11 | Jeremy Doku - 2023/24

[mancityscot]

Love the guy already. Looks tailormade for that left wing slot

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Never thought we would see a player like Sane again in a blue shirt, but we have just found one and a player who is only going to get better under Pep.

 

[Gabriel]

Can’t ever remember us having a winger who combined such speed with such physical power. He has a backside like a Belgian Blue, rather appropriately, and you can’t see him being knocked off the ball.

 

[Blue Steel]

They will play together on opposite wings.

Sense being spoken.

Why can’t some people just appreciate Doku without bringing Grealish into it? It’s really odd.

Doku was bought with the RW spot in mind with Mahrez having left and Foden moving to the middle. He’s only been playing so many minutes on the left because Grealish is injured.

Really looking forward to seeing both of them on each wing, what a great balance that will be.

 

[OB1]

Doku is going to retire a few full backs.

 

[jollylescott]

Under Pep’s tuition he’s going to be a frightening prospect for opposition defenders. He also put in one beautiful cross field ball at one stage.

The sky’s the limit for this young lad.

We are lucky to have both, don’t get me wrong, and this isn’t meant as a dig at Jack (though it might sound that way), but I just find it so so refreshing and exciting watching Doku for us. Going past someone is just so brilliant to watch.

 

[TrentGrisham]

With our injuries, I hope he's ready for a big role.

Some of them still can't let go their hatred for him, really fucking weird some of our fans are.

 

[kenbelly]

He’s a star in the making. Electric.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Very exciting player so far. Looking forward to seeing him develop.

This is why football is great. I love what I’ve seen from Doku but I also love what Grealish brings. Horses for courses innit but we are lucky to have such an embarrassment of riches.

Doku hasn’t done much different than Grealish did for us last season in the way he plays. Grealish has gone past defenders plenty of times. Doku does it in a different way, busy and quick with his feet. It is so tiresome seeing the comparisons between both players from our own fanbase, much of which I’ve seen on social media being completely distasteful. Personally I find Grealish exciting to watch. It will be great having him back on the left and Doku on the right.

 

[Eebo]

Incredible ability to go past defenders like they are not there, it's like a magic trick it happens so fast and even though you see it happen you can't say how it's done! His speed off the mark and balance and ability to go either way all seem to be involved but he just appears on the other side of the defender with the ball. So exciting to watch.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Love him already I can’t get over how strong he is,for a little fella

 

[jaiguruKun]

He seems to have a very good football brain to go with the skills and pace.

 

[Gordyola]

To think the money the rags spendt on their wingers

 

[ninjamonkey]

I'm so glad I can stop banging on about us needing a winger who can take his man on. Everything he gets on the ball you think something can happen and it often does. Very eager to see him get in tune with the players, seeing a little give and go and releasing him in behind the fullback is going to be lethal once we get that part of the game into our patterns.

I predict he will have a big enough impact this season to persuade pep to go out and get another pacy winger next summer and we prioritize that wing play over the more easily managed controlling wing play from the likes of grealish and bernardo that he currently favours.

 

[super_city_si]

We have a player. already settled really well but you can see, as good as he has been, there is lots of room for improvement. Hes going to be great for us

Grealish gives us more control and is much better defensively. Doku is a direct threat. We now have 2 dynamite options on the left for different tests.
