Doesn't really have that much relevance because he's already had a full season starting in the Prem. Just think it's a case of wrong player in the wrong team. Hope the lad can get himself sorted here or finds another team where he can progress his career. Young enough to turn it around.

I disagree on the relevance. But anyway that point doesn’t only apply to Dibling. There have been multiple players in that bracket over yheyears

Realistically there's 2 now - Aznou is also firmly benched (or out of the match day squad altogether) too. We still don't know what will happen with George either, but he's "experienced" so anything he does - he'll play.

We can technically lump Rohl in there too.

I honestly believe that there's some miscommunication between recruitment and Moyes where they promise these younger players we sign they'll play them and then only do so if they have literally no other option, and it doesn't matter how well they play as they'll be back on the bench at the first possible chance. Bizarre behaviour.

Then our fans go "wow why didn't we get Rayan" or whoever else - lads if we'd gotten Rayan over the summer he'd be on 5 games tops by now as he doesn't track back as well and Moyes won't trust him.

The point doesn't just apply to the Manager though, it's the whole infrastructure you have to change for that approach.

People that think a shiny new manager coming in suddenly changes all that are wrong, there is so much more that has to be done..

There is but the manager also has to be receptive of it. At the moment we could make all the changes to make the infrastructure more youth-oriented and it won't matter one bit.

To be fair I think we kind of are in the middle of changing the whole infrastructure.

People may be quite wrong as we only have very limited info, but it does seem from the outside that the manager is a slightly odd-fitting piece in what the new structure and approach looks like it wants to be

Less than a year ago the kid was once putting in performances in the Premier League which generated coverage like this;

Dibling’s profile, versatility and age have seen him emerge as a serious option for Tottenham, who are set to reignite their interest at the end of the season.


Champions Manchester City, Manchester United, Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig have also scouted the teenager regularly this season.

I'm sure Moyes/Everton didn't buy him on a whim - he needs managing, support and time.

Thats the point though, you have to build for it..
If you really want to go full on with that route, you have to start building from the inside before anything else.

A lot more work than just a managers name tag.

I dont doubt we are, that's why i keep barking on about the transfers not being as one sided as everyone thinks.

Looks hungry in that pic, need to find that face again..

Yeah I agree on the overall, just saying it's a joint process kind of thing, not just one side changes while the other remains the same.

Moyes is after results and points and Dibling isn't providing enough on the pitch.

If Moyes looked at the bigger picture though and realised that Dibling could be a huge asset next season IF he's integrated now while our position in the league is safe, the lad might have a chance.

Same goes for Armstrong and Rohl. Play them in their proper positions and give them an opportunity to grow.

 

[evertony]

There's a reason TFG didn't given Moyes any transfer funds in the January window. It's not rocket science.

And part of the problem is that we always seem to be “ in the middle of changing the whole infrastructure “ . Brands was doing it until Moshiri sided with FSW and sacked him, then it was Thelwell who changed the structure and brought in some potentially very good appointments, after he was sacked the direction and personnel charged with implementation changed again . At one time Brands/Thelwell had their own threads and were regularly pilloried or praised depending on your view, Angus Kinnear seems to have a free ride, few can name any others involved, so that leaves Moyes as the only one in the firing line .
Dibling is at the opposite end of the spectrum to Grealish who needed little direction or support, and it seems clear we currently don’t have the structure on our coaching set up to get the best out of a very talented 19 year old. (20 tomorrow!)
