Apart from that Youtube thumbnail image showing him with the widest grin I've seen for a while.

But to be fair to the lad, as he says in the video, this is his first taste of being at another club on loan so he's going to have to be given time to adjust to our relaxed way of life down here

Doyle really does look like a giant 12 year old

Doyle had a dodgy debut in the League Cup. Had one game when pulled early by Robins who felt he was trying to play with an injury undeclared.

He is what 19? Played left side, right side and center of the central 3. He has impressed me. Way ahead of Panzo defensively and not far behind bringing the ball out with his feet.

Rose looked a different defender once he come on v Wrexham.

I dont care if he looks 12 he is doing a good job for us.

Lets hope the new loanee from Man City is of the same calibre?

Easy enough to say that, but I was impressed with him – he’s had the balls to put himself in that embarrassing position of interviewing a fellow young player, and carried it off just fine IMO. The pair of them come across as genuine guys with a great attitude. Hope they both go far in the game, starting with us and (who knows?) perhaps continuing with us.

Have you ever seen an early interview with Gary Lineker? He was awful in front of the camera, now look at him!

Not that I'm suggesting that Callum Doyle will become the future lead football anchor on the BBC

Man City must be pleased with the way Doyle is developing if they've allowed another player to come here.

I can't help thinking that either may be available for a permanent move eventually as Man City are packed with international quality players and I doubt these young lads will get a run In the first team next season.

I’m fairly sure we will be able to have Doyle for another season here

Good signing. he's been on the fringes of the first team and has played in champions league games. Him and Guffy on the other side should bring a lot more physicality to our back line. We need that if we are tp challenge the top 6.
Hoping for more to come, in particular a striker of some repute.

We desperately need some experience in the back 3, we could end up fielding 4 young loans in the defensive 5. Im sure they are all great prospects and fast as fuck etc, but we've looked absolutely shocking defensively since Fadz got injured.
I'd love us to find an old head to come in till the end of the season.

Man City must have been getting good reports back from everyone linked to the loan move etc. Similar to the Chelsea relationship we have developed.

Good when we need loans. Works both ways as they will also contact CCFC to let them know they want to loan a player out and if we have interest.

Doyle did ask if his success was one of the reasons for JWE coming here, so clearly it is being regarded as a successful loan.

I know this thread isn’t really about him; but Doyle really is an excellent addition. He has had the odd shakey moment but crazy to think he’s only just 19.

Not only his ability, but I imagine, as a baby faced youngster, he’s often target by the opposition both tactically and also attempts to get into his head. He deals with it all very impressively.

Be brilliant if we can get him back next season, whatever league we’re in.

Totally agree. Makes the odd mistake and occasionally naive but overall he has been impressive especially given his age. Some of the passing is way above anything we have seen from our defenders for years, but I guess you would expect that from a Man City player.

do you still think Panzo was an upgrade on JCS?

This thread is about Doyle and JWE, so if you’ve been saving that quote to use, you’ve wasted it.

And for the record, yes 100%.

I don't want to over exaggerate but I can't remember seeing a Coventry player who can play long passes as well as Doyle. His ability to actually beat a defender with the pass and put a teammate in behind is incredible.

Whip out the spreadsheet and find the post where I did then please?

And if I did, I was clearly way off the mark - happy to admit that. But I’m surprised I ever thought that - hence why proof would be lovely.

And if I’m going to be dragged into the pettiness I’ll go all in; evidence that ‘every signing according to me is an upgrade’ would be great too.

You’re surely not just spreading spurious nonsense are you?

Haha ignoring the big old caveat of ‘if they live up to their potential’ line I see.

Keep going - I’ve been on this forum for years. That’s a lot of signings I’ve said are upgrades.

PS I will credit the spreadsheet work, you must maintain an epic database. Impressive in a way, tragic in another.

Great at the cross field balls but don’t see him putting people in behind the defence like Doyle.
