The verdict

King comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (19 vs 11), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.4) and better current form.

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

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