As Manchester City faced mounting criticism for their recent performances, winger Jeremy Doku remained resolute, emphasizing the importance of their internal focus.
Following a convincing 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest at the Etihad Stadium, Doku contributed both a goal and an assist, helping to narrow the gap with league leaders Liverpool to just seven points.
In the wake of scrutiny, the 22-year-old Belgian-born Ghanaian expressed indifference to external opinions, stating, “They can say whatever they want.”
He reinforced the team’s commitment to staying in their “bubble,” a mindset he believes is crucial as the season progresses.
“If they think it’s over, let them think it’s over,” Doku added, underscoring their determination to take each game as it comes.
The win against Nottingham Forest was particularly significant for Manchester City, who had struggled with four consecutive league losses.
Doku highlighted the squad’s resolve, stating, “We didn’t listen to the noise from the outside. We just kept working and grinding.”
