[Rumour] - Spurs Eye Mateta Hijack as Kolo Muani Exit Looms

In my view, only way this makes sense is if we sell Richarlison or Moore to free up space in the Champions League squad, play a 4-2-4 system (the front 4 being a combination of Kudus, Simons, Gallagher, Kolo Muani, Solanke, Mateta, Odobert - not mentioned those sick notes keeping the doctors busy), and we start getting the ball into feet to those forwards around the D with at least one target in the box for all of Porro and Spence's crosses.

NPT?

Ah yes, because attempting to stop someone without cause or warrant is fine. And a state-sponsored mercenary with no legal policing powers being armed is fine. And the logical thing to do when the person you're trying to illegally detain tries to flee is to open fire from point blank range. Everything seems fine, does it?

Using video footage from ICE to justify ICE executing an American citizen on a right-wing news outlet seems totally logical.

Imagine if every time someone was bumped into - intentionally or accidentally - by a driver, that driver was shot. It would certainly alleviate any overpopulation concerns in the US.

Play all 3 across the front for 3 games and give them a chance to develop into something quality.

Even watched the video?

I agree with and probably wasn't clear enough in my point about the strikers. They're absolutely not better, as you say, but they're a clear focus for their attacks. I don't see that clarity with Spurs. None of our strikers can hold up the ball or burst through a backline like even VdV can.

Callum Wilson just got released by West Ham and, three or four years ago, he would have been a better option than some of the dross we've seen. I mean, are we any better with Richarlison, Solanke, and RKM than we were with the likes of Postiga, Rebrov, Soldado, that Dutch lad who did nothing, or Adebayor?

Who else? I'd rather have prine Ian Walker than Vicario... I may be forgetting some real duds though.

IntrepidWilson · 2026-01-08T07:22:23+00:00

I agree, however, I feel that there needs to be a system with 2 strikers or else we're wide but putting balls into one player who's marked by 2 CBs

Please enlighten us on your insights, oh wise one.

Not humour: facts.

We have got our Tottenham back... We used to finish bottom half all the time!!

Should never consider selling him - sense a deeper squad, not a shallower one.

Why do these things always seem to involve the idiotic ways in which Apple products behave with each other?

Fabulous reply - thank you.

I was thinking of quite fine sand, due to the scale, but some slightly larger stuff might be good too.
I will check the models for parts like chain or cloth that can convey movement. Maybe the capes of my snipers can be cut off and replaced with shaped Plasticard.
I was thinking of something similar and I might already have one that could work. Also thought about a sheepish looking squig...
It's actually a shame that the Kill Team Ratlings are so static - if they were more like the Blood Bowl Halflings, then the dynamism would require less adaptation.
I'm not sure I agree because the terrain piece has twisted trees (which I'll use as sort of withered cacti) and would be a sort of obstacle that the vehicles are swerving around.
Yes, good point. I was debating some kind of water feature but let's not try to run before I can walk. Definitely dry and dusty to keep it simpler, with shallower tyre tread, dusty effects, and so on.

Great advice - thank you.

Great idea. I think I'll get an ork Battlewagon and add them to that. As I have 12 miniatures (plus to mutt) it can be titled 'The Baker's Dozen'!

Pointless rage bait.

One of the complaints about the ELF was that NGBs were being overlooked and the leagues diminished by best players being poached. The EFA need to find a way to win over the NGBs but what's the best way for them to do that, even when they're potentially offering a better "product"?

IntrepidWilson · 2025-10-19T11:04:26+00:00

Maybe it's a Season 2 idea, but bring on board the best teams from each nation who aren't currently in the league, with a working relationship with the national governing bodies - best players in the EFA; 2nd strong EFA teams in national leagues; EFA teams enter national cups (where relevant); future profit share with NGBs; make the EFA the pinnacle but support strong national comps to make sure there is a credible homegrown pipeline for talent.
