How the team planner uses public data
The team planner reads public Fantasy Premier League data for the manager ID, the latest public picks, player form, expected points, expected minutes signals, xG/xA, defensive contribution, bonus/BPS trend, set-piece order, transfer activity, current prices, availability flags, team strength, and upcoming fixtures.
Early-season form, points-per-game, xG/xA, and bonus spikes are tempered toward position baselines until the public minutes sample is stronger.
A weekly tuning job now compares model estimates with real GW outcomes, so the weighting can keep learning as more public data becomes available.
During a live gameweek, official FPL totals, bonus points, and player records can update at different times. The planner marks this and treats live totals as a snapshot, not a final result.
Use the Why button in player tables or tap a player on the pitch to see the compact score breakdown behind a projection.
Team and manager lookup checks public FPL standings. Add both names plus an approximate Overall rank when a name is common.
