Southampton's talented gem sheds light on experiencing fan-favourite recognition | OneFootball

In less than a year, prodigy Tyler Dibling has achieved what many dream of. He reveals it is the support of the fans that motivates him to perform brilliantly.

Football in England is not just played, it's preached. That's why, one sees youth academies like Southampton's flourishing flawlessly. And their result? Fresh talent graduates who can compete in Europe.

Still, it's not that everyone succeeds. After all, we have contrasting examples of two Saints prodigies, Tyler Dibling and Amo-Ameyaw.

Considering all this, the rise of Tyler Dibling feels even more impressive. At just 18, scoring in front of home fans, and later becoming an integral part of the senior team, it feels like a dream.

Safe to say, the teenage sensation is living off what many youngsters look up to. But as they say, with fame comes the responsibility of handling it. After all, some can't cope with everything coming at once.

Impressively, that's what Dibling has mastered brilliantly. Instead of looking for material factors to motivate himself to do more, the 19-year-old lets his fans do the job.

Dibling says the cheering from the fans keeps him motivated

Recently, speaking to the Daily Echo, Tyler Dibling admitted he feels extra motivated watching the dreamlike reception from the St. Mary's faithful.

In his words on the role of fans: "It's just a bit surreal to experience and I'm glad that they gave him that moment. It gives you confidence because you know they like you."

But, sadly, it's just a few more months till it continues like this. Given Dibling's decision, and Southampton's situation, the prodigy looks set to be seen once in a year at St. Mary's from the next season.
