""I ask the wingers in the final third to go one vs. one or one vs. two and I have the feeling that Jeremy's decision-making in the final third improved, like, wow!" Guardiola said. "Comparing to the past, he made an assist to Erling and sees the channels. "He's an incredible threat against teams that are a low block and deep. Jeremy is really important.""
""Now he is reading good. When Jeremy goes there for the second goal, two or three opponents go there. "They don't allow him to go one vs one because he's unstoppable. There is no winger over 5-10 metres stronger than Jeremy -- he can go left or right. Now he is reading when the opponents go two or three who the other man is to be free to create a cross or an extra pass. He improved a lot.""
Manchester City beat Burnley 5-1 after two own goals from Maxime Estève and a Matheus Nunes volley, with Erling Haaland adding a late brace. Jérémy Doku was pivotal, creating pressure that led to an own goal and supplying the assist for Haaland's opener while troubling former teammate Kyle Walker. Doku has produced one goal and three assists in seven appearances this season. Decision-making in the final third has visibly improved, enabling him to beat defenders, read when opponents double up, and free teammates to deliver crosses or extra passes. City moved up the league table.
