Manchester City need to show more mental fortitude after losing their last two Premier League matches, the club’s winger Jeremy Doku suggested on Tuesday at the start of preparations for Belgium’s two World Cup qualifiers this week. After the first match, everyone felt good, but after that, things got more difficult. I think we’re letting our heads drop a bit too much when we concede a goal. Mentally, we need to be stronger,” Doku told reporters.
It could be that Manchester City did not have a decent break, having competed at the Club World Cup in the United States in June.
“Things aren’t going very well,” the Belgian international admitted when asked about City’s fortunes at a press conference ahead of Belgium’s game at Liechtenstein on Thursday.
