2025/26 Tyler Dibling

[N0L1M1TK]

Think he will definitely be given more chances based on the last two performances. He’s merited that. Do think when every one is fit and back he’d likely come off the bench, but it’s a squad game and there’s always opportunity.

Still some issues with ball watching and letting his opposite number run off him, but he’s young and the experience of the last couple games will only help him get better.

Eventually will end up as a ten for me. Some good work without the ball too - which can’t be understated.

Like to see him at number 10.

I thought he wss impressive, only his second full game of the season after hardly getting a kick, he is a extremely gifted 19 year old who has struggled to get into the team of a manger who doesn't tend to trust young players.

A lot of his skillset reminds me of a young jack grealish, I think his ability on the ball, ability to take on a man, and his actual physical strength against grocks are all good sides.

Can he get better? Well obviously, he's 19 and barely started games, he wouldn't be playing for Everton right now if he didn't have big improvements to make.

But instead of focusing on what he can't do (which is a huge problem within the Everton fanbase going back years) let's focus on the very very bright signs of a young lad who is going to be our future.

If you think David Moyes won't be working on the other sides of his game then I don't know what to tell you, he did try to track back and he did get up and down all game but he does have to conserve energy because that's a lot of graft for anyone to put in never mind a 19 year old whose barely kicked a ball.

Keep him in the team, let him develop, get him minutes.

Good or bad performances in isolation,he will develop and he a talent for us.

I think his confidence will be a lot higher than it has been.

Good lad.

forest didn't want to go anyway near him did they.

 

[NathDogg]

Mad how him playing a few games and getting a few more minutes has shown he can play and do the graft as well.

Should have been in the team ages ago, or got more minutes if not starting.

Patient, calm, backs himself in tight situations and has a bit of pace - I really like what I have seen from the kid.

 

[Tigger]

Clearly very talented, hope he can turn it into effectiveness

 

[frank_da_tank]

Are many players ripping the prem up bar your generational talents? Genuine question

A think because what we paid we expect instant but he is only 19

 

[davek]

Got through the work of two men last night.

Unbelievable levels of energy.

 

[Eggs]

The acid test I think is on Saturday.
With Grealish back fit will Moyes drop Dibling and play McNeil at RW?
IMO it would be madness but let's see.

….i’d imagine he’ll drop Patterson, move Rohl to RB and play McNeil in the no10 position.

 

[Blue peter]

I like the way Tyler’s dribbling

 

[Eggs]

He's slotted in much much faster than I expected given how little game time he's had.

His technique is obviously fantastic but I'm most impressed with his awareness of the game around him - knowing where he can take a touch to get into space, and of course that dummy. That's the sort of thing that can make him elite. So good to watch too

….point I made earlier about him being a very powerful young man. Blokes like him you play against and bounce off because of their natural strength, I reckon he’s also quite tall.

Very much like Grealish, he plays ‘cat and mouse’ with his full back. I think it’s a nonsense when posters say he plays it back or inside because Moyes tells him to, he’ll have always done that, it’s all part of the game to leave the defender guessing what he’s doing next. He’ll pick his moments to go past his opponent, he’s just not a Dave Thomas type.

It's not that we bought him. It's that we bought him when we had gaping holes all over the pitch and a limited budget with which to fill them. If we were going to spend such a large proportion of our summer on him, he has to play more.

Last night was very encouraging. Loads of talent - a proper footballer. Up to him now how quickly he can break into the side.

 

[EGWToffee]

Funny how we spend a sizeable chunk of money on another slow winger.

Definitely not slow mate. His style of play means he does stop the ball dead (like Grealish). But he’s certainly got a turn of pace too

 

[jazzy]

Interesting. Playing Rohl there for the last 10 minutes is one thing. Starting him there is another.

This. If Moyes starts McNeil before Dibling again then it’s clear he will never change his ways and should be at the club 12-18 months maximum

No point giving Dibling 10 minutes here and there. He will never develop. It’s why most people want Armstrong to stay at Preston - real game time is key. There is 11 months difference between them
