The verdict

Ndiaye comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (30 vs 4), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and better current form.

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

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