Confirmed Signing Tyler Dibling

[hktoffee]

Nah walk away. If other teams were in for him, I doubt he’d be keen to join us as seems to be the case.

Let them lower their asking price.

£40m is too much. Even £35m is too much. He is a prospect still unproven.

Yep. Southampton taking the urine if thats what they're genuinely after I feel.

This time last year the United fans said the same about us and Branthwaite.

Very different situations.

If he were proven he’d be a lot more expensive, if not totally out of our reach. That’s kind of the game, mate.

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Bidding 27m was pretty embarrassing given the asking price

We laughed at uniteds behaviour over branthwaite last year but this was just as derisory with hindsight. Amateur hour bidding half the asking price no wonder they got their backs up.

How is it?

Kubo has multiple years of G\A contributions in top leagues ...... Dibbling hasn't even registered an assist in the top flight.

I reckon 40m with add ons is about right.

Yes I agree it's quite fair.

Kubo is also 24 and hasn't played outside of Spain or a single game in the PL.

Another guy saying Soton ask for £50m lol. Walk away.

And waiting to August to do it.

Everyone saying walk away but not coming up with alternative right wingers.

Last year Branthwaite was already one of the best young English centrebacks in the country, if not full stop. Bit different.

….erm, that’s not the job of posters on here.

 

[BlueStevie35]

A reminder that the club originally bid 27 million whilst briefing the press that 35 would end up being enough. They have gotten it massively wrong

Where did the club say £35m would be enough, that was Joyce’s viewpoint. Somewhere along the line Southampton have decided to chance getting more for their buck hence the two higher bids getting knocked back

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

And waiting to August to do it.

Yep their season starts on Saturday. This is the damage sitting around for 2 months can cause

Kubo is a better dribbler. At least less of a headless chicken when it comes to dribbling and maturity in his play.

I don’t think any top club is willing to take a 50m gamble on a 19years old. That’s almost unheard of in the past decade. Correct me if i’m wrong.

Look at these wonder kids and convinced me Dibling is worth 50m
