Both came on as a sub with 10 minutes to go yesterday, both covered roughly the same distance
Alcaraz stats were
Fouls won 1
Passes 7
Pass accuracy 100%
Tackles 1
Tackles won 100%
Dibling didn't appear to actually touch the ball let alone pass it or make a tackle, in the bit I saw he seemed lost, wasn't sure where to be or what to do.
I think that he has the ability to be a top player, but he is struggling at Everton, the pressure is on him there, ( No disrespect to Everton here)he would have been better staying at Southampton or going to a Premier League club where he would get more game time and have time to develop.
A few year ago he left Saints for Chelsea and returned realising it wasn't right for him, he put career development before money, when he left Saints for the second time he put money before career development.
Again no disrespect to Everton , they paid a lot of money for potential, but Dibling hasn't got the mental strength yet, to make it at the top or to be playing in a team where the pressure is on to perform.
Its a bit late now, but I think the best thing for him would be to go out on loan to either a Premier League club where the pressure is not so big, dare I say Bournemouth, Brentford or Sunderland, or a Championship club.
He is a player who needs to be nurtured and his confidence built, 10 minutes or so at Everton is not going to do that, you can see he is drained.
If he was loaned out he might get his mojo back and Everton might just start to get value for money next season as he starts to realise his potential.
I know what Solent Toffee has said about buying potential, but Everton don't spend £40 million to buy potential, thats the case for most clubs in the Premier League, you are paying that much money to get someone who can make a contribution, you pay £15-20 million for potential and not potential in two years time.

Young Talent needs game time to improve. |  | | |

Hes been missing in action since Jan 16th 2025. That away gane Sulemana and Dibbling were ripping Man U apart. Dibbling got injured and hasnt been the same since.
Nick im not sure he put his career first over money, it was more to do with home sickness and not coping as being part of a massive Chelsea system. To me he looks immature and dosent have the resolve yet.
The first half of last season i loved watching him, he was like lettiss but with pace and he seemed to beat people for fun. He then got marked closer, picked up a knock and was probably focused on a move and not getting injured again. |  |

I don’t think there is anything unusual about teams buying young talent and not throwing them straight into the first team, it’s been happening for years.
Forest signed both McAtee and Hutchinson for big money, neither of them are much game time. Spurs did it with Archie Gray. Brentford bought Lewis-Potter for big money and phased him into the team/club.
It’s a bit easy to say Dibling would have been better off staying at Saints and getting games in the Championship. Maybe a few years ago, but Saints had just come off one of their worst seasons ever, hired a very inexperienced manager, having had what was it, three/four managers the previous season. Even the new big thing for Saints, Jay Robinson, hasn’t been getting much game time this season.
At least at Everton, he has consistency with managers and coaches and he’s training and playing with much better players. And he’s still only 19. | | | |

Hes your 3rd most expensive signing of all time. I think you would of expected a goal or an assist by now. The fact is hes been off it for 12months. | |

Jay Robinson hasn’t had much game time this season and it doesn’t appear to have improved his form. | | | |
