The 100-gameweek array

Silva scores 6+ in 38 of 100 gameweeks at this projection (38%)

Each square is a gameweek at the engine’s current projection for Silva. Acid squares are the weeks he scores six or more — usually a goal, or an assist or clean sheet with bonus. The grey ones are the blanks nobody puts in the highlight reel.

The shape, not just the number: a high projection with many grey squares is a different bet from the same projection concentrated in acid.
