Manchester City winger Jeremy Doku has proven a handy replacement for Jack Grealish in recent matches after positive talks with Pep Guardiola
Jeremy Doku is thriving as Manchester City's new supersub after talks with Pep Guardiola to see how he could be more effective.
Doku has had an encouraging first season in English football but has found himself increasingly resigned to the bench after struggling to find his best form again after an injury kept him out over Christmas. His only three starts in the last nine games have come in the FA Cup against Newcastle and the league against Villa and Luton.
Guardiola explained at Wembley that he had held more talks with the player to get to the bottom of why the youngster wasn't able to perform as well as a substitute as he was as a starter. Thankfully, there have been more signs of progress in recent weeks."When he arrived, after West Ham, I was like 'Oh my God, unbelievable player' and until his injury he was at a top level. Always when he came from the bench the impact was not good. From the start was good, the bench not good.
