The verdict

Gakpo comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (22 vs 3), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.8) and better current form.

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

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