With Gameweek 3 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) nearing, our pundits are starting to finalise their teams ahead of Saturday’s deadline.

FPL General, who has three top 500 finishes to his name, is fully committed to going without Mohamed Salah (£14.5m) and Erling Haaland (£14.1m) this season. He is also committed to a Gameweek 3 Wildcard – which he shares here.

Make sure you sign up for the new season to get all the Member-only articles, tools and features to make 2025/26 your best FPL campaign yet!

General no Salah Haaland

Gameweek 2 Review

As for many FPL managers, it’s been a rough start to

As is the case for many FPL managers, it’s been a rough start to the season. Having just 87 points in total and a rank of 7.7m wasn’t exactly how it was supposed to play out! 

I always say it’s better to have these frustrating Gameweeks early doors rather than at the business end of the campaign when there’s less time to recover from them. We’ve got 36 Gameweeks to go; the first two were just the warm-up. The fightback begins this weekend and the consistent run of green arrows will be sweeter than ever.

My season so far was summed up by Cole Palmer (£10.5m) not featuring, captain Bukayo Saka (£10.0m) and defender Rayan Ait-Nouri (£6.1m) going off injured and Bruno Fernandes (£9.0m) sending a penalty to Mars. Nottingham Forest don’t seem to keep clean sheets any more, Ollie Watkins (£9.0m) is getting very little service and Florian Wirtz (£8.4m) might need a little time to adjust to life in the Premier League.  

With three injuries, quite a few underperforming picks and just one free transfer available, I pressed the Wildcard button after the Newcastle United v Liverpool game on Monday night…

Gameweek 3 Wildcard

Best of luck this weekend, folks. Enjoy the games!

    Hote take, but if Isak joins LFC, is it even worth owning LFC attackers due to UCL rotation?
    He could be rotated with Ekitike if they play Real Madrid etc before/after a mid-table PL team. Even if he starts, he might get 70 mins max.
    The further distribution of points and changing formations (4-4-2 / 4-2-3-1) throughout the season could cause rotation headaches.
    (I own Haaland, so no Salah for me).

      It will be a nightmare except for Salah.
      Even Gakpo would become a risk if Ekitike can play left and Isak up top.
      Or Ekitike in the 10 behind Isak to rest Wirtz.
      What a pain Isak is.

    Have some problems with my team.

    Wirtz: In a cagey affair against Arsenal, Szoboszlai physicality and presence will be needed. I would prefer if he started over Wirtz. Will Bradley be ready to fill in at RB?

    Palmer: The Fulham game seems too soon for him but I see him returning the week after.

    Georginio Rutter: "should be back soon" if he's not ready this gameweek I'll probably get a 1pter from Marc Guiu as he's settling in

    Ait Nouri: His timeline is 1-3 weeks out, if it's only a week or two keeping him after the free hit is not bad at all.

    Tempted to free hit even with 2FTs because:

    -I'll have more information to use both transfers
    -Can stack United, Forest and Chelsea assets for just this week
    -Can captain Haaland then return to Salah for the following few fixtures

      Yep I would free-hit, in my mind when you have 4 headaches in your time it gets to FH territory. Id like to think Palmer is rested this week and over IB and is raring to go after the break, also considering his only game played is a 0-0 vs Palace yet (will want to get off the mark in the PL). Ait Nouri benefits from IB also. Wirtz potentially one to shift eventually.

          You could just ride out this week, and put the injured trio of Palmer and Ran and Rutter. I think Wirtz is fine against Arsenal.
          3FT and FH remains in tact then and you get to see out the close of the transfer window and decide on moves in the two week international break.

          Wood is tempting this week, it will be annoying if he scores a brace, but it's only one game. We can't have them all.

      I would have doubts about his motivation if he stayed. He just might play badly, not train properly and affect team mentality. I believe him to be "eased" in and Ekitike getting start or two before Isak becomes a starter. No point to hope anything, there is nothing we can do and chaos is a ladder. Isak to Liv will prolly cause problems to Ekitike and Gakpo owners, so people have different hopes.

        Ekitike is really good. He's gonna play a lot no matter what. Gakpo seems like a chill guy, I feel he's less likely to kick up a fuss if he's in and out of the team.

    I know that many disagree, but I believe that this means that Wolves can now sell JSL. I personally don't expect JSL to start next game. At Newcastle he would get 10x higher salary. Newcastle have made a signing to a player similar to JSL and Wissa is contention, but if they get 150-160 from Isak, they have probably money to buy even both JSL and Wissa(?)

          Here I agree. But Newcastle are akao in Europe and having only on PL level unproven Woltemade and Wissa isn't enough imo. Some earlier reports said Woltemade to be Wilson replacement. That leaves room for a Isak replacement imo. There have been some issues in that team, I believe. Wolves owners have been said to be greedy. Very difficult to really know what's been going on and what rumours are just a trick to get more money.

        Woltemade for 65 millions. JSL is about same price. Wissa is valued at € 32 million. That's about 95 million pounds for them. If they get 155 millions from Isak, they would have 60 millions for JSL. Wilson is worth 8 millions. Supposing Woltemade comes for Wilson, JSL for Isak and then Wissa to add up quality in attack, the math makes sense imo.

            Isak needs his minutes to be managed with that groin niggle. He can't play all OL PL and CL games without getting injured. What has been promised to Ekitike I don't know. Champions league football in Liverpool should be tempting. JSL has been promised 10x(!!!) higher salary and he certainly wants to leave. CL football and chance to compete about starting place sounds better (to me) than being in a team that is in relegation battle.

                  If he doesnt, they will get relegated I think.

                  Surely selling JSL for 30-40m profit isn't worth the relegation risk? I would be saying to him 'mate, score us a ton of goals and help us avoid relegation and we will let you pick your destination next summer, you will leave a hero.'

    Thoughts on this FH team?

    Sels
    Tarkowski Milenkovic DeLigt
    Bruno Cunha Marmoush MGW
    Haaland (C) Watkins Richarlison

    Marmoush is an interesting one. But saw somewhere that he will start upfront with Haaland in a front 2. Also expect City to bounce back.
