The Tyler transfer will not be decided until late in the window ie September 1st given Saints current pricing policy. 

IF Everton are wooing Grealish and Spurs want Savinho that’s two of the most likely buyers out of it- apparently. I don’t think Arsenal, City, United or Liverpool are buying him given there current options in same ish positions which leaves, maybe Villa - and German / Italian/Spanish clubs wont pay what we want. Leaves maybe a surprise offer from the mid table EPL teams or a desperation offer from a newly promoted ones- neither of which look probable - only possible.

At present id say the odds on Tyler signing an extension with a big pay rise and reassured he can leave next season from a top six  are coming in a bit.

In betting terms he’s odds-on favourite to leave this window - but the stay at Saints bet is not quite as big a price anymore. Obviously can all change in an instant!

 

It must be devastating when a dream move to Everton looks like its slipping away.

From a footballing perspective Dibling would be better of signing a new contract and staying at Saints for at least another season, getting game time without the pressure of a big fee - and taking his time to learn and develop as a footballer - and become a first team regular - and maybe stay for 2 or more if we go up at the end of this season.

He'd still be well off.....

But from a financial perspective he is far better off signing for a premier league club - even a club in a relative mess like Everton - who will  give him a a 4 or 5 year contract for a stupid amount of money - and he and his family will be set for life and he will never need to play another minute of football. The chances are he will never fulfil his footballing potential - but he will be in the money.

Someone told me at the weekend he'd heard a rumour that Dibling is not that bothered about football - and as a lad from Exeter he doesn't have any great affinity for Saints beyond being in the academy.  

So there is no reason for he and his family to not chase the money if its there.

100% and to be fair many pundits NOT associated with Saints have also said he would be better off spending a season tearing up the Championship and then seeing where we are in 12 months time.

But for a young lad, well most people tbf, money talks and I reckon its screaming at Tyler and his family right now.

You'd take the money, too. Who wouldn't!?!

Yeah of course most people would.......but if you thought you could do even better in a years time would the decision be so simple ?

I'm surprised, given his potential, that a club like Man City or Chelsea don't sign him to stop their competitors getting him and loaning him back. Could be an easier sell to Saints and TB plus will have a player more ready to make an impact

I must admit I thought that might well happen.

I actually have zero interest with him sticking around with both Jay Robinson's emergence and Dibling's clear disinterest in putting a shift in amidst speculation. Even further if it means we can somehow afford to keep Fernandes around.

£50m and 25% is obviously a dream figure, hopefully we can get something done at around £45m and 15%. I think anything in that range will be a brilliant deal for us, but also present enough upside to Everton if they can get him playing like he did for 2/3 months.

I have little idea of what to expect for Dibling's career. He looked unplayable in incredibly short bursts so it's surprising to remember how little he contributed and how often he completely vanished from games.

I think its a bot unfair on Tyller, whilst WS said his mind is not in the right place, he still may be our player and its to our interest that he feels wanted by the fans. If he comes back into th team and the fans get on his back perhaps his performances will be poor and the club would have lost millions of value. Personally I thought 35-40 mil plus add ons would have been very good, but the club have played hard ball and time will tell if we will regret it
