        Wasn’t there meant to be a different card colour implemented that was like a timeout?

        What happened with that I wonder

          I dont think you can ever say its certain, and tbh im not so sure that Sunderland game is one to target. Look how much Arsenal struggled against them. Not saying theyre amazing but I dont think hes getting too much out the game even if he does play.

          I thinking moving to MGW might be the better option

          Cherki gives you nothing off the ball which isn't possible a man down

            Most #10s don’t.

            Fact is he took off his #10 and replaced him with a winger, so he’s switched things round for no need really.

        No, Cherki is actually the perfect type of player to have when a man down.

        Say City sneak a goal, he’s then the perfect player to keep the ball and slow the game down.

        Maresca has 100% missed a trick there. Assuming he actually made the decision…

      He doesn’t trust him it seems and more so when they are down to 10 men. Need more off the ball work and he probably thinks Cherki doesn’t offer it
