Royals star close to full fitness

Doyle has been struggling with a knee injury since March and has admitted that he should have pulled out of the Republic of Ireland squad to face Bulgaria and Italy.He said: "My knee feels so much better than in any time during the last 10 weeks."If I'd missed the Ireland games I would probably have been alright but instead I tried taking anti-inflammatories which made it worse."It was my fault. They were big games but looking back now I was stupid, I should have missed them."I'm 25 now so I should know better. I will next time."
