Infinitely Content Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 Why would we pay £35m+ for what would be a third choice right winger? I get that we all want signings, but I'd prefer ones that make sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murphy is 30 in a none psr world or Chelsea model its good succession planning and buying the potential to make money on the deal at that price if he forfills his potential.. Saying all that agree with all that needs to be done in alread light of bodies it makes no sense. Still feel if it goes well for him the big 6 just pay 60m or 70m for him in a few years.

Considering Willock by start of next season shouldn't be here, Dibling would be a superb opportunistic buy to have integrated into the CM fold, with him and Miley the young ones moving forward and club then signing an experienced guy next summer.

Sibierski Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 Bit similar profile to Palmer IMO, where he's not really a winger (can play there), but you want him centrally because of his ability on the ball to glide past players / play the pass.

Infinitely Content Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 (edited) Dibling at CM? Not at all sure about that, pretty sure he never played there for Southampton. Would prefer a proper CM. He's certainly not a CM in accordance with the Newcastle profile for those positions. Edited August 4, 2025 by Infinitely Content Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would prefer a proper CM. He's certainly not a CM in accordance with the Newcastle profile for those positions. Played advanced CM on a few occassions. He's not your typical deeper CM, but then if we've got Bruno, Joelinton, Tonali for that, we probably want someone who can play ahead of them in an attacking shape. He's young enough to mould into the CM/CAM profile a club would want long term. It's getting to OTT prices, but if we're looking at £45m mark for a CM, I really don't think you can go wrong with Dibling. Always have been and always will be, a massive advocate of this current English generation. The talent pool is an absolute joke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
