    He's pretty good, have only seen him this season. I thought he played really well against Shels at the X in the Setanta.

    Can't remember any other games he's featured in.....

    By eL standards he is very good, one of the best players in the league. It remains to be seen how he fairs across the water though. Still a lot to learn but he is going to a fantastic set up so thing are looking good for him at the moment. A bright future ahead of him i think.......

    Yeah he's a good player one of the best in the league at present. Should do well over seas hope you get a few quid for him and a few bonus payments for certain amount of games played, Ireland Caps etc...

    €117,000. Thats it I think. Cuz of a contract clause, no further money, that will, unless Reading are thick, be the lot.

    Thats peanuts for a player of his quality.

    Brilliant,What i like about Kevin is he is not just a goalscorer.He can pass and create chances for other players,if you were stuck you could easily fit him into your midfield.

    I just hope he gets the chance he deserves and is not left on the bench.

    The great thing about Doyler is he has constantly and steadily improved over the last number of years. i remember him playing for st pats u17 and he was an average at that standard. but every time i have seen him since he seems to have improved, and is now one of the top five strikers in the league.

    With youth on his side and what seems like a great attitude he certainly has the potential to at the very least hold his own at Reading

    Now you know how we felt when he walked out on Pats. I think he's a super player. Always rated him, from the time he made his debut as an eighteen year old for Pats.

    Best player in the eircom League in my book. Its only a matter of when the guy gets in the Ireland team. If kerr has any sense he'll look at getting him in the team asap for the world cup ahead of morrison

    Morrison is ok. Its Doherty and Alan Lee that will be under threat.

    Anytime I've seen him, he's always been overshadowed by George, but then again, so has everyone else.

    I think thats because hes not a flashy player.

    He wasn't much when came from Pats & very average in first season. Best thing is he celebrates goals with no fuss & never moans to refs when fouled. His finishing has improved no end from when joined the club now.

    I wonder did Mick McCarthy realise he could have had Doyle for extra few quid...

    calm down lads, give the lad a chance to prove himself in england, and then talk him up for the ireland squads

    remember a few years ago, pats fans reckoned hawkins should have been in the ireland squads, then he went to doncaster and failed.

    its very hard to judge if an eL is ood enough for the international squad, if they are good enough and they do go to england, then they will prove it through their ability.

    time will tell if doyle is good enough for that level.
