Analysis Thread
As we've reached the half way point of the season, inspired by old posts on @FFScout & @KaramTayser I've done a half season analysis
This analysis will look at two things:
Consistency v Explosiveness
Reliability v Risk

Season Analysis Thread
To do this, I've split it into 4 categories:
Premium (MID & FWD above ÂŁ9.5m)
Non-Premium (MID & FWD ÂŁ9.4m - ÂŁ6.2m)
Budget (MID & FWD below ÂŁ6.2m)
DefendersI've used the 10 highest scoring from each category
