Read comments on here and from punters that Dibling 'simply has to start against Burnley' my question 'on what evidence'. I watched 20 minutes of Dibling against an Arsenal side that did just enough to win, he produced zilch. Watched the whole game then and watched a recording yesterday, our defenders did their job (O'Briens brain fart excepting) , Grealish quiet (no KDH or Ndiaye) , Beto has to start till we can find a striker (West Ham after him, I would rather sell them Barry) .
Nothing from Chelsea and Arsenal, not surprising. We should expect a performance against Burnley at least a draw.

Reallly don’t like the lad do you. He’s had hardly any game time, and when he is given a few minutes it’s always at the end of games that have already gone. And I’m sure Moyes playing McNeil ahead of him must have boosted his confidence no end. But hey he's crap so get rid eh.

Not crap, just not seen anything to justify the outlay. Comments such as the game has gone so by inference anyone coming on with 20 minutes to go shouldn't try or bother are ridiculous. One you made last night on Ndiaye another one, the lad lined up on the right, played exactly as he plays for us, I watched the whole game. Look if Dibling comes on against Burnley, plays anywhere near his hype, I will be the first to hold my hand up and say kudos.
It isn't his fault somebody recommended him or someone saw fit to lay out 40 odd mill - Moyes pushed for him we are told. Have a good xmas. I will be in a better mood once the light of my life unlocks the liquer cabinet.

Love everyones views so you watched the game again DMS and in 20 minutes dibling showed nothing and shouldn't get a start. so I gather you prefer Mcneil on the right and watched him for 70 plus minutes who did nothing either.
could try charly there and hope his passing against Burnley is better than against arsenal. Big decision for DM but I'm pretty sure he will pick Mcneil again.

I said to me he showed nothing, what other peoples views are is theirs including the main man Moyes. There appears to be a media push for Dibling to start against Burnley, as I said if he does and produces kudos. I don't know the timeline but suppose the negotiations for Dibling were strong (Dibling RW, Ndiaye LW) and then whump along comes Grealish.
McNeil to me and others is also not good enough and against a half throttle Arsenal in 70 mins frustrating, but again Moyes likes him.

Personally I've watched all the England under 21s he's produced exactly what he's produced for Everton nothing, passes it back or loses it, he's young but so are some of the other youngsters who are playing, Hutchinson at forrest, at least he has put some crosses in, goes past a player, i'm yet to see any of this and for 40 million a cross is the minimum he should be doing, Barry the same, I don't no which scouts thought 70 odd million for these 2 was a good idea, 70 million who does this on 2 un proven players.

As a blue i want all the players to do well but I get they have to show something aswell when they do get on the pitch no matter how many minutes they get Barry isn't good enough for me but has improved with the minutes he has had. give Dibbers a run of games while ndiaye is away. i'm gathering when he was at Southampton he had the right back overlapping to give him space to do whatever it is he did to be priced at £45 mill and that ain't going to happen with obrien behind him cause he definitely isn't a tricky or pacy winger from what i have seen so far.
can he pick a pass i don't know either because it always comes backwards but I would like to see him start infont of mcneil against Burnley.

Is Kudos the other option at right wing?

Isn't he at spurs JB lol ?.

Nice to see you scrutinise my comments dms. I will count you as a follower.
24 Dec 2025 14:59:30
I don't scrutinise, you said I hope Moyes is watching this, Ndiaye playing behind the striker, he wasn't. The line up posted had him RW, in the game he played exactly as he does for us.
25 Dec 2025 11:57:52
To be fair to BMD that was how the line up was shown prior to kick off.
