Everton's threadbare squad has left Moyes with limited options up front and out wide, and the head coach has made clear that Dibling's development will be central to solving the problem.
Speaking before the trip to Bournemouth, Moyes gave a measured but encouraging assessment of the 20-year-old's recent progress. "Tyler has started to show bits which have been better. He has started to come to life a little bit in some ways in a couple of the games," he said.
Moyes was equally direct about the areas in which he still wants more.
"I still would need more from him. I would need more assists, more opportunities to score from him as well. I said last week if we are going to score more goals then we need our wide players to be more creative or score goals to give us that. So Tyler needs to keep that up, but he's certainly doing much better in the last few weeks, that's for sure," he said.
The comments come with Everton's attacking options stretched thin following the departures of Ndiaye and Beto, leaving Moyes short of a genuine right-wing option and increasingly reliant on Jack Grealish, Brennan Johnson, Thierno Barry and Tyrique George to cover multiple positions across the front line.
With Grealish established on the left and unable to play every minute of every game, George is required to share that side of the pitch, limiting how much support he can offer Johnson on the right, where Moyes has generally preferred to use him in a more advanced central role given his impact there so far this season.
Dibling did not feature in the 2-2 draw with Manchester United, watching from the bench as Ainsley Maitland-Niles scored a stoppage-time equaliser on his debut and George netted his first Everton goal, moments that will only have sharpened his appetite to force his own way into Moyes's plans.
Having endured a difficult first season since his move to Merseyside, the winger now finds himself with a clear opportunity to establish himself, with Moyes's own words suggesting patience is being extended in the expectation that a breakthrough is close.
