2025/26 Tyler Dibling

[pedro789]

Got to give the lad time and hope he comes good.

But he's just not the type of wide player we needed - someone fast, physical, energetic.

 

[ArtetaMoney]

Should play him on the left, not sure what he’s trying to do on the right.

 

[BigDunc'sFod]

Is he like Barkley but skinny

 

[jonnyg]

How on earth isn’t he shooting, absolutely baffling. Kid plays like he is half asleep.

Plays like he's been asked to be Grealish-lite when we all want both of them to take more chances.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

Doesn’t matter it’s what we paid so will come with that price tag unfortunately. Can get a Garner and KDH for that money or KDH, Ndiaye. Whether he chose the price tag or not that’s what he’s cost so I expect and will judge him on that fee, if he come through the academy you’d probably be saying loan him out never mind £40m.

No, it literally does matter, because you're having a dig at the player not performing to a price tag he didn't set. If you want to judge a player on his fee and not ask the people who paid it instead the questions, that's on you I suppose. If you don't want to support a young lad because someone paid too much for him, you're not right in the head.

I genuinely dont get why people think that he can come on having barely had time on the pitch at all this season and just start beating players who are sat back defending with no support whatsoever. Not even the best players in the world do that regularly. We literally see with Grealish a lot of the time he isn't so much beating his man as much as he's pulling them away and opening up space but the difference is he not only has the confidence on the ball to do that but we almost always surround him with options, its quite literally the opposite on the other side where Dibling regularly just gets given the ball and is expected to just go past one or two players and then also find the one striker upfront that we have.

He’s playing right wing though mate. If he gets the ball on the right wing and stands still with it, and looks to dribble past players then that will happen.

He could cut inside, play a first time pass or make a yard and get a cross in.

He’ll have to do something different as he’s too slow to go past anyone.

Didn’t Russell Martin say he’s going to eventually be central?

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

He also has the same trait, often annoying, that Grealish does. And that’s to dribble straight to the corner flags, hold up momentum, and draw three players. Sometimes Jack will cross in or make a move inside. Usually he draws a foul or a corner. At least it’s something. Dibling just gets dispossessed.

 

[kenada_blue]

He’s never a right winger. Actually not sure what he is, he’s just not sharp enough at all for the Prem right now.

We paid £40mill for his performances at Southampton as a right winger.

 

[GoldenToffee]

He looks like one of those players that's probably too much for the Championship but not enough for the Prem imo.

He certainly doesn't look Championship level to me.

 

[Moomin]

He definitely does have ability, was reminding me of Beagrie and not bloody crossing the ball and trying to beat the man again.

 

[kenada_blue]

Hes not someone to be really taking seriously though

 

[MACCA75]

Yeah with his zero assists in one of the worst sides in the history of the league, under the biggest fraud in football.

I definitely do think there is things he himself has to do better 100%. I just think he's been put in an awful situation to try and improve for the type of player he is when his time on the pitch has been so sporadic. I think Moyes hasn't done well by him at all. He's opted for McNeil over him during this period despite McNeil regularly having some awful performances when I'd rather we stick with Dibling and let him get used to his place in the team even if he's playing below par than chucking him on a goal down with time ticking and saying beat a few players.

Hasn’t played well yet though would start instead mcneil every match
