10 | Rayan Cherki - 2025/26

[adrianr]

I think more than a few people have forgotten that watching football is supposed to be fun. Feel like we've had a serious dearth of it since Balotelli left. You can be entertained in more ways than just ruthless efficiency.

To defend Noel, nobody has been anywhere near The Beatles.

Beatles the most overrated boy band of all time

Beatles the most overrated boy band of all time

Hardly a boy band. Their writing, musicality, understanding of harmonic and melodic structure etc is light years ahead of Gallagher

That's why there cited as a musical influence on nearly everything that came after, directly indirectly.

But let's not get off topic.

Post 1965, they were mavericks like Cherki.

 

[noseve]

he took Haaland off at 5 goals with loads of time to play matching Messi's 5 goals in one CL game.

That still annoys me, almost as much as taking our foot off the gas during the 6-3...

 

[Willtaylor]

Hes our star man and hes playing on the right
His name is rayan cherki and hes fuckin dynamite

Get this going blues ....

Inverted RW in a 4321 or 4231 with a wide RB, or if our RB wants to play deeper as we saw Nunes do with a wide winger, the 10 role is perfect.

I think Pep has realized that we have to build around Cherki and Doku, as they help Haaland the most as well.

Indeed. Incredibly versatile band who kept on innovating. Unlike Noel Gallagher who made two great albums but precious little else. I find his current Dad Rock rather sad. Puts tin helmet on.

He’s a creative machine. Might end up being more creative than KDB in a few years time.

[MCFC1993]

Moving like the best playmaker in the world.

At a time when there is little creativity in football he's a breath of fresh air.

 

[LaraQ]

France are so stacked he's not even an automatic pick for the first team.He was great against Columbia though.

 

[mrbelfry]

Whatever you want to say and what ever criticism you want to throw his way the one thing that's very clear to me is that Cherki is undoubtedly better at football than me

 

[Claytop]

Looked like he was trying to get as many flicks & back heels in as possible before he returns to us after the Intl break...

He's 21. Soon, he will be an automatic choice for any world XI, IMO.

Amen. The games gone boring. The more like him the better

I want us to sign as many flair players as possible. The reason why we dominated for so long is because we had players who could produce magic. I just love watching highly skilled technicians, the more of them you have the better. The prem seems to be going the opposite way to that now, I hope we stick to what’s done us best previously.

The CL shows us that if your technical players are good enough, no team based on physicality alone will get near you. We speak about the game changing, and teams are using physicality and excellent coaching to try to bridge the gap, but highly technical players, like Cherki, backed by some physicality to win the ball and cut out the counters before giving it to him, will always win the day, and we are on our way back, IMO.
