No Cherki? Interesting...

Immensely talented, and often a game changer, but inconsistent and not really a team player.

Cherki’s not inconsistent IMO and considering he doesn't start every game but when he's on the pitch, he's been instrumental in so much of the play.
This season alone he's scored 3 goals and 2 assists. That’s a goal involvement in 3 of the 5 wins. Came off the bench vs Bournemouth and set up both late goals in a 2-1 win. Scored twice at Palace in a 4-1. Scored the goal that put City back in front vs Sunderland in a 5-3. He also got a goal in the 5-0 cup win over Norwich.
He’s producing in the games that matter IMO.

He's also shown up when it mattered in big games against Arsenal in the league cup final and the must win match against them at the end of last season.
I also think his laid back style masks some of the work he does off the ball too - he's not a luxury, he's one of the best players in the world and a proven match winner that sees and does things others simply don't have the ability to do.
The team should be built around him and the fact he didn't cost over £100m should be seen as a positive and not a reason to leave him out of the team.

I'd take Cherky as the Rolls Royce of impact players, to come up almost every game around at 60'. As well as a luxury rotation for any of the 3 behind Haaland

Do that and he will (quite rightly) put in for a transfer.!!

Doku's also stayed at home which is good as he looked sharp on Sunday.
