Manchester City winger Jeremy Doku says they showed the right character for victory over Brighton.
City won a tough game 2-1, surviving a late fight-back by the Seagulls.
Doku said: “I’m happy with the result. After some difficult results we had in the past weeks. It’s important mentally and I hope we can keep going like this.
“It was very important. Not only for the table but jut for us in our heads. It was a difficult game but we’re a good team, the best team for me.
“We have to prove it every time we’re on the pitch. Today we did it.
“It wasn’t a 5-0 game, but 2-1. Some games are like this, difficult. But we kept on going even with 10 against 11 at the end.
“We showed we’re there. Mentality also. Aggressive. I’m happy about that.”
