Confirmed Signing Tyler Dibling

It's because he's just pulled up holding his hamstring as they reintegrated him into training today.

I’m assuming this is a joke

He won’t be passing Everton’s epic medical then.

I’m sorry how are Southampton making US an offer “Take it or leave it lads” sorry lads, the ultimatum is supposed to come from our end you know?

Because they're clearly wanting to sell but are playing silly buggers over it. The club are correct to allow Southampton to sweat a bit that being the case.

Odd how public the negotiations are

Is them trying to get more clubs in for him to add pressure to us becuase is in his last 2 years and would be the best ffp profit for them. Have other players like fernandes who i think is under 5 yr deal and think was bought for 20 mill.

What have everton offered? Cant find this…

 

[DuncansPigeons]

The ex 777 director in charge of transfers at Southampton. Tells you all you need to know. Anyone with them on their CV can’t be trusted and is a massive blagger

 

[nevsonlymate]

This is how we ended up with Tosun

And looks like Jacko93 was in on the negotiations for us

Just like the last three . Like many others, I think this will eventually get done. It could be strung out to deadline day, which is no good for anyone, us, Southampton or Dibling but probably more risk to them, as we can move on to other targets whereas they likely need to cash and will need to get reinforcements themselves. As long as we are confident on a plan B, our position becomes stronger by the day, so we should be willing to compromise but not cave in to ridiculous demands.

If they need to re-in force their squad but dont want to sell the other lad to WHU they wont want this going to September as any player they go for will also double in price its a risky game to play other teams will know both they have money and are desperate

We haven't offered anything new. Southampton have made us a counter offer because they do actually want to sell him despite all their bluster

 

[Brisan123]

So basically make sure we check the name on the transfer sheet before signing?

Otherwise we could end up with officer Dibbles from Top cat

 

[Curtis]

The counter offer should be a bag of wet farts

 

[summerisle]

If they’re doing brinksmanship via the media by proxy like this then I think an undisclosed deal likely happens.

When was the last time we actually stated a fee for a transfer ?

 

[DaChunk]

Wouldn't buy into the tier 4 peasants looking for clicks lids.

….weird window for me, this is another signing that I’m not in the least bothered about although I appreciate lots of Evertonians consider him a very special talent. Thing is, Moyes wants him which is what matters.

Was told a story a few years back by an old footy mate who did a bit of scouting for Everton before getting quite senior roles with another club. Moyes called a few of them into his office and asked who is the most talented Academy player in the country, they conferred and agreed a young lad at Soton called Gareth Bale. Moyes asked how much it would cost to secure him and was told £1m, a figure he baulked at and said it was too much for an unknown.

Maybe Moyes remembers that discussion.

 

[KevMirallas]

Will Still telling everyone “it’s up to him now”, making sure Saints fans know Dibling demanded an exit and there was nothing they could do.

Southampton leaking their own “counter-offer” still making reference to what the exact number they originally wanted, while admitting the actual offer is less than that.

Everton telling everyone for two weeks it would only happen if Southampton came down a bit, which they seemingly have.

There’s a window here for a lovely little undisclosed fee where everyone gets to come out looking pretty good and everybody gets what they want. Make it happen please.

 

[Simon Buttle]

Need to cut out the nonsense and just get this done and dusted.
