Confirmed Signing Tyler Dibling

[Zatara]

Rumors are they have upped it to 40 million plus which is a bit speculative from them ,,,, as his stats are not that great -

Season Appearances Goals Assists

2024/25 - played 38 scored 4 assist 3 - he though always stood out and is very direct in a poor team - he also won 2 pens - very fast ....

Rumours where?

 

[Simon Buttle]

It seems alongside the game this afternoon against Brighton (with fans) both teams played a behind closed doors game this morning and Dibling played in the game, so no idea if he features later on this afternoon.

Me with a walking stick would be an upgrade on Jack Harrison mate ....

Ah, Joey, I reckon even without the walking stick you'd be more nimble on your feet.

If we're bidding £40m for Dibling, why aren't we going £35m for Fofana?

Seems a bit odd

Doesnt look like hes in talks if theyre risking him in a preseason game during talks.

With fofana the issue is the player, not the fee.

 

[TheNinja]

Promising player but is he that instant fix we seemingly need?

No one is an instant fix when you need at least 5-6 players, but he'll help hugely I believe.

…..not sure he’s ’very fast’, certainly be welcome if he is.

Seen a clip of Russell Martin yday saying that in the long run his plan for Dibling was to move him central behind the striker. Saw a few Southampton fans saying similar on their forum as well that it would suit him.

RW more of a priority for us obviously but interesting, hard not to notice similarities to Ndiaye.

He's been pencilled in for that 10 role for a number of years.

It seems to have been more of a 60 min B team outing tbh, first team probably out in the game this afternoon. Also I think he is just coming back from an injury recently.

I’d be surprised / disappointed if it was as simple as that and we’re still trying to land him.

 

[DaChunk]

19 years old, not even 20 until the @rse end of the season, and people think he’s overpriced at 35 million? LOL.

Some of those creative moves were ridiculous and he’d have had a ton of assists if Southampton weren’t so rubbish.

Bolasie of the south

Probably why hes not in the recent England u21 squad?

Bolasie of the south

As someone who was appalled with the Bolasie signing i can confidently say theyre nothing alike in mentality on and off the pitch.

 

[greener]

he can still be in the squad till otherwise

Last Champ season Saints played, Tella in their 1st game (he scored) and then sold him the week following.
