Rumours

Who is Tommy Doyle?
Position? Club?

City wonder kid 19

[QPRDave]

Captain of Man City U23s. All round midfielder. Clickbaits say there are about 8 Championship clubs after him. Turned down a loan to Preston last year as he thought he had a chance for main Man City squad but he didn't.

Thanks Davie yeah agree clickbait you're right.

As someone who watches lots of MLS and of course almost every QPR match I can say MLS is overall better than L2, it is a strange league with a mix of NCAA athletes and high price Designated Players who would do well in The Championship, I am not defending MLS because I don't think it is near as good as the Americans think it is but I would definitely rate it higher than L2!

Agree with you that it is better than L2 and even L1.

Yes, I think that is likely where Niko will go if not the SPL.

i also agree that Wells and to some extent Hugill might wish that they had stayed at QPR. Hugill has at least got a Championship winners medal for his efforts. Will Norwich keep him or loan him out again?

I am pleased that we have made so many signings earlier than the pre season games (makes a change from recent seasons and is more like the Warnock season).

I wouldn’t write off Tommy Doyle just because other socalled wonderkids have flopped while on loan. For every usuccessful young loan player there seems to be a decent one. Remember a guy called Taarabt? Or Kyle Walker? Even Sam Field last season was a pleasant surprise.

Matt Smith did not work out, neither did Jan Mlakar. But there are great young loan opportunities out there and I think we should explore it and take advantage of it. The fact the player is from Man City is no concern as I see it. Loan players with little senior experience in a decent League can be a gamble. Matt Smith had only played in Dutch second division before he arrived while Doyle has seven matches for Man City, so he seems a little less risky.

I cannot see why Doyle (20), with seven matches for Man City should be any less inspiring than Jimmy Dunne (23), with 7 matches for Burnley. It looks to me our scouts know what they are doing so if they go for Doyle I support it.

Managed 40 games for Doncaster last season which is about his level at the moment.

[QPROslo]

Stef is great but he does not count as a young loanee.
