Doyle 'the best' - Hunt
Reading, 16:26, December 23, 2008 ,
Noel Hunt claims his Reading strike partner Kevin Doyle is 'a match-winner' and the best striker he has played alongside.
The Republic of Ireland duo have linked up well at the Madejski Stadium this season as the Royals are sitting in the second automatic promotion spot in their quest for an immediate return to the Premier League. And Hunt feels with Doyle in the side, Steve Coppell's men have a great chance of promotion.
Hunt, who scored along with Doyle in Saturday's 3-1 win at promotion rivals Birmingham, told the club's official website: "He (Doyle) is a big player and scored a great goal, then made a great cross for [Kalifa] Cisse's goal.
"He is a match-winner and we need that so fair play to him. He is the best striker I have ever played with, no question."
