I checked the top FPL projections from the first 5 GWs.
4 of 25 projected top-five players made the actual top eight. 16%.
In 3 of 5 GWs, none of the projected top five reached the actual top eight.
Projected points look more like betting odds than predictions.
In short... 60 points with the new team, while my old team would have scored 70!
Still, I think the team looks good for the battles ahead.
Congrats to everyone who broke 100 points this GW. Judging by FPL Twitter, that’s roughly 99% of you. Meanwhile, I’m sitting here with 95 wondering where it all went wrong. 😅
Why TC Haaland vs Palace?
Planning matters, but so does context. 8 goals in 5 vs Palace, secure minutes, shaky opponent. Coventry looks better on paper, Haaland could score 3...but a week changes a lot. Sometimes the best chance is now.
