Definitely not the finished article, nonetheless a very exciting talent who will give a lot of fb's a torrid afternoon this season. I think he has the potential to be a better player than Mahrez.

No player in Peps mind is the finish article because you can always improve!

Yesterday's play by Docu was quite possibly perfect for a winger
 
What a performance, makes it even better when the rags are failing... Can't believe they paid 30m more for Antony and we got Doku!

Phenomenal performance!
Pep said he would like to see him doing his stuff on the right wing too, because he can.
So a Jack & Jeremy starting line-up is possible. It is only early November, we'll need all of our players.

Probably, he can even outrun defenders with 2 balls on his feet.

Yup, Pep did say that post match and one of the reasons will be because he wants to start Grealish and Doku together in some games.

With those two and Foden and Bernardo available as his main wide options, he has great quality and variety.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. He’s very grounded and humble.

Yes, it's a nice interview and he comes across as a bright, personable young man. No arrogance but there's a quiet confidence in there; although he is clearly still a little nervous being interviewed.

I liked the fact he side when talking about improvising that he is not showboating but looking to see how the defender reacts.

Look forward to watching him develop at City.
 
Incredible work yesterday, so incisive. He seems to have slotted in really nicely in the squad and I think he'll be great for us. Very talented player and Pep will make him better.

Are you still of the same opinion after these performances?

Obviously a lot of time to go to see the true result but the potential of Doku is very clear. Has the ability to create something out of nothing which is so rare with how good teams defend now.

Yes. I am still of the same opinion. Which have no relevance to his overall performance or how I rate him.

To say he doesn't have Mahrez's ball control is a fact.
 
Didn't realise last night that Doku's 4 assists in a PL game is a record for a City player. Even KDB hasn't done it so far. Wow.
 
What a player this boy is. He has a terrific attitude to match his considerable talent. Such a thrill when he receives the ball. We may just have signed a superstar.
 
I like him a lot and I know he has absolutely no control over this but the social media Doku fanboys are going to kill me. Every time he doesn’t start it’s 90% of the comments. He could come on for ten minutes and it’s all “should be motm.” It’s my fault for reading and being irritated by it, I know.
