Samuel Umtiti

I mean, yeah at times he can look better than Lenglet. But physically, he is so poor that all it takes is one Sunday League type punt from the opposition and a 35 year old Soldado jogs past him and scores. I mean you could argue that Lenglet is even worse, but I guess that's not the comparison we should be making, sine Lenglet is an absolute clown himself. Just looking at Umtiti individually, I'd not want him anywhere near this squad, let alone team. Mingueza, De Jong, Sergi Roberto, doesn't matter you you want to put in there, just don't have Umtiti starting any games. Unless it's against a Segunda team in which case the goals he will give away may not matter that much since we will outscore them.

Yea, he looks better than Lenglet, but his speed might be worse than even Lenglet, and that's pretty astonishing since Lenglet has a snail's pace. I don't see how he could play well without any pace. Most attackers, even oldies like Soldado, will fly past him.

A shame how he destroyed his career.

Exactly. You see his quality in his decisions but he has no ability to recover if he makes mistake.

This guy is finished. Should never wear blaugrana shirt again on the pitch. People who say he is better than lenglet must be high on something.
