The verdict

Rogers comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (22 vs 12), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and better current form.

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

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