The best (legal) team of the first 9 Gameweeks...

                                I n my typically analytical nature, I was looking at FPL leader boards, GW top scoring teams etc. and decided on the idea of working out what was the best possible team you could've played between game-weeks 1 and 9 so far this season. One caveat to this is the fact that I have played it like a 9GW season, not a 38 GW one; for example, all chips have been used within those 9 weeks (so not a completely fair comparison). The team and chip usage is actually considerably different if I were to continue past GW9, so if this is of interest, let me know and I will, at some point, continue the team on.

 About me - FPL Newbie Who am I?      Firstly, welcome to my blog. I am an football loving Englishman, who has recently gained an interest in trying to succeed at FPL. Success for me this year is just completing the season with no unnecessary break - something I wouldn't consider myself to have managed before; hence the name Newbie. We all know the story, we start playing, try really hard for a couple of game weeks, before it all goes wrong and we then can't be bothered to try to make up for lost ground. For once, I intend to follow suit, and at the time of writing have made it to GW18, which is most likely a personal record. Given this new commitment, I stumbled across 'FPL Twitter'; this is a fun place to be until that differential you didn't get bags 16 points and everyone is posting about it except you. Shout out to my followers, it's the best side of Twitter I've experienced, and you can find me there @FPL_Newbie_. Why am I writing this blog?     There...
