GW 8 Wildcard Discussion

Over yet another international break I discuss Game Week 8 Wildcard, and how it differs from Game Week 4 WC all within the context of Value Added per Million (VAPM). I turn back to the FPLOptimiseR package in R to examine algorithmically optimized teams. Is threemium in? I also discuss hindsight, and the drawbacks of VAPM, later I review my team and quickly talk through my thought processes.
