2025/26 Tyler Dibling

[Daytripper]

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

It’s all about consistency now and adding end product in assists/goals. Very calm on the ball for a lad his age.

Going to say this at the risk of some absolutely ferocious vaulting in years to come, but (and I've only had the one pint so far this evening) I'm convinced he's going to end up being the best signing we've made since Lukaku.

Ndiaye was still playing for Borehamwood at the same age Dibling is now and Grealish had a solitary assist in 800 odd minutes of Premier League football.

The talent is there in spades, just need to be patient with him.

Totally agree . . . . unfortunately that's not something that many of our fanbase are good at.
A couple of 'average' games and the knives will be out from some.

He plays nothing like any version of Bale

Villa Jack Grealish is probably about his ceiling

A player that earned a £100m transfer. A decent ceiling to aim for.

Well that’s 12 players then…

How?

KDH, garner and/or Gana/tim

Or Gallagher , KDH, Garner

Well because the original conversation was who is in midfield if Grealish, Dibling and Ndiaye play together.

The contents of that pint could potentially save you in the long run..


He has all the ability,
it's down to him how high he wants that bar to go..

That would be something I’d like to see with the player we have at the moment ..

But if we signed Gallagher for example … you’d have those three for the wide positions and with Jack or illy able to play the 10 if needed …

But you’d have KDH, garner and Gallagher competing for the other midfield options .

I think it would provide us with great options and depth in midfield as all players mentioned are actually good on the ball .

Sorry for not being more clear earlier … that’s on me

That makes two of us.

More like this please Moyes.

 

[Titus Bramble]

I’d never seen him play when he was at Southampton, so the Forest game was my first proper look at him.

His talent is obvious, but the most exciting thing for me is he has things you can’t teach: footballing intelligence. As others have mentioned, there are elements of Grealish and Ndiaye in how he kept hold of the ball in tight areas against 2 or 3 players and managed to either wriggle free or pop it off to a teammate.

As much as I don’t rate Nathan Paterson, he gets forward and between him and Dibling, they played some nice one touch play and Dibling has the awareness of what’s around him to play that dummy in the second half to let it run through to Paterson to allow us to break.

He has all the talent, so it’s up to him how well he develops, but promising signs from a lad who’s not even turned 20 yet.

Exactly.

Let's see what he's like up against better teams than Forest before we judge, and over a longer spell of games.

Signs are promising. We know he's a willing worker too, which is good, but we really need him joining in with attacks.
