Why I’m lining up for FPL Gameweek 3 without any Chelsea players

A Fantasy Premier League veteran of 11 years, Darren Wiles has an incredible track record with three top 1k finishes in the last four seasons.

With so many favourable match-ups in Gameweek 3, I am feeling confident about the next round of Fantasy Premier League.

It has been a positive start thus far, anyway, with 80 and 90-point hauls in the first two Gameweeks taking me to a total of 170 and an overall rank of 29k.

The goals have been flying in so far and I have been lucky enough to capitalise on the early glut of double-digit returns. But all of that is in the past, and it’s what happens this weekend that matters now.

Here is what my team looks like for Gameweek 3 and the reasons behind some key decisions.

      Zaha’s fixtures are great. Half chance that he might be on pens too if Milojevic is not a starter.

    Thoughts on this active WC... Where do I find 0.5 from? (currently over budget)

        Yes I do like that, Taylor would be best of any of the 4.6/4.5s IMO.
        I may be overestimating the Chelsea def.

      I think it’s wise to have a slightly better bench than this if on WC.

        Ings to Dominic and either get a 4.5 for the bench or just go Podence to Foden.

      They are all excellent picks. Hard to split them. I’d say Zaha has the best fixtures. Foden might be an amazing pick given the current circumstances. Barnes has great stats from the first games. And I’m a bit in love with Mr Rodriguez (Everton fan).

    Question #1:
    A) Guaita & Forster
    B) Martinez & Steer

    If Forster wins his place back (fair sized maybe) rotation is surprisingly decent.

    Question #2:
    1) Guaita / TAA / Jimenez
    2) Martinez / Robertson / Werner
    3) Other

    Surprised no one is going for Mahrez

    He sores just 29 points less than Sterling last season by playing 717 fewer minutes.

    He’s nailed now as well.

      Risk and reward bud.
      I transfer early; against all advice.
      In the last 2 years it has gone wrong and in that time it has probably added up in 10 mil price gains.
