Remember the name... Conor Doyle

Conor Doyle is an American trailblazer.  While he is only in the Championship rather than the EPL, he is playing significant minutes for Derby County, a very respectable accomplishment for any American player.  What makes him a trailblazer is that he is only 18 years old and playing in the public radar of England. 

Doyle could become the next big thing for American soccer in the EPL in the next few years.  Already earning a 1st team spot barely out of high school, he is everything that is missing in the American training process. 

The big quesation now is, will he play for Ireland or the United States if/when he makes his international debut.  But that aside, an 18 year old American in the Championship right within view of the EPL, I personally never saw it coming.
