The verdict

Bogle comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (23 vs 8), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.4) and better current form.

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

Buy — Bogle is one of the better DEF options for the next 5 gameweeks.
