The verdict

Cherif comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (14 vs 3), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.8) and better current form.

Sell — the projection, fixtures or minutes do not support keeping Isak.

Buy — Cherif is one of the better FWD options for the next 5 gameweeks.
