And the same data, but presented as 'rest of season' goals per game rates
(How many more PL goals a player was projected to score each week, divided by the number of PL games they had left to play)
💹 Week-by-week change in projected #EPL goals
A look at how players' season-long goals projections have changed on spread betting markets each week, from pre-season through to current GW
(Missing values indicate players were injured or no market was available, etc)
In a first, I wrote a column that led a stranger to accuse me of being on the payroll of the Saudi government. (They were right; I am.) It‘s about Mo Salah, money, memories, and trying to win: https://t.co/Mspib3Tlfs
💹 Updated PL team projected points
Spread market inferred pts projections for each team after 1st round of fixtures, versus pre-GW1.
NEW + BHA projections were given a boost, while AVL, TOT + SHU were notably downgraded.
Will update these weekly to track market trends.

I wrote about the transfer market:
-Manchester United: being (sort of) normal?
-Milan: playing Moneyball?
-Liverpool: questioning the validity of the concept of a "defensive midfielder"?
-Strikers: ???????

#FPL Time to try another viz 🤭
Based on available models, here is top players by projected points, grouped by position and price point.
This season I am adding 2 new sources to the mix (Drafthound and FPLTeam). Some popular ones (Review, Mikkel) are yet to be released.
#FPL I will share optimal teams as prediction data comes back online from various sources.
The first data is from Drafthound based on bookie odds. Here is the 10-GW fixed bench raw optimal team.
(No transfer, no decay, fixed bench)
I reached out to FPL players who achieved an overall rank within the the top 1000 last season and asked them to summarise their best FPL advice into two sentences or less.
Here's what they said - A thread 🧵
💹Some updated spread projections + new players added.
Isak, Foden, Alvarez, Marty, Mbeumo, Eze + Luton fwds. @elevenify won't like the Awoniyi numbers.
Still waiting on a few players: Wilson, LIV + BHA attackers. And the big one: Dominic Calvert-Lewin 😎
More to follow!
