Tyler Dibling

[Trowel]

Wish he'd taken some more of those opportunities to stretch the legs of the full back when there was space behind, but otherwise excellent tonight. That should show Moyes he can be trusted to help produce a result.

[TheRam]

I got Robert Pires vibes from him tonight.

He was exceptional. Talk about taking your chance to impress.

So many good things. It will be criminal if we don’t see him playing most games from now on.

Definitely room for him or Grealish to go into the ten to lessen the burden on KDH playing every minute.

[blueToffee]

The sequence from around 50 seconds in the video was everything you want to see from Dibling in nutshell.

As a sidenote, it's kinda hilarious the official highlights start in injury time of the first half though.

[Blueomar]

Had a good preseason, played well today in a cup match. 6 weeks from now, we're still going to be asking, so why isn't dave playing TD more?

[Lazarou II]

Moyes is going to be doing some top trolling with that performance.

[Paddockoldie]

I must have been watching a different game, although the view in lower west isn't great for the whole pitch view. Other than the highlight bits, I thought he was poor, passing it back instead of taking people on, especially 2nd half. He was standing about, dropping too deep to get the ball and when it did come to him, he'd pass it back. George is way more dynamic and when he got it, he attacked the defenders. Dribbling clearly has ability, but his application appears sluggish. Made up for Charly with a cool finish and great set up by Dibbling

[Gash]

I hope those restricted views in the lower west are cheaper than a decent seat!

Him and George are two different players, there's more to it than just getting the head down and running though. Last night wasn't one of those games where you could criticise his application, he was great with and without the ball.

[MmmBlueBranthwaite]

Unreal through ball and then that goal saving tackle in the space of about 8 seconds

[superpull]

Fellas all around me were furious with him.
Constantly fuming that he wasn't running at the fullback and using the space behind.

Started to infect me and caught myself tutting when he checked it and pulled it onto his left to stand it up

Till I just realised he was retaining possession and we don't hate it when Grealish does it

They are quite similar in how they play, but Jack has better output, but he's got years of experience over Tyler. He's a confidence player imo, so he needs games and support/understanding. Just felt like he could have imposed himself more and given the FB more problems

[AjaxAndy]

I feel that one clip sums up exactly what he wasn't doing, what the manager would have been demanding, and hopefully now the realisation of what he needs to do to succeed here.

I've been saying make the manager have no choice but to pick you, and if he continues to do stuff like that, at both ends, then there's very little chance he won't be playing regular minutes.

Admittedly the opposition were pretty poor, but that application still had to be there, and he's got the ability... If he can match the two against premier league opposition we might just see him blossom as the season progresses

[bigmanbob]

I've had many a pop at him on here and while last night wasn't perfect he was MOTM for a reason. Loved the way he beat the FB on the outside and inside loads of times. AMN helped massively with his runs off the ball. You could feel in the ground everyone wants him to do well, me included and last night was an encouraging step forward for him. The question now is how Moyes gets Grealish, George, KDH and him in the same team. We'd have to change shape but they're all creative. Moyes needs to look at how thats possible

Their skillset is similar. He's a young lad that needs to develop and he can learn a lot from Jack. Though, there is a noticeable difference between them when they get the ball. Grealish looks up and takes the ball towards his man almost always, he's constantly looking to beat him and progress the ball. Dibling isn't that direct, yet, but he's got in him.

Great performance from the lad. Hope this gives him and Moyes the confidence that will help him kick on. There's a real player in there.

Well we rotate KDH then.

I'm starting to get that uneasy feeling that Moyes feels like he is one of those undroppable players who can't come off during a game either. Which can't be right when we have lots of options in the squad now and we need to be showing players if they perform they keep the shirt.

I think Dibling could be a beast in that role in the centre. Ball hog that can go either way and over 6 foot so hard to get the ball off.

[StirlingBlue]

I’m amazed by everyone’s reaction to the clip of of him playing the through ball then making the saving tackle and thinking that Moyes will be happy with that.

Don’t get me wrong, I want to see Dibling given chances but that saving tackle was only possible because the Wolves player was so slow.

I guarantee Moyes will be more focused on the fact that Dibling was ball watching originally and left the Wolves player free to make the run, if he’d actually been switched on defensively he doesn’t need to make the dramatic save IMO
