Transfer Rumour Tyler Dibling

[Mitch Ward's Minder]

I couldn’t name a player who plays for Fulham except Robinson and I’d never heard of Tete before our bid

That lad Jimenez who always scores against us with the Terry Butcher bandage every game. Les Ferdinand mkII against us that lad

Another high in that rating, we definitely want that profile.

More stats stuff for nerds like me who are interested:

For reference, OBV stands for on-ball value and is basically a weighted metric for how much a player moves the needle towards their team scoring and away from conceding. Basically, how actually dangerous their passes or dribbles are - think for example along the lines of how much do they move the ball from a non-dangerous area into a dangerous area.

The screenshot above is from less than halfway through the season, but he pretty much maintained this output through the rest of the season too:

Long story short the kid does outrageous things with the ball at his feet, but needs to learn to add end product to it.

Wonder when this next bid is going in..

This is what Southampton and Dibling our thinking we just need to be patient. I think were afew million off advance talks

End product is what we actually need.

 

[blue to the bone]

Has anyone asked Alan Myers?

 

[Saint Domingo]

Get this one done Everton before a London club comes sniffing around.

 

[Lanolin]

End product is what we actually need.

I mean obviously we need end product to some extent, everybody does at the end of the day. I don't really agree with the 'we need somebody who's going to produce right now' shouts though. We're obviously not going to immediately gatecrash the top 4, and as long as we add a a few more decent players to beef the squad up you'd hope we'd have enough about us not to go down. So why do we need people who are going to produce great numbers immediately? Surely it's better to bring players in who give us a chance of building a genuinely good side over the next couple of years rather than spending a load of money bringing someone like Grealish in for one year to help us finish 9th instead of 11th.

I get it mate.

I also couldn't recall Kenny Tete. The fella has been playing in the Prem for 5 years.

Think I need to go for a memory test...

Some players can give you amnesia. I read on here that a 'Jack Harrison' had played for us the last 2 seasons, but I'm f###ed if I can remember a single thing he did.

Has anyone asked Alan Myers?

A minute before Joyce broke it...

"Haven't heard anything, but things can change quickly"..

Now...

"As per Joyce, bid of £27m rejected. Saints want £40m"

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Agree but that's not just a problem isolated to Dibling though. Aznou and any other younger player we sign needs better support than we've given previously to young senior players. Lookman isn't exactly a player averse to moving around or prone to homesickness and he hated it here cos we just shoved him in the titanic and left him to crack on *allegedly*

Of course.

Some are more susceptible/won't be as quick to adapt. Aznou is the same age, but been at Barcelona and Bayern Munich, and had a loan spell at Valladolid.

Lookman - totally different situation. Remember, after us he went Leipzig, Fulham and Leicester. He only started to do it at Atalanta.

 

[orchard]

No for me fwiw lads. Seems a bit of a drifter on the pitch. Too much of a gamble for us at this stage.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Why?

OK; all of those will happen.

End product might come with better players around him, always hard in a relegation battling team with a lack of quality forwards to finish chances.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

So is that right Alan Myers is Kenyan Foot these days?

Don't have a clue what the graphs are all about, but if he is a teenager on the right wing that does outrageous things with the ball but no end product, then we have obviously found the next Cristiano Ronaldo.

Sign him up Moyes
