The verdict

Schade comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (23 vs 13), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and a stronger underlying profile.

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

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