11 | Jeremy Doku - 2023/24

We do need to factor in that we don't get enough players in the box as we should. Only Foden, Alvarez and Haaland do that, so crossing to two attackers around 6 or 7 defenders is harder.

Up until Doku's injury he too was looking he could contribute as much as Saka.

He has 7 goals and assists in 21 league games. 5 of those came against Bournemouth.

Still was a good platform up until the injury to build from.

Needs more time, much more , he is adapting

Yeah, but not 13 goals and 8 assists.

The injury hasn’t change how he’s played. We need to work on our creativity as a team and try and maximise our output.

It feels like we’re back at the point where Pep changed to the false 9 after the West Brom 1-1 draw in 2020.

Doku is still capable of that and the injury hasn't helped him really adapting to life at City.

Hopefully he is capable, so let's see it.

As of right now, he's not in Saka's league in terms of contributions in their respective teams scoring goals.

He's been back from injury a while now, it should be no excuse for shanking chance after chance into row Z.

We shall see. He has 17 league goals in his career so far.

21 years old, first season in the Prem & first season with Pep

Might be worth remembering what Gundogan said ;)

Gundogan on working with Guardiola

Speaking in an interview with ESPN, Gundogan explained: "Seven years before I joined Manchester City, I thought, 'I know football'. I was 25 or 26 years old.

"So I thought, 'I've seen a lot'. I won league titles, cup titles.

"But standing here, after seven years of Pep's school, I probably would say I didn't know anything about football before, you know.”

This after 5 years with Klopp & a year with Tuchel

The AFD jokes are getting out of hand!

One swallow…and all that!
