Jeremy Doku hits 100 games in a City shirt in our Premier League clash with Liverpool.
A Premier League title winner already, the 23-year-old has been a crucial part of Pep Guardiola’s plans ever since arriving in the summer of 2023.
With 16 goals and 23 assists in his 99 games to date, he’s developing every week under the guidance of the Catalan.
Here we’ll pick out some of the games he’s shone in so far…
In just his second game, Doku gave a real glimpse of his talent in this convincing win at West Ham.
The Belgian had right-back Vladimir Coufal retreating back to his own goal throughout the afternoon and made it pay with this beautiful curling effort from around 12 yards.
He then hit the ‘Griddy’ in celebration, capturing the internet’s attention as quickly as he had that of the travelling City faithful.
Doku became one of eight players tied for the record of most assists in a Premier League match in this one.
He even opened the scoring with a forced finish before providing four goals for his team-mates.
The first assists came courtesy of a jinking, weaving run in the inside right space before laying off to Bernardo Silva.
He then had a shot deflected off Manuel Akanji’s back that went down as an assist, before rolling the ball into Phil Foden for City’s fourth on the day.
The best was saved until last, cutting in off the left deep in his own half and sending a angled ball into space for Bernardo Silva to run onto.
All in all, a spectacular day for the Belgian.
An FA Cup final defeat may appear an unusual addition to a list such as this, but Doku’s cameo off the bench here truly gave the Blues hope after a difficult performance.
He was a livewire, with City finding him every time we had possession.

His goal, a low shot that crept in was the catalyst for a push in the closing stages that centred Doku.
It didn’t prove to be enough on the day, but it was an insight into the winger’s devastating impact.
City were exceptional against our cross-city rivals, with Doku at the very heart of it all.
He made the first goal through his own sheer determination, driving into the box and attempting a cross that was blocked.
As it bounced back to him, he used his last moment while balanced to chip a delightful ball onto the head of Phil Foden.
The second was about both his strength and the weight of his pass under pressure, sliding it in behind perfectly for Erling Haaland to race on to.
He could have had a third assist by pressing high and winning the ball back, before teeing up Haaland who rounded the goalkeeper and then somehow missed from just a few yards.
From Doku’s perspective, this was all about one very special moment.
With City already 1-0 up, the winger collected the ball on the edge of the box, worked his way through the crowd and rolled it under the advancing goalkeeper.
It was the kind of moment that truly gets fans out of their seats.
