Confirmed Signing Tyler Dibling

[davek]

you said to me this morning we don’t have any dave

No, I didn't.

 

[Moomin]

Crap!
They are all mercenaries, every single one of them.
The day of the local lad playing for the shirt has long ended in the PL.
Badge kissing is payed for .

I've no idea which player you're talking about. I just wanted to jump in.

Hopefully this deal gets sorted this weekend

 

[pfim]

But what criteria are you basing your valuation on .
If you pay less you are going below the level of a Hutchinson for example.
Ironically the less money you spend the higher chance you have of gaining an inferior player and having to spend more again to upgrade later.
As I have alluded superior scouting can offset that risk , but we have seen no evidence of that so far this window .( except perhaps the Bayern lad )

The only true measure of value is when he's sold.

We are the only bidder at the moment, so the market value of Dibling is what we're offering.

That doesn't mean Soton accept, but that's market value.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Hutchinson just gone for about what we last bid for Dibling.

Outarra looks like he's going to Brentford for similar.
Think Dibbling has a higher ceiling than either of them.

 

[Ragnar]

Wanna bet? I think he would come off the bench and start here and there. That output proves he isn't plug in and play

Absolutely no chance

Breaking news
Dave contradicts himself
Shock horror

 

[sandman77]

You don't overpay for anything in real life Football is the same ....

Fancy a beer at Hill Dickinson?

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Both are further along in their development and have (incrementally) been more productive players in the PL.

Ouattara fine. Would hesitate in Hutchinson's case though personally.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

No, I didn't.

You did kinda suggest that the owners are skint though Dave, if I recall correctly.

 

[ElGato]

Yeah.

I like the player, he'd be a great addition with a high ceiling.

But for the price it doesn't solve our lack of pace, aggression, and end product in the final 3rd coming from the right side.

Mate he's rapid and he's an absolute terror, proper yard dog winger in the Mané or Kvara mould (in terms of aggression off the ball)

Of all the things to beat him with, this ain't it.

As with all young players the end product can be called into question, but let's see how his decision making improves in a better side and when he can trust his team mates

 

[pfim]

Ouattara fine. Would hesitate in Hutchinson's case though personally.

He's had 2 full seasons in the first team. Was (again) slightly more productive than Dibling.

The point I'm trying to make is you have more information on these players and can better assess their futures. They may not have higher ceilings, but they have higher floors as well.

I don't know that you can say the same about Dibling. He stood out in the eye test on a very, very bad Soton team. I don't think that's a great barometer.

This

If the lad had any real end product at this stage of his development on top of everything else that he possesses then you'd imagine that Southampton would be asking for much more than £50m either way..

 

[Toffe3m4n]

I would say we need Dybling and a proven right back. These are urgent.

Reckon a DM is priority over RB personally, even now.

 

[Kurt.]

Expecting some movement this afternoon

 

[Kurt.]

And once that’s out the way I hope we hear more about Dibling
