I think though that if he's best mates with Armstrong it would have been very damaging to Tyler if we'd gone through with the Forest sale. Sometimes just having a close ally helps you settle. He'll also see how much game time his mate is getting, and that maybe has helped him understand that if he puts the same work in, he'll get the same rewards.

He's supposed to be mates with George too from their England days. He's getting better and will be some player for us. Even Moyes said he smiles when he hears his name now.

Re: Tyler Dibling
That Moyes interview made me laugh - the headline was "Moyes smiles when he hears Dibling's name" but if you listen to the actual interview he's mostly talking about how Dibling should have scored one and needs to keep improving.Paddockoldie wrote: Wed Sep 23, 2026 8:39 am He's supposed to be mates with George too from their England days.

The lad clearly needs some love and praise, couldn't be a worst fit for a manager/player relationship really

Re: Tyler Dibling
Same treatment Barry got last season... Basically you've done well but we expect more, don't get complacent just because you've had a good cameo. Keep striving to be the best you can be.StirlingBlue wrote: Wed Sep 23, 2026 8:54 am That Moyes interview made me laugh - the headline was "Moyes smiles when he hears Dibling's name" but if you listen to the actual interview he's mostly talking about how Dibling should have scored one and needs to keep improving.

I don't see anything wrong with that tbh, and I would imagine behind the scenes there's plenty of arm round the shoulder moments too.

Guardiola was the same with players... go to the next level now.. He's their manager, not their dad, because the players performing keeps his jobStirlingBlue wrote: Wed Sep 23, 2026 8:54 am That Moyes interview made me laugh - the headline was "Moyes smiles when he hears Dibling's name" but if you listen to the actual interview he's mostly talking about how Dibling should have scored one and needs to keep improving.

We also don't know what he's like behind the scenes or the role other coaches play in nurturing young players.Paddockoldie wrote: Wed Sep 23, 2026 10:29 am Guardiola was the same with players... go to the next level now..

I'd imagine there are people around him who do the softer stuff even if moyes never does.

Re: Tyler Dibling
I didn't mean it as a criticism of Moyes or Dibling, that management style can get the best out of some players and there's no shame in not enjoying a bit of tough love - simply that they're poorly suited to get the best from each other.
It worked with Barry because he has huge amounts of self confidence and needed to be brought to earth a little bit, doesn't mean the same thing is good for Dibling.

Re: Tyler Dibling
Really think he will kick on this season.
The squad being as threadbare as it is he's bound to get more game time by default.
A goal will do him the world of good.

Barring left back we have a number of options, some might say too many across the midfield area.
