Still time for him to come good and I don't think he's at the level that Brighton will end up keeping. With his contract up in the summer we might be able to pick up a player that in time becomes a very good EFL or lower end PL player. Brighton have a few examples of this happening with.

 

The one thing that fitness, form and confidence won't alter much though is he's pretty slow for an attacking midfielder. Again will probably prevent him from being considered elite worthy and why we could get a good pick up on a free.

If you're 21 and spending a 3 consecutive season on loan in League 1, especially considering those previous stints were pretty successful, it's safe to say he's never going to make it at Brighton. That's not a comment on his potential or ability, just the fact that your club clearly doesn't have any faith in you.

 

Don't think he's quite as slow as people made our but I do totally get why that's the view. Hoping it is just that he's not fully up to speed/confident which does have an effect. He's got 1 massive advantage in that he's genuinely two footed which will help compensate for the lack of pace in lots of situations, as long as he gets a bit stronger and sharper in general. I didn't pay too much attention to the 2nd half yesterday but again, don't think he was quite as bad as people made out but do completely understand how people came to that conclusion at the same time.

Did alright but I think he's the type that he looks like he is flagging more than he actually is. He isn't match fit right now, but I still think we'll be questioning that even when he's at 100% to be honest, he just has that very laidback style where he looks like he isn't in a game and then will effortlessly skip past a player 5mins later.

He might not end up being signing of the season, but we’re starting to see the player I was hoping we’d get, he’s a talented lad who’s ceiling is far greater than League 1 imo.

Looks a great prospect.

 

If we can coach him to recognise when is best to pass and is best to shoot in front of goal, could do a serious job in the championship (if we make it there...).

This will probably be his level, maybe championship. Will be one of those players that's technically miles ahead of others but his serious lack of pace will probably hold him back. 

 

Was excellent today but would rather see him play as a classic number 10 where the lack of pace is less of an issue.

Gone from looking like the worst of the Brighton trio to the best… didn’t take much though as one is absolutely pony and the other looks like he’s ran a marathon after being on the pitch for five minutes

Don't think there's a point trying to pidgeonhole his level when he's just starting to get into form for us.

 

If Ayew and Cordova Reid played regularly in the PL (BDCR also managed 19 goals in a championship season at some point) then Doyle and the other young lads could make it there.
