The other issue City have is that Doku is likely to only play one game a week. Anything more and they know there's a high injury risk. Would expect to see Foden used in wider positions more often from here.

The wider issue with the Semenyo injury is that he was the obvious Haaland stand in. None of our other wingers carry his goal threat. Either Haaland plays every game (bad idea) or we use a sub-standard false 9.

BREAKING: Antoine Semenyo is expected to be ruled out for "probably" eight weeks due to injury, says Enzo Maresca.

City feared Semenyo had suffered an ACL injury against Ipswich. Fortunately that's not the case but he will be out for the next 6-8 weeks. @9320pod @StevenMcinerney @ItsLB_City

It’s stuff like this that I mean when I say all this couldn’t have happened to a better fanbase. One’s dressed as a CARTOON ROBBER and one’s in an American prison jumpsuit and people are losing their minds because lads are having a laugh at the football.
Not my picture, but absolutely brilliant! 😂

7/7 for City in the league and while there is an element of 'we'll just score more than you', the football is entertaining and genuinely fun to watch. It's not been like that for a while. Don't think Maresca could have wished for a better start, apart from the 114 charges...

After a great start to the season, Guehi's form has dipped significantly in the last couple of games.

City were schooled in the first half, but the second has been dominated by us. Maresca's changes were fantastic - just a shame he got it so wrong with the starting XI. A fair result, honestly, would've been a draw or a narrow City win.

Honestly have to laugh at how abysmal Semenyo has been tonight. It's been painfully bad.

Doku in this half would've feasted.

Semenyo 0/10 tonight.

We could genuinely be winning this. We're destroying them.

Been a great second half, this. Scoreline isn't ideal but it's been entertaining and we could've scored at least 4!

Donnarumma isn't it. I'm not saying we'd have got anything from the game, but we've been awesome for 15 minutes and he's just single-handedly thrown that away. Too many errors too often.

Jose 'Definitely Not Past It' Mourinho's Real Madrid getting pasted by Roma? Surely not.

Internally, City have decided that Doku can only manage one game a week. Him coming off at half-time may mean he starts next PL game. A shame he couldn't do anything tonight.

However, there's no way he should be coming off before Semenyo. He's been dire.

We're hanging Khusanov out to dry at right back. He's not a full back at all. Strange decision to put him there just because of his speed. Nunes is twice the full-back and no slouch.

Levels to this game. We're getting rinsed.

We're seeing a dodgy piece of play from Donnarumma pretty much every game now. Becoming a real concern.

Also, Semenyo isn't a Champions League player. He fits the PL well because of his physicality and knack for goalscoring, but technically he's not at the level for the CL.
