doyle to arsenal

[WoodleyRoyal]

Reports are claiming that Doyle is being linked with a £12 million move to Arsenal. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is supposed to have been impressed by him when the two teams met. He even said that he had been following him since his Reading days.

He said this not long ago too.

I like him personally. He is an intelligent striker.

'He's good everywhere. I followed him since he was at Reading.'


hope we have a sell on clause!

[NR_Royal]

I think we should buy this 'Doyle', whoever the oxf*rd he is.

A love Doyler to bits, but if he goes to Arsenal it shows just how far Wenger's transfer policy is off the mark.

Like I say, I love Doyle, but he is not a top 4 player.

Pretty sure we took straight up cash over sell on clauses.

Impressed Mourinho enough to lodge enquiries about him when he was here He's better than Nic - ass Bender in my IMO. Better finisher, but maybe not quite as much skill

That 1st season in the Prem, I did think he could go all the way. But he's not gonna win you the Prem and Arsenal need a world class striker who unlike RVP can stay fit...

It wouldn't be a bad move to be honest. Doyle is the type of player that can just work his socks off for 90 minutes and take a chance if given it. Sure he's not anywhere near RVP but as others have said he's better then Eduardo and Bendtner and would do well in those Arsenal games where teams just try and park the bus.

This belongs in GF, doesn't it?

I r heard he is coming back to Reading!.....

There you go Spacey it now can live happily here.... but otherwise yes

[TBM]

LOL where's Jay now??

Its no secret that Villa want Doyle - as do Everton & Birmingham. Why you think Wolves would let him leave for a loss of £1.5m is a mystery, considering he's been one of their best players this season - plus he's only 26 years old, an Irish international and still has about 10 years left in him........Anything less than £10m for Doyle and Wolves wont accept - they have no need to.

I didn't know for certain what he was sold for, so in that case, £6.5m is about his top value. He hasn't hit the net regularly this season, again, but is a worker, and is an asset. Just because you say Villa have shown interest previously doesn't mean they'd be prepared to spend £10m on someone who isn't a regular goalscorer at that level.

I cannot see how anyone can value him at £10m when he doesn't have the scoring record to back it up.

You're still "assuming" those clubs are interested in him. You don't know they are, so as I have an opinion on value, and you have your opinion on his interest. I just don't see anyone willing to pay £10m for a striker that isn't consistent at that level.

i can see doyle playing as 2nd string at any of th ebig four clubs - hes like rooney in terms or work rate and effort, and has a decent if not outstanding strike rate. at arsenal i see him as exactly what they need to supplement walcott and van persie

[Smoking Kills Dancing Doe]

Walcott and RVP are never fit though.

I'm actually starting to worry that Walcott is not gonna make it. It's just injury after injury.

Arsenal won't win the league without getting at least one world class striker in.

The fact that Walcott has been ruined by Arsenal is exactly what I feared. If Doyle goes there too, he'll be ruined too. He doesn't have an excellent injury record either, he did pick up a few when he was with us.

How can you blame Arsenal for their injuries this season though?!

Walcotts back injury was due to him playing for the England U21's AND the 1st team in the summer and was picked up during a pre-season friendly

Van Persie was injured whilst playing for Holland in a friendly

[Smoking Kills Dancing Doe]

Not blaming Arsenal at all, you'd have to be some kind of retarded bigot to do so.

But when you look at the injury record, you realise what a risk it is to build a team round either of them.

[specialjon]

He's not good enough for Arsenal. He'd be Francis Jeffers mark 2.

You mean Spacey?

[2.8 lita injection]

Deserves to play for a top 6 side, a far better player than the likes Bendtner and would score plenty for Arsenal.

If Agbonlahor & Kuyt can get into teams in the top 6 then Doyle can.

[WoodleyRoyal]

^this

[Royal Lady]

Surrounded by the right players, Doyle could easily start for a team like Arsenal. I think he's suffered a bit at Wolves because he's not been getting the back up and I think they were playing him on his own up front for a bit weren't they? I'd be chuffed to bits for him if he got a move to a club like Arsenal.

[loyalroyal4life]

he is good but not that good!!
