“First match and first victory. We continue. “ Here is the message published last night by Rayan Cherki after the 2-0 victory from Manchester City against Wydad Casablanca during the FIFA club World Cup. Under his post on Instagram, the tricolor international has received many messages of encouragement from the supporters of the Skyblues, who know that it will be necessary to be patient with the player bought € 42.5 million (with bonuses) at Olympique Lyonnais. Because his first match in the sky blue jersey was not really exceptional. He must find his marks and automatisms with his teammates to be able to speak his best football.
It will logically take a little time. But some did not lose it and immediately attacked the 21 -year -old French footballer. On social networks, the footballer born in 2003 took very expensive in England. On X, a fan wrote: “Rayan Cherki against Wydad. Is it the guy you all compare to Florian Wirtz? »». Another left: “No tweets like” Cherki is more talented than Mbappé and better than Wirtz “today?” Others have disparaged Ligue 1 by writing: “Cherki when he does not play against teams like Dijon and Guingamp …” But the press was not tender either with Cherki, who immediately understood that we will not give him any gift on the other side of the Channel.
The English are ruthless with Cherki
Goal assigned him the note of 5 with the following comment: “Globally free and somewhat disappointing beginnings. He showed cunning and a good understanding with Savinho, and created a great opportunity for Foden, who was spoiled. A clumsy pass allowed Moufid to try his luck from afar. He was replaced at the time of play. ” For its part, the Manchester Evening News was a little less hard: “It took him a while to start, but he showed signs of building relationships with his new teammates and of course with Doku.” The Daily Mail was not really thrilled and mentioned Guardiola's feelings after this first outing on the Frenchy feet.
“Doku then missed his strike while he was in full opening, an opportunity due to the pressing of Rayan Cherki for his beginnings, which did not leave many clues about the rest of his adventure. Guardiola sometimes seemed exasperated by the Frenchman for his small actions that made them lose the ball, but City knew that it was the kind of talent they had taken in Lyon. ” Asked about his recruit, Pep Guardiola said: “” Rayan Cherki had good times. It is difficult to replace it with the quality it has. He has incredible dribbles close to the surface, a very high quality of passes and a vision. This is the first match, we are happy to have it with us. ” Not yet something to be alarmed for Rayan Cherki, who has the talent to put everyone in his Manchester pocket as in England.
