Today Alexander-Arnold had 10 shot-creating actions, which is the joint-third most from a defender in the PL in one match since the start of 17/18, behind Alexander-Arnold (12) & Florent Hadergjonaj (11) (he's tied with Alexander-Arnold, Alexander-Arnold, and Alexander-Arnold)

159 (-4) • 1.1k OR Well, that went well! ~65 pt gain on the top 10k, overtaken 90% of all the players who were ahead of me at the start of last GW. It's an outcome better than I could have dreamed of and it's completely changed what I'm playing for this season. Best GW ever.

Sure! Right now in FPL, you can purchase about 0.3-0.35 points each GW for every £1M you spend. This means that avoiding a £0.1M drop before GW2 should yield an average of comfortably more than 1 point across the rest of the season.

Given this start (and the far worse run last season) there's not been much joy in FPL these last 6 months. On the other hand I recently graduated with a degree in maths, started my first job in the data world, and just made friends with a cat (see pic) so all is not bad ☺️

Currently you can expect to buy ~0.42 pts for £1.0M (EV numbers from @fplreview 's prelim. model). This means budget is already a more important factor than at any time in 21/22; selling an asset before a price drop instead of after may be worth >1.5 pts in EV across the season.

In a game with millions of players, which has a strong skill component alongside a significant luck component, it would be *extremely surprising* if the most significant outlier wasn't benefitting from both extreme skill and extreme luck outcomes.

The answer here is that Haaland appears in the optimal solution* up to only £15m! Although at £15.5 he misses out by a negligible amount, so I'll count that as correct too. *With this (very generic) set of parameters

Throwback to a fun experiment, run at the peak of Salah's FPL cruciality. Now that FPL has a new king… at what price do you think Haaland was dropping out of optimal solutions 𝗽𝗿𝗲-𝗚𝗪𝟭 this season ? ( @fplreview projections, 12 GW horizon, 0.85 decay, 1.5 FT value)

For anyone who picked '45%' in this poll, I think this is a plot you should see: across a 38 GW season, these are the distributions of clean sheets you would expect from each strategy. Across a season, spreading your risk is objectively not worth this kind of value sacrifice.

14/14 A time limit seems like an effective compromise and is therefore highly recommended, as is limiting the use of auxiliary variables and adding common-sense constraints. If you read this far, you're a nerd 🤓

A good performance from James Rodríguez today seems to have gone a bit under the radar, a few close offsides prevented him from a haul. He's keeping to nearly 0.6 NPxGI/90, which outdoes KDB and Bruno (higher NPxG than either as well). Continues to be a pretty easy hold for me.

A small and utterly irrelevant detail in #FPL that I don't anyone has ever noticed: if you sub on a midfielder for a defender, the midfielder will go to the LHS of the row. If you sub him on for a forward, he will go to the RHS of the row. Fascinating stuff.

A late-night WC7 draft, which will probably be activated if Ronaldo rest news is leaked. Son is a nice piggy bank allowing to wait for more data on City mid xMins and to eventually facilitate Trent's return (for Arsenal defence, probably). Think Ramsdale's upside is worth 0.5.

My thoughts on this (very thought-provoking!) discussion are that if we define our objective more specifically then the interaction between EV, risk, and our objective should be measurable. Seems like a lot of top FPL players' aims is simply to maximize top 10k probability. 1/6

You think your ID is cool? All I'll say is it's one of the first 7 powers of 3 written in base 5, and it ain't 7th 😉 You want more? It's the integer part of a volume of a regular tetrahedron with integer edge length 😎 And... it's the middle member of a sexy prime triple 😳

Well, here's mine moving into the last deadline. I'm really happy in general with play this season, although my decisions in the last 10 GWs lead to bad underlying (and worse actual outcome) realisations. I won't succeed in beating last year's numbers, but much better variance!

I used to think that my FPL team was a tragedy, but now I realize, it’s a comedy.

And thus the sun sets on the Maupay era of my team, one of my worst fantasy assets of all time. In my team he accumulated a slightly disappointing 3 xG and half an xA across the span of 10 weeks, somehow without obtaining a single attacking return...

@FPL_Chase @fplreview @FPLRobbed @MikkelTokvam 🤣🤣 Ridiculous isn't it! I don't think it's possible to break the ceiling of manager skill, but he's a compelling counterexample. If he finishes in the top 1k again next season, I'll legally change my name to Fabio and this @FF_Trout will become a Fabio Borges stan account.

Whenever Jesse Lingard scores, I sit back and smile, finding great comfort and joy in the knowledge that it probably shouldn't have happened. I feel at peace.

The success of FPL analytics over the last few years has been unbelievable to witness 😀 Bullet Wisdom is a discord analytics league that contains 261 managers - it was more competitive than 14 out of 20 club supporters leagues !!!!!

I'm thrilled to congratulate Jonas ( @ASC_FPL ) on his historic Fantasy Premier League win. Jonas, your victory as the first champion from the analytics community marks a significant milestone in our shared passion for data-driven success in sports. You've made us all proud!

@sertalpbilal @FPLFutbolmetrix Call me Grass FC but I think that EV over a season, and especially over less than a season, is probably given a little too much precedence on this app (maybe in the same way xG is!) And I wouldn't be so worried by this season review!

Okay... Castagne was added to the game on the 4th September, Havertz (who fell tonight) on the 6th. My only guess is that they lock the prices of new signings for ~15 days after addition, which would mean Rodríguez is eligible for a rise tomorrow.

FINALLY had a chance to play around with this over the last few hours, and it is just breathtakingly good. I couldn't really have imagined a couple of seasons back that an FPL tool could be as useful or visually stunning as the Review Planner now is! It's such a treat.

20 points • 4k OR Just the 62 point swing on the decision not to play FH. One of my worst GWs ever, the rank quadruples.

𝖂𝖆𝖞𝖓𝖊 𝕿𝖗𝖔𝖚𝖙𝖑𝖊𝖉𝖌𝖊 GW30 2 FTs, 0.7 ITB Out: Digne In: Doherty Honestly, no clue. Only gave myself an hour for one of the hardest decisions. Ran out of tine. Decided FH37/36>FH30 with no confidence, made a transfer with less confidence, and forgot about captaincy.
