Outlook
With a Rating of 51.4, Doyle carries the 4th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League One (top 7%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role.

With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
