CITY IN THE DOK

Injuries are no excuse for bad run in title race

- BY JACK FLINTHAM

JEREMY DOKU believes Manchester City’s injury crisis is no excuse for their winless run.

City were held to a third straight draw against Brighton on Wednesday, costing them the chance to put more pressure on league leaders Arsenal.

Belgium winger Doku said: “We're all disappointed. We had clear chances to win, ones that we just needed to score to be more comfortable.

“It's very frustrating because it’s not even the opponent, it’s just us.

“We missed some chances, then we put ourselves in trouble. It's just us, so it’s a bit frustrating because we know we could've been better in terms of scoring”
