Everton suffered a 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Sunday, and fans have made an interesting claim about David Moyes.
David Moyes’ side were poor from set-pieces, as they conceded two sloppy goals from corner kicks, but aside from that, it was a fairly even game.
Iliman Ndiaye was really impressive, and he was unfortunate not to get a couple of assists after delivering dangerous crosses.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall failed to make much of an impact, though, and that led many to question why Moyes didn’t make a change earlier.
Fans are finding his treatment of one Everton star quite baffling.
Everton fans baffled by David Moyes’ treatment of Tyler Dibling
Tyler Dibling arrived in a whopping £40m deal in the summer, however, Moyes has started him just once in the Premier League.
The former Southampton winger has barely been getting a look in off the bench, too, and against Spurs, he was an unused substitute.
With that said, Everton fans are now questioning whether Moyes likes Dibling and if he’s made the decision that he’s not good enough already.

“Sick of the shouts players aren’t ready such as Aznou dibling etc just a load of s—- proper stuck in his ways Moyes,” @cd98233382784 added.
@LiamT30EFC commented: “Moyes begs the board for dibling and has given the lad f— all minutes, makes no f—— sense.”
“Obviously don’t sack Moyes but if all we really want is midtable this season we don’t lose anything by playing the younger players and letting them develop. Aznou and Dibling should have way more minutes by now, and we can actually deduce if Barry is s— or not,” @BillEvram said.
David Moyes has insisted he has a plan for Tyler Dibling
Moyes has maintained that he does have a plan for Dibling and is going to remain patient with him until he gets up to speed.
Speaking after the West Ham United draw last month, the Scotsman said: “We like Tyler a lot, but he’s another one we’ll bring on in time.
“My first time here I had lots of players I brought in. We took a bit of time with them, we didn’t rush them.
“We’ll just have to accept we’ll bring Tyler on when we’re ready. I thought he kept the ball well and did some good things.”
