The verdict

Barry comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (23 vs 8), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and better current form.

Buy — Barry is one of the better FWD options for the next 5 gameweeks.

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