Why would I be comparing him with somebody else?


What two chances? Don't recall any chance on a plate for Haaland from cherki. The only link up i can remember is when cherki flicked a ball towards Haaland slightly behind him at an impossible height for Haaland to do anything with. Cherki laid one on a plate for O'Reilly at the end, who 100% should have buried it, that's the only real chance he created though, should have laid one on a plate for Semenyo but delayed too long and overhit a simple ball. I said I could see Pep deciding to bench him next league game to keep him in check, I did not say he should be benched.

One was around the 80th minute a cross from the right , it was not played behind him just at hip height and Haaland hooked over the bar , i am not going through the highlights for you , you do it. , and then you just might realise how much he contributed to the game , 20% voted for him man of the match ,

It was behind him and at an impossible height for him to do anything. It was that good of a chance that it didn't even make the highlights... Your claim was he laid it on a plate for Haaland, twice, nothing about that was laid on a plate.

the O'Reilly chance at the end was him actually laying it on a plate, poking a ball somewhat near Haaland is not.

I don't need to go through highlights looking for this other chance on a plate because we both know it doesnt exist, you'd have mentioned it if it did. So your two chances on a plate in reality is one nothing attempt.

Simple fact you are wrong , Cherki had an excellent game , and 20% voted for him MofM , which makes you look a fool i havent got the time or inclination to deal with moaners like you or trail through highlights , and dont speak for me "we both know" just shows your arrogance and ingnorance , now that is the REALITY , jog on

Thought he was really poor today if you look beyond the flashy stuff. No end product, regularly chose the wrong option instead of a simpler one, constantly declined the opportunity to shoot in favour of something more flashy. Just generally trying too much.

Surprised Pep didnt hook him. Expect him to be rested weekend and if one of his replacements plays well, I can see him starting on the bench against Everton, needs grounding a bit.

I don't know why you have constantly changed the subject, you said cherki laid 2 on a plate for haaland, I asked you simply to remind me of those 2 times, you named one instance where he flicked it at waist height behind him and claimed that was laying it on a plate for him and decided to not give me this other instance, instead telling me to find it myself in a trump-like effort to deflect and disguise the obvious lie. You keep going on about 20% voted him motm, what relevance has that to whether or not cherki gave haaland two goals on a plate?
 
I'm just thinking about that Cherki goal against Arsenal - with all the bollocks from their fake hard fans about giving him a kicking after the kickups in the milk cup - and it is one of the great goals in recent premier league history. It really is. And you know it is because i said "it really is" after my initial statement.
 
Cherki has had a big impact on our results in the league:

2,35 points per game with Cherki in the starting XI vs 1,88 ppg without him.

Doku has had a similar impact (slightly better):

2,38 ppg with Doku in the starting XI vs 1,88 ppg without Doku.

Trump like ? Comical , your doing exactly the same you lying idiot , deflecting from your original post , where you stated Pep will drop Cherki for the next game after his performance against Burnley which is the relevance of 20% on here voting Cherki for MoftM , which makes you look a FOOL,looking forward to your reply , now nowts like you , always like the last word ...............
 
Thought he over egged the soufflé today. Not sure if it was playing a lower-league opponent or whether in the absence of others he considered himself the main man, but it was a disappointing performance by his standards.
 
He was okay, everyone is entitled to be okay now and again.
Getting similar comments as Nunes when he was never allowed to be okay.
He is settling well and will turn in more good than normal games.
 
I think he’s done okay, the only one who kept creating several clear cut chances during the team’s dire moments, but with no one there to finish before Haaland came on. Just one lost ball led to their lucky one hit wonder goal.
 
Flattered to deceive today , always looks good on the ball but no end product today , hard against a resolute Southampton defence , will be much the same against Everton , need him at his best for that one.
 
Lost the ball for their goal, then took what felt like 3 long range shots and went for a glory pass all leading to us losing the ball in the last 5 minutes.

That's just the player he is though, some games this style will get us that extra goal which secures the win, and others he may cost us a point. I suspect Pep won't be as amicable in his feedback to his risky style at 2-1 in a semi final though.

I like that attitude of searching for the killing goal, but it is stressful to watch at times.
