Yeah it doesn’t feel quite the same, with all the AI, algo and expert teams, on top of expected points and clean sheet odds etc etc. always feels like there is an optimal move you have to make or go against 90%+ EO players. The only variance really comes from unexpected doubles and blanks

Is it really more ethical if it has a built in ad blocker ?

Do a random non fpl podcast and just talk about movies, tv shows or other sports since you’ve started playing fpl. Alternatively just start the pod after 5 beers

Nobody actually understands value and just spouts on about it to justify buying risky assets🤫

Full credit to @fplberlin.bsky.social for asking for advice and then blatantly ignoring it.

I get your point but people are actively being bullied, mocked and abused for being gay.

I agree Gambling is bad but it’s also a perfectly fine hobby and a bit of fun for millions of people. I know it’s aim is to basically get people addicted but can’t say it’s as bad rn.

Is a 0.04 difference in xG per shot significant?

Larsen x Cunha had a shit start to the season but now have 13 goals from 6 xG, and are overperforming as evident in cunha returns

Easy to say now, after the template has been slowly formed and consolidated over the last few weeks.
Meanwhile, Saka is still owned by less than 50% of the content creator league. Jackson, Dalot, Timber and mitoma all <10%.

If your going to go by stupid xG stats over small periods:

Gw1-5: 10 goals from 5.7xG
Gw 6-12: 2 goals from 6.11xG

Total goals: 12
Total xG: 11.8

Perfectly balanced, the xG gods were always going to get their revenge so I knew he would miss those chances, therefore I sold !!

Isn’t that kinda like the complete opposite of what data analytics is at heart. Its almost impossible to accurately measure qualitative data in this context, if it was possible it would be done
