ANDONI Iraola shared how Cherries “suffered” when dealing with Manchester City’s Jeremy Doku after the Belgian ran the show in a 6-1 rout at the Etihad.

City’s summer signing grabbed the opener before setting up City’s next four goals, Nathan Ake’s late strike the only score from the hosts not involving Doku.

Frequently the winger tormented the Cherries defence, popping up on both flanks to cause havoc in behind.

Having cost City £55.5million to prise Doku away from Stade Rennes towards the end of the window, the 21-year-old has scored twice and provided five assists in eight Premier League appearances.

Discussing Doku’s impact, Iraola told the Daily Echo: “We suffered with him in one-against-one situations, because he has both options, go inside and finish, go outside and cutback.

“I think he was the one making the difference, I would say, in most of the good chances.”

Throughout the contest Doku targeted different members of the Cherries backline, being allowed freedom to probe the defence from different angles.

His goal came from a one-two on the edge of the area, whilst his first assist saw him switch from his left-hand flank to drive down the right and tee up Bernardo Silva.

Lloyd Kelly, who captained the side, believed the winger put Cherries "under pressure" countless times.

He explained to the Daily Echo: "I think ever since he came to the Premier League, he’s been on good form, and I think it's just something that showed today, for sure.

"It’s always going to be hard coming up against these top quality winger, who put you under pressure, over and over again.

Kelly and co. return to action next Saturday, when they welcome Eddie Howe's Newcastle United to Vitality Stadium.

The game will be televised live on Sky Sports, and as such, has been moved to a 5.30pm kick-off.
