Doku: Goal Against Fulham Was One of the Most Beautiful – More to Come as Form Returns

In the seventh round of the Premier League, where Manchester City defeated Fulham 3-2, Doku scored a stunning worldie. After the game, he stated that this was one of the most beautiful goals and admitted that his form at the beginning of the season wasn’t great, but promised there would be more contributions to come.

Doku spoke about that goal: “I saw a lot of space in front of me, I just tried to hit the ball well, then I looked up, and it was in. It felt very different! I like those goals after taking on players, like the one against Luton. It depends on what type of goal you prefer, but of course, this is one of the most beautiful!”

Doku played 45 games across all competitions last season (2282 minutes), scoring 7 goals and providing 11 assists. In the sixth round of this season, he scored his first league goal of the new season (he had previously scored in the League Cup match against Watford). Speaking about his form, Doku said: “I think I’ve performed better in recent games. At the start of the season, I wasn’t at my best level and form… I just hope to get better and better. Then I know that more (goals) will come!”

Doku also praised goalkeeper Ederson: “I think there should be no doubt about how excellent a goalkeeper Ederson is! He has saved us many times, not just in this game. He’s always there, helping the team, even during periods with the ball. He’s a very reliable goalkeeper!”

Doku also talked about the team’s start to the season: “Our start to the season? We’re still in contention. I don’t know if we’ll be first, second, or third, but we’re still in that position. The match against Fulham won’t decide whether we can become champions; we just need to look at each game one by one. There are a lot of points to fight for. We focus on the next game, and that’s Manchester City.”
