The verdict

Stach comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (40 vs 8), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.8) and a stronger underlying profile.

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

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