Cherki brace: City win at Palace
Rayan Cherki has scored twice for Manchester City at Selhurst Park, according to Sky Sports' live coverage of the Crystal Palace fixture. Early in the Premier League season, City's summer signing has two goals from an away day at one of the division's more hostile grounds.
Cherki delivers
The brief on Cherki coming into this season was straightforward enough: a technically gifted, quick-thinking forward who could give Pep Guardiola's side a different kind of threat in the final third. A brace at Selhurst Park, one of the Premier League's more hostile away days, is a reasonable opening statement.
Sky Sports' liveblog flagged the second goal with the kind of energy that suggests it was worth the excitement. Beyond that, the detail on minutes and scoreline is still coming through, so the full picture of how City have played will sharpen once the match concludes.
What it signals
City have won the title in each of the last two seasons, and the question every August is whether the squad has enough freshness to go again. Cherki, arriving with a reputation built across his years at Lyon, was supposed to be the answer to that. Early signs at Palace suggest the adaptation period may be shorter than some expected.
Guardiola has always demanded that new arrivals hit the ground running. A forward who scores twice on an away trip in August, at Selhurst Park, has done it.
