The verdict

Cherki comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (19 vs 6), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and better current form.

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

Hold — Cherki is fine to keep, but there is no urgent case to bring him in.
