Cherki was removed after 27 minutes against Bournemouth. That sharply reduced the time available for an attacking return. The manager's explanation is the next useful piece of evidence.

Official FPL status, match record and listed set-piece orderCherki was removed after 27 minutes against Bournemouth. That sharply reduced the time available for an attacking return. The manager's explanation is the next useful piece of evidence.
Cherki is currently listed first for corners, direct free-kicks. At £7.5m, that dead-ball route is a specific source of value, but it still needs confirmation from the next competitive kick.
Away at Crystal Palace is an FDR 3 fixture that puts the focus on goal, assist and clean-sheet routes. The model lands on 3.7 points; use that as a one-week baseline, not the whole transfer case.
