<h2><strong>Best FPL differentials -</strong><strong> Gameweek 17</strong></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Rayan Cherki</strong><strong> (£6.5m) - Manchester City - 5.7% owned</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: West Ham (H)</strong></p>
<p>Cherki's creativity has been a key feature for Manchester City this season, but his stunning opener against Brentford in midweek was a vivid reminder of the goal threat he also carries.</p>
<p>The France international can produce high quality shots with both feet, which is a difficult trait for opposition defenders to deal with - and his goal against the Bees was a good example of this.</p>
<p>Cherki has eight attacking returns in just six Premier League starts this season, and was substituted after 66 minutes in the cup on Wednesday, so he'll hopeful of being heavily involved once again as City host a leaky West Ham.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The 22-year-old appears to be improving with every passing game under Pep Guardiola, and the main issue so far for his FPL prospects has been the imminent threat of rotation.</p>
<p>With <strong>Omar Marmoush </strong>heading to AFCON and <strong>Jeremy Doku</strong> injured however, Guardiola has less alternatives than usual at his disposal - <strong>Oscar Bobb </strong>also picked up a knock in the cup clash.</p>
<p>Cherki therefore looks set for plenty of minutes in an advanced position for one of the league's most explosive attacks, and you would expect plenty of FPL managers to be tripled up on City assets heading into West Ham at home.</p>
