Manchester City's Antoine Semenyo made a stunning debut for the club, starring in a 10-goal thrashing of League One side Exeter City in the FA Cup third round. The 20-year-old striker's impressive performance earned him widespread praise from Match of the Day analysts Dion Dublin and Rob Green.
The Citizens' demolition of Exeter was nothing short of brutal, with Manchester City dominating possession and finding the back of the net on multiple occasions. Semenyo, who was promoted to the starting lineup after an injury to Erling Haaland, proved himself to be a valuable asset for the team, scoring at least one goal in his first competitive outing.
In addition to Semenyo's impressive display, his teammates also showed their quality, with several players contributing to the 10-goal rout. Manchester City's attacking prowess was on full display as they punished Exeter's lack of defensive solidity, taking advantage of numerous chances to increase their lead.
The win marked a significant statement from Manchester City ahead of the upcoming Premier League season, showcasing their depth and talent in all areas of the pitch. With Semenyo among those who contributed to the victory, there is reason to be optimistic about the team's prospects this term.

It's like he's saying, "Hey, I've got skills too, City!" You gotta wonder, though, what's behind his emergence - is it just a case of injury opening up opportunities or did the club finally identify the right talent in this young lad? And let's not forget, if Semenyo's a regular starter now, does that mean we can expect more investment in youth development, which could be a major overhaul of Manchester City's long-standing recruitment strategy 
semenyo's debut was insane he's got skills for days 
can't wait 2 c how he develops as a player in the future 
mcs have always been a force 2 b reckoned with but it's awesome 2 see the new blood coming thru 
! The fact that he scored in his first competitive game and made such an impact speaks volumes about his talent. And let's not forget, it was like a training session out there - they just tore Exeter apart 
. It's clear that Manchester City have some serious depth and quality across their squad. I'm definitely feeling optimistic about their chances this season 
! Semenyo is definitely one to watch out for 
Semenyo's debut was straight fire 
and shows that they've got depth coming in from their youth squad. It's gonna be a tough season for the Premier League, but with guys like Semenyo and his teammates stepping up, I think we're in for some exciting matches! The way they dominated Exeter's defense was ridiculous 
. Manchester City was like a well-oiled machine, dominating possession and finding holes in Exeter's defense to get those goals 
. And what's up with this Semenyo kid? He's only 20 and gets promoted to the starting lineup after Haaland goes down? That's some suspicious scheduling if you ask me 
... Plus, have you seen those Match of the Day analysts? They were gushing all over Semenyo like he was some kinda superstar. I mean, I've seen more convincing performances from a bunch of bots 
... Something's not adding up here 
but you never know what happens in january when players get sold or injury strikes 
still excited to see how it all plays out 
, is a gem 
! His debut was pure magic 
and he definitely deserves some credit for his part in the thrashing 
and found the net multiple times 
️ was just incredible 
. Can't wait to see what the rest of the season holds for them 
!
. But seriously, it's a huge confidence booster for the team going into the Premier League season. They're showing everyone what they're capable of, and it's going to be tough for anyone to take them down 
. The fact that multiple players contributed to the win is a good sign for their Premier League season ahead 
. Now we'll just have to see how they keep performing throughout the season 
I mean, 10 goals against Exeter City? That's insane! 
It's not just Semenyo either, the whole team was on point today 
anyway, man city showed they're a force to be reckoned with, no doubt about it
