The verdict

Gakpo comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (40 vs 11), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.6) and a stronger underlying profile.

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

Buy — Gakpo is one of the better MID options for the next 5 gameweeks.
