Tonight he scored just one goal but he is so much more than goals and assists for us. He provides so much and is so important.”Man City now face Liverpool in a Premier League clash on Sunday and Doku is looking forward to the tie.He said: “[Winning] that [against Liverpool] would make it a perfect week before the international break.“We have to rest well, recover well and prepare well for them.”
