Cherki joined the Blues this past summer and has been a revelation thanks to both his aptitude and attitude on the pitch.
The French flair player created the first two of the three goals this evening at Stamford Bridge taking his stats to ten assists so far in his maiden term in Manchester.
Guardiola has been thrilled by his impact and expects him to get even better in the weeks, months and years ahead.
“The numbers are incredible and the quality in the first season in the Premier League, he is something unique,” said the boss in his post-match press conference.
GUÉHI: ‘EVERYONE DID THEIR JOB AGAINST CHELSEA’
“In the first half, he played close to me. Play close to Haaland and the wingers and the attacking midfielders and use the talent that Mum and Dad gave to you.
“When he starts to do that, he will become an extraordinary player with his mindset and mentality.
“He has to learn to play for 95 minutes doing what we have to do. But his work ethic is unbelievable knowing he doesn’t have the speed and pressing that Antoine Semenyo has that is amazing.
“I’ve been with Sergio Aguero and Sergio Aguero was not the incredible high press player but he tried his best and all I ask is that…do your best and you can do it because he has another quality.
“Every player has his own ability. Rayan has something special, the second goal I said choose the pass right and he passed to Marc Guéhi that I could not even see from outside.
“He is a top talent and again what I said, if Manchester City decide to bring that player in, it is because Manchester City is working really well.”
