I think there is a misunderstanding or miscommunication over what an #FPL model is telling us when it makes a points 'prediction'.
Chiefly, the fact that it isn't really a "prediction" but a projection:
🧵
Chiefly, the fact that it isn't really a "prediction" but a projection:
🧵
In any given gameweek, a player will have a projected number of points. These are summed over a period of gameweeks for a longer term projection.
For example, from #GW14 to #GW16 these are the points projections for two players, A and B, from @fplreview's Free Model:
For example, from #GW14 to #GW16 these are the points projections for two players, A and B, from @fplreview's Free Model:
However, this does not necessarily mean that the model thinks Player A will score 6.6 pts in GW14 or 15.6 pts from GWs 14-16.
It means that the average return from 1,000s of simulated runs of GW14, and by extension the sum of GWs 14-16, is 6.6 and 15.6 respectively.

I have dearly missed putting articles out recently, so I am very much looking forward to sharing these long overdue thoughts. This week’s article is a combination of a scouting report and matchup analysis. 🧐
I have been working on some of these elements for a few weeks so some of the data may not be of current gameweeks, but I believe the concepts still apply.
Even when I am unable to publish an article, these ideas are always discussed weekly on @NetThatHaul.

#FPL Captaincy has been hard this year. I’m scoring 12.53 Captain points on average per gameweek this season. It's under my target but still decent. Here is my breakdown of Captaincy numbers for my 4 players from my squad that I’m interested in captaining #GW16
Shout out to @DhillonAjit @YogiFPL @BumblebeeFpl who have asked me about my opinion this gameweek.
Here are my percentages of likelihood for at least one return:
🏆Mané: 62.9
🥈Vardy: 59.7
🥉KDB: 55.8
4⃣Tammy: 41
The rest of the thread explains how these numbers were reached.

Let's go through a couple of interesting metrics.
1) One of the metrics I consider is actually whoscored's prediction of how the game will end in exact goals for both teams. I don't know how they come to their conclusion but they have been very accurate...

#GW1 “A strategy in place”
Kept an eye on preseason games & formulated what I thought was a solid strategy based on players form from last season (BIG mistake)
Decent start with 68 pts
