GW5 Dream Teams Review

Alright, gloat time.  After coming last of the dream teams in GW4 my Select XI came out top in GW5.  Not a competition, honest ;)

Whilst I bask in my temporary glory allow me to remind you of the point.  I am picking the team based solely on the player’s underlying statistical data, mainly shots on target and key passes, and the strength of the fixture (which is again based on the same underlying data). 

I’m not picking the team based on actual FPL points scored, or goals scored, or any of the  surrounding hype.  Just that the players picked by this method are so similar as the expert picks tells you one thing, that they can outscore them is even better.  Let’s see where this goes.
