Absolutely. Especially Dibling, he can’t be on a massive salary surely we can afford to keep him next year.
Not entirely. THB has changed agents and we know for certain Dibling does want to leave in the summer. He is on the wages of a youth player for the next 2 seasons and has been offered a big new contract - the fact he hasn't signed means he 100% wants out.
TBF, Sports Republic would probably pay him that to stop moaning about them. Lol they have wasted more messing things up, so it would be a drop in the ocean to stop the spread of how bad they are
Know I said this last night and it's been said all season but I absolutely love Matty Fernandes. He's brilliant and genuinely has a bit of everything. To come into such an awful situation at his age and still show a lot of consistency is highly impressive. Such a shame he won't be around next season.
Yeah, says a lot when commentators who don’t care at all about Saints keep pointing out how good he is and the bright spark in a **** season. Hoping we get Lavia type money for him as he still has 4 years left on his deal (like Lavia did). Imagine he also has a pretty sizeable sell on to Sporting as well
Yeah I think we'll be wanting £50m for him. Shown at least as much as Lavia did imo. I'd rather keep him tbh but think there's more chance of me starting to **** gold.
The club apparently think the same as us, and Fernandes is the one they most want to keep hold of. If (when) we sell Ramsdale and Dibling and a few others then we shouldn't NEED to sell Fernandes from a purely FFP perspective. All depends on Fernandes and the amount of interest and size of offers we receive!
Honestly love him too but I hope he goes. Deserves better than this ****ing clown show. Proper player with a great attitude.
You want to sell our best player because you are annoyed at how bad we are? Not sure about that logic
I do get the ‘Dibling is young’ stuff, and I feel bad for picking him out last night, but the difference in attitude and effort between him and Fernandes is marked. I get that they’re two different types of players, but it’s so noticeable currently.
Fernandes is brilliant and we all love him. But there are plenty of young players in the squad who have questionable attitudes. Bella-Kotchap, Sulemana, for a start. Probably others (Archer, Wood?). Then there are the likes of Downes, who just decided not to play for about half a dozen games. Stephens who got sent off twice in consecutive games. If we compared Dibling to any of these lot, then suddenly he appears not such a bad lad after all.
