Player Valuation: £40m
There's never been a more nailed on undisclosed fee in the history of football if it happens
I think people are still not catching on to how highly rated this Dibling kid is.They obviously don’t rate him anywhere near as highly.
I think the truth is somewhere in the middle, as he’s also told Southampton he wants to leave.No he hasn’t. Southampton pulled him out of no contract training to protect their cash cow.
If sane heads prevail over a macho chest thumping contest this saga could and should be wrapped up this afternoon.Good to see that Southampton are also happy to jeopardise their own start to the season with a fun little staring contest. Just an unsustainable situation all around.
The amusing part of this saga has been posters claiming to know how deals are done and acting as if everyone else is below them and clueless.
Those chaps have never done a deal of circa £50mil in their lifetime. They've never understood the psychology of doing a deal.
Computer games and big imaginations they claim others have, while they dont seem to be able to face facts...
...Everton are now utterly incompetent at transfers.
I'm sorry to flick you off you're a solid poster but I have an established policy ,any one who mentions that name gets the middle finger,it's like Voldemort in that nerd book series
I think people are still not catching on to how highly rated this Dibling kid is.
Speaking to mate who's an Arsenal fan yesterday and he said that Dibling had one of the best individual performances of an opposition player they faced last season. Apparently repeatedly mugged off their cb pairing which is arguably the best in the league.
In his first season of senior football mind you, had 1 championship appearance off the bench for Southampton prior to last season.
Russell Martin said this is his greatest strength and the thing he hopes he doesn't lose. Apparently is very laid back in regards to pressure and has absolute confidence in himself.If he signs then he will need time to settle in. There will be expectations on him especially given how much we have needed a decent right winger over the years.
Or Maybe the lad is a take everything in his stride type and will show no signs of nervousness. That would be great.
The confidence of youths today never ceases to amaze me. Often misplaced confidence, but on the football pitch it's a different matter.If he signs then he will need time to settle in. There will be expectations on him especially given how much we have needed a decent right winger over the years.

They started off at 40 million & now slapped 50 million on him - plus Southampton are a feeder club for LFC why are they not bidding ??????You can only get gazumpted if there is more than one bidding party…..
He is signed so we could offer him in a part exchange deal FGS he is a 4th choice centre back & the championship is about his pace ....Keane would have left us if he didn't sign a contract... Never mind...![]()
