Disappointing performance Saturday
Cherki registered one shot (one on goal) and one corner in Saturday's 6-4 defeat versus England.
Analysis: Cherki made a limited impact other than his lone shot, partly because his side was dominated while he was on the pitch against England. The attacker, who was coming off an exciting campaign with Manchester City, ultimately saw little action at the international level, staying behind Ousmane Dembele, Michael Olise and Bradley Barcola in the contention for offensive midfield spots. Consequently, Cherki was unable to score or assist across 124 minutes of play. He should have many chances to get back on track and show his playmaking qualities as soon as the next club season starts in August.
Creates one chance off bench
Cherki had one tackle (one won) in Monday's 3-0 win against Iraq.
Analysis: Cherki checked in during the 68th minute as part of a double switch alongside Desire Doue, replacing Michael Olise and Ousmane Dembele after manager Didier Deschamps began rotating with the result already in hand. He entered with France comfortably ahead 3-0 and their place in the Round of 32 already secured following the Ballon d'Or winner's third goal of the night. Cherki created one chance and won one tackle, and France will now shift their focus to a Group I showdown against Norway on June 26, a match where he could earn a start to give Dembele a breather.
