Kevin Doyle

[Connor]

No. Bloody No.

 

[toffeejack]

Nope. Cover for Pienaar anyone? God help us if he's overplayed and picks up a niggle.

umm, who was the last player we bought?

as another striker option, i'd love to see if javier hernandez is available for a loan at man utd, he's 4th choice now ffs, and they don't really play two up top like they use to. would be a quality moyes out of the blue signing

 

[Ruairi77]

this thread is starting to resemble the Gibson one just before he signed

 

[bainesontoast]

Let's face it lads, it seems like this one is on.

Of course, this is an instance where I would be happy to be wrong.

 

[chicoazul]

GOT IS SAUCED?

 

[BlueTornado]

I'd have him as a back up striker, definitely over owen anyway. Wouldn't be bad to bring on against tired defenders, he's also not bad from crosses which suits our style of play...

 

[D410]

Pass me the bleech

 

[bluerobert]

I think people are missing the point of this transfer if it even comes off. We couldn't keep 2 players of Jelevics quality happy when we only play one striker. Doyle would be a good player to bring on if we are winning, keeping the opp stretched allowing Pienaar, Naismith, mirallas, Fellaini etc to drift into dangerous positions

I didn't realise Wolves paid so much for him. Being Irish I was happy enough when I heard the rumour, continuing the Irish contingent developing at Everton. However Wolves would want to be making quite a loss on that £9.5m for it to be worth it. Couple of million and he'll make a good squad player.

 

[D410]

He is a waste of money, period

 

[Roger Moore]

Doyle is a poor mans Andy Johnson and he was ****e, no goals but runs around a lot.

 

[Walter Ego]

A big no from me. Complete waste of money

 

[Welton Toffee]

I cannot begin to imagine the amount of fuming on here if we signed Doyle. So for that reason I'm out.

Actually think he'd be ok as back up/a sub to send on to run around a bit to give Niki boy a rest when we're winning though. So long as we didn't spend over £2m anyway.

 

[Tubey]

He is proper Adam. But I thought that about Gibson so...

 

[Tubey]

Would be a good addition to the squad. A swop with Anichebe and a few quid would be tidy business for both clubs.

Honestly, I'd rather have Anichebe. More of a goal threat bizarrely.

Doyle really is a bit... well, crap. Very little quality, just a high work rate. If we ever played him up top alone we'd be relying on midfield for goals.
