Regular feature to compare the picks of 1694 FPL veterans against a sample of about 10k teams from the top 100k.
Commentary Bruno Fernandes captained by 70% of veterans, 35% o top 100k
Any team in my sample of top 100k which hasn't made a transfer in last 7 weeks gets excluded.

Watch out for companion post: How did veterans perform and which players made a difference
The 1694 veterans made 3650 transfers this GW. 137 ( 8.1 %) played their wild card.
( 14.9 % have now played WC)
For the picks comparison, I have filtered out the low ownership (but high ratio > 1.5 ) players (threshold is 2%). If you don't see a player below then it will be because there is not enough ownership or the ratio is not big enough.
But you should be able to see all players in the googlesheets pointed to by the links
