#FPL - Dreaming of that perfect no hit season
Reposted by Turtle and Bear Utd
Palace now have two games in GW16 midweek

If they decide to move ARS v CRY QF to GW17 weekend
- LEE-CRY will be postponed to later in the season (causing a BGW17)
- EVE-ARS would also move (causing a BGW17)
- There's a possibility (and some pressure) to put EVE-ARS in GW16 midweek (causing a DGW16)
The draw for the Carabao Cup quarter-finals 🏆

Here's how our very early @solioanalytics.com projections see Wirtz's #FPL output at Liverpool - & how it stacks up against last year's cohort 👇

Verdict: 🔻 Likely under-priced at £8.5m

Doesn’t have the ceiling of pen takers like Saka or Palmer, but could easily be a top 5 FPL mid

#DGW25 for #FULTOT is likely if Spurs finish Top 8 in Europa League (currently 6th) AND Spurs bt Liverpool to reach Carabao Final (currently 1-0 with second leg at Anfield). Likely earliest confirmation will come after DGW24 deadline.

Thinking About Football Models 📰

What I think about when I think about football.

I tried writing a longer article for those curious about modelling football matches. In a way, it is what I wish I could have read five years ago.

Happy New Year everyone 💜

I calculated the EVs for the Assistant Manager in each fixture.

For now, not factored in probability of being 5 places below so:

Pts = EV if they not 5+ places below
Pts++ = EV if they are 5+ places below

From my team strength model

Simulated Premier League Table 📊 (27 Nov)

Liverpool 4 points clear.

Man City are projected to finish third for the first time in as long as I can remember.

From model Team Ratings perspective, we are very close to a world where Arsenal become the best team in the league and still don't win it.

🗓️EPL non-pen xG rolling calendar - November '24

- LIV are good, but it looks more like ARS and MCI slowing down rather than their own improvement
- Enzo Maresca, I apologize, I was wrong
- TOT are good?
- mid-table teams are such a tasteless blend
- seems EPL is uninhabitable for promoted teams

I ended up on a pretty off-beat strategy this season. I haven't WC'd, I used my Free Hit in GW9 and I've taken a lot of big bets against the crowd.

Some analysis of how the fuck I got here here - I don't know where I'm right/wrong tbh

Buckle up bitches it's a 🧵
