Confirmed Signing Tyler Dibling

[matty1878]

Never heard of him or seen him kick a football but the surname 'dibling' is a big red flag. As hard as i try i simply cannot imagine anyone with that surname going on to be a top a player.

Everton should hire me for advice on these matter

could be “kiplings” cousin

Makinga second bid immediately after the first looks a bit desperate. This isn’t an auction. Best to let the seller wonder for a few days if a new bid is coming and drag it out.

is makinga any good?

BBC doing stats pieces on why our signings might not be the right ones? Should basically rebrand themselves as LFC tv these days. Don’t think I’ve eve seen that type of article before for a single signing let alone a 19 year old going to a bottom half PL side for an average fee.

It's reached Madrid-Franco era levels of connivance now.

They are and they always have been the nation's Establishment Club.

Founded by Tories and fascist sympathisers, they now hold sway over the state broadcaster.

Doesn't change the fact, if their valuation hasn't been met, they won't entertain the offer.

We might have already met their minimum valuation. They might just be trying to squeeze us for more.

 

[blulouie]

squad player? so he’s that to them

and a starter for us?

As was N'diaye at Marseille.

So you genuinely believe that if Everton play the waiting game Southampton will collapse in a panic and do a cut price deal? Personally I don't think making a bid soon after is particularly desperate if you want to get a deal done. Going above what the buyer considers the genuine value is desperate.

There will probably be a delay as you say due to their being other irons in the fire. May well be a couple of other bids on the go so see how it all pans out before escalating any.

I don't think Southampton will worry too much about replacing a squad player. For their needs there are far more options going into a Championship season and they likely already have a list as long as their arm of sub £5M players.

I’m just trying to explain why we might wait to make a second bid based on 20 years of experience negotiating deals. You can agree or disagree, I don’t really care. It’s looks like we are waiting so there must be a reason unless you think we just can’t be bothered.

Jesus. I was hoping your craziness was just an Everton thing but clearly not.

Southampton looking for replacements

Harrison is available (Jack before anyone gets excited).

Oh, go look at Dave's ouevre in the now defunct current affairs forum.

His finest work is not reserved for trifles such as signing players like Dibling.

 

[Bluemersey]

From what I've seen he reminds me of Chris waddle for those of a more mature standing. Would definitely improve us.

Come on mate, they may be annoying us, but wishing Jack Harrison on them? Thats a bit much isn't it??

A headless chicken?

 

[Bluemersey]

A headless chicken?

I thought waddle was a cracking player mate

 

[FinchFarmBlue]

I've heard Jack Harrison is available.

They want to improve their squad I think

So a poor mans Trevor Steven in my eyes then?
