Tommy Doyle is determined to live in the moment at Birmingham City after finding his final season at Wolverhampton Wanderers far from enjoyable.

He arrives at St Andrew’s with a wealth of experience despite being just 23—having barely featured under Wolves manager Vítor Pereira, and after playing more than 50 Premier League games, earning promotion from the Championship, and winning a European U‑21 title with England.

00:00Tommy Doyle is determined to live in the moment at Birmingham City after finding his final season at Wolverhampton Wanderers, far from enjoyable.
00:10New talented midfielder has joined Blues on loan from Wolves in the summer window, with the move likely to become permanent next year.
00:20He arrives at St Andrews with a wealth of experience despite being just 23, having barely featured under Wolves manager Vito Pereira,
00:28and after playing more than 50 Premier League games, earning promotion from the Championship and winning a European under-21 title with England.
00:39Speaking after Blues' penultimate pre-season game against Port Vale, Doyle reflected,
00:44I really want to be present and in the moment every single day.
00:48We have a massive chance to do something special, but I think the main thing is to be present in the moment right now.
00:58His immediate ambition is to establish himself under Chris Davies' midfield, either as one of the two deep-lying playmakers or as a No. 10.

01:15Doyle made clear his mindset to stay professional, support the team regardless of playing time and simply enjoy football again.
01:23Chris Davies himself has set the bar high.

01:53With Doyle shining in his role during the win over Port Vale, his play seems cemented.
01:59Though exactly where he fits most effectively is yet to be decided.
02:03He promises technical quality and eye for forward passes and a willingness to take risks in midfield.
