because it was included in the economic end of this season, things have changed and the player of 22 years could be Barca at any time: the agreement is complete, signed for five years and the club will pay 20 million.

The area economy is finishing outlined the numbers must be approved by the Assembly in the autumn, and there's good news: Overcoming the forecasts made ​​at the beginning of the year, 633 million of revenue and 20 million profit. Since mid-year, in January, the data were better than expected, and in the second half, thanks to the extra revenue from the agreement with Nike, which represent more than 20 million, and the failure to win Champions (which is not budgeted), to tackle the signing of a player before closing in June. It is an issue that is studying the Camp Nou : If Umtiti including the transfer of benefits achieved, executed a contract already agreed, and which give faster from France, who want to close as soon as possible. The club also signed while the central and expects to reduce debt, from 328 million today to between 270 and 280.

Looks like we might be able to announce his signing rather quickly. I wonder why?

Oh wait to get people to forget about the "Pact" :bartomeu:

Yeah, the board is leaking a lot of shit these days because of that. Same with Mascherano's renewal.

They know we like to overpay and will take advantage of that. When you buy a scrub like Arda for 40M, other clubs take notice.

Interesting how Reliable Catalan Journalists are saying this is a done deal while L'equipe saying our Bid was turned down but talks are still going.

I think the deal is close to being done and the fee is likely at least 30-33 Million.

More than 30m? Need to wait and see how he does. But if the price is near 40m, why not Bailly.
