    How many goals did Doyle score for Cork City? How many did he score in the Championship?

    The original poster questioned the quality of defending in the prem, not the quality of strikers.

    He was top scorer in the EL when Reading bought him. It was his first season playing consistantly up front.

    Doyle is playing with better players. If it was Cork City playing in the Championship Doyle wouldn't have scored as many goals.

    The argument was based on that more goals are scored in the Premiership. That's because there is better strikers playing in the Premiership. If you replaced all the attacking players in the Eircom League with the attacking players in the Premiership do you still think that the Eircom League would have a better defensive record? If EL defences are actually better than those in the Premiership then they would concede less goals than Premiership defences at the moment. I think that is a relevent point. But you disagree for some reason.

    Doyle just missed a good chance, ball wouldn't fall quick enough.
