Manchester: City winger Jeremy Doku has sent a clear message to their Premier League rivals about the title race. He believes that the competition is far from over.
Doku was impressive in Manchester City’s recent match against Nottingham Forest, where they ended a seven-game winless streak. This victory was crucial for the team.
City took control early in the game, with Bernardo Silva and Kevin De Bruyne scoring before halftime. Doku played a key role, assisting in the first two goals.
In the second half, City continued to dominate. Doku scored the final goal of the match with an assist from Erling Haaland, securing a 3-0 win and closing the gap to Liverpool.
After the match, Doku talked about how the team dealt with criticism during their tough period. He emphasized that they focused on their work and ignored outside noise.
He stated, “We didn’t listen to the noise of the outside. We just kept working and grinding. We recover and hope to continue this.” Doku believes staying focused is key to their success.
He added, “At the end of the day when everything goes well they’re going to hype you up. When everything goes bad you’re the worst. We don’t listen.” This shows the team’s determination to stay united.
Doku also mentioned, “We are going to look game by game, try to win as much as possible, and we will see at the end.” This mindset reflects their approach to the ongoing season.
Next, Manchester City will face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. This match is crucial as they prepare for a busy week ahead.
Following the Palace game, City will travel to Turin for a UEFA Champions League match against Juventus. They need a win after a recent loss in Lisbon and a draw against Feyenoord.
After the Champions League clash, City will have a home match against Manchester United. This derby will be the first top-flight meeting between Pep Guardiola and Ruben Amorim.
