Jeremy Doku sends a 17-word message to Man City fans after the Liverpool defeat…

Jeremy Doku took to Instagram to reassure Manchester City supporters following their 2-0 loss to Liverpool. The Belgian winger, who returned from injury in the second half, expressed his commitment to the team’s efforts to improve, saying, “Back on the pitch and fighting with the team. We won’t stop working to make things better.”

Despite Doku’s best efforts, City were undone by defensive mistakes, with Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah scoring for Liverpool. The match saw Guardiola start with Matheus Nunes and Rico Lewis in wide positions, but neither player could get the better of Liverpool’s full-backs, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson.

However, despite the individual efforts, the team struggled overall. City found it hard to break down Liverpool’s defense and create meaningful chances. Notably, many fans were puzzled by Kevin De Bruyne’s limited role, as he only played for 15 minutes.

City fans are now looking to Doku to step up and contribute more consistently, as the club continues to rely heavily on Erling Haaland for goals. The pressure is mounting on Doku and the other attackers—Jack Grealish, Phil Foden, and Savinho—who have yet to score in the Premier League this season.

With his second season at the Etihad underway, Doku’s role in City’s attacking setup is critical. His recovery from injury is timely, but now it’s up to him to find his rhythm and help turn City’s fortunes around.
