A decidedly tepid Gameweek which saw the big guns misfire. Oliver Giroud at last made an impression, Santi Cazorla boosted his reputation, while two of the “template squad” were rejuvenated as Eden Hazard and Michu delivered. Our members can hoover up all the data from the weekend action and, as usual, we’ve picked up the numbers that have caught our eye so far…

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    JK, billy, mark any other regular around whose seen what research i did on bps? Kindly post a link here so that people stop complaining. Also to understand bps, i would start by reading the fpl scout page where bps for each week are explained. Also u can check out the ppi score for ur players in history. This will tell u that sometimes these players get one bp mre or less by 1ppi. Check in player history. U will see ppi score. Its stat based. Analyse it, use it, move on!

      Hello Lateriser.

      Is there any way of getting access to the raw data for blocks etc? Its just that I could then run a short program to work out coefficients for each factor etc. Hopefully recreating the hidden formula behind it all.

        Ict index that the members get is all. Thats my guess. Ppi scores can be correlated with the fpl scout article after a gameweek as well.

          There is a great deal of correlation between the ICT index and the PPI, but without the formula for ICT we cannot determine why the anomalies differ between the two.

            My dissertation is to determine a model of running vibrations on footbridge from data measured. It would be easy to copy the walking models, but whilst correlation is strong it would not be a good model.

      A lot is down to stat analysing. And I am not talking about the stats on here. Too often we get distracted by a players abilities, when the key details is how many points they generate. Suarez being the major example. Its also why I am a pro at Champions League fantasy as I rarely watch it.
