Samuel Umtiti

[SingmeasongSong]

This + Tierney would be a game changer.

Umtiti on his first game injured, out for the season. That's the luck we usually have.

A fully fit Umtiti of old is worth the 60m though.

 

[field442]

Reliable?

No. A load of ****e.

 

[samshere]

There is something cooking in the background, I feel we'll get one of Tierney, a CB or Coutinho on loan.

 

[sykesy69]

If we're serious about getting a CB in on loan, means that the Coutinho rumours are all BS.

We already have Dani Ceballos on loan and can only register 2 loaned players at a time for the EPL.

As much as I like the idea of a better option at LW than PEA, Mkhi and Iwobi, priority for this season has to be a CB.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Loan with option to buy is the absolute best option for Umtiti.


That was back in may, looks like that account is just rehashing. Umtiti probably is the one we really want.

"TransferChecker" :rofl:

 

[Red London]

This + Tierney would be a game changer.

Would take us way above Chelsea and United.

Imo would make us the third best side in the league

 

[HairSprayGooners]

That's why a loan with option to buy makes so much sense. Can sound out his injuries and see if its truly worth the punt.

agree and i think we can get 3rd ebven without a top cb but would be a lot easier with one. double swoop umititi and coutinho together
tierney too

 

[Sanchez11]

Umtiti would be our ledley king 1 game a week guy

 

[Gunner-Union]

depends i guess maybe our medical team will be better who knows or maybe his injuries are fixable and wont keep coming back.

Doesn’t make sense for Barca though. It leaves them with Pique, Lenglet and Todibo with no money for a replacement.

 

[GunnerUK]

Just spoken to Raul: can confirm Umtiti is happening.

Meeting tomorrow

Na in all seriousness I think something is happening behind the scenes with Barça

 

[L3T5 PL4Y]

This + Tierney would be a game changer.

Both susceptible to chronic injuries......

 

[tap-in]

It may be a loan but I do think we'll get a CB. We know how bad our defence is and we know we lack width up front. We are sorting the latter so why would be ignore the former! It would be like polishing the front of your car and leaving the rear covered in bird sh1t and dead flies. We need to sparkle all over!

 

[Makingtrax]

Both susceptible to chronic injuries......

And we’ve seen enough of that over the years!

 

[SingmeasongSong]

It's the last weekend of the window, I need a bit more juice now. Cannot be that quiet.

Just lie to me media, one last rollercoaste ride !

It made sense when Umtiti was possibly a casualty of Barcelona signing De Ligt but it's hard to see them letting him go now, especially on loan.

maybe hes had enough because they were willing to let him go?

 

[A_G]

They still have no reason to let him go, unless they sign a CB. But since they already have established first choice pairing it's hard to see who they could get, and who would go there know they'd be a back-up.
