Here’s 3 FFGeek alternate FPL teams GW6 which I do for a bit of fun and another way of getting ideas for player selection. There’s a bookies team, an expected goals team and a template team. I’ll be playing them through the season to see how they do. There’s a wildcard for the bookies team
FPL teams GW6 – the bookies, expected goals and the template teams
The Bookies team
The team finished with a disappointing OR of 130k last season but an impressive one the previous season of 6k. It’s having an absolute nightmare start this season so it’s time for the wildcard
2 transfers are made every 2 weeks unless there’s an injury or a gametime risk. The 2 transfers will seek to improve the overall ATGS/CS odds for the 11 players forecast to play. The captain will be the player with the best ATGS odds.
Here’s the teams points
GW5 points: 38 (average 47) Total points 245, Gameweek rank 3,879k, Overall Rank: 2,523k, green arrow 416k, Team Value: £99.5m
Here’s the Wildcard team. Best ATGS odds within a structure although after picking AWB I put in Doherty for the pairing so a fudge there. No more than 1 player for each attacking team.
Here’s the lineup for GW6:
The expected goals team
The first year with the team last season and it finished a reasonably respectable 47k OR
Same theory transfer every 2 weeks except for injury, place lost or suspension. Transfers will be to replace lowest ranked with highest ranked subject to team structure. Captain will be poll leader. I get these stats free from the excellent site understat.
There won’t be enough data until at least GW6 to rely on and maybe longer so until then it will be relying on last seasons data which will make for a difficult start
Here’s the teams GW5 points:
GW5 points: 47 (average 47) Total points 304, Gameweek rank 2,426k, Overall Rank: 434k, red arrow 171k, Team Value: £100.6m
transfers were Mkhitaryan to Ramsey and Mendy to Delph
Here’s the lineup for GW6:
The template team
This is just to show the template team that will be set from my 10 top FPL managers articles.
Captain will be poll leader. Transfers every 2 weeks barring injury etc
Here’s the team points from GW5
GW5 points: 46 (average 47) Total points 316, Gameweek rank 2,579k, Overall Rank: 257k, red arrow 140k, Team Value: £101.2m
Just 1 transfer. Mane to Hazard
Here’s the lineup for GW6:
That’s it. I will try and do these weekly articles as they are one of my favourites to do it’s just at the end of the to do list and has been sacrificed last season.
