With FPL Gameweek 3 just a day away, it’s time to see how one of our top managers is approaching the next round.

This time, we hear from Hall of Famer Dan Wright, who talks us through his squad, planned transfers and the key decisions ahead of the Gameweek 3 deadline.

Despite only starting playing FPL in 2012/13, Dan has 10 finishes inside the top 50k, of which five were inside the top 10k.

Gameweek 2 went very well, as captain Bruno Fernandes (£12.0m) helped propel me to a score of 130 points. Of those, 18 came from my Bench Boost, which is roughly what I hoped the chip would deliver.

    Bench Tzolis here? Feels risky but the wisest move.

    A) Tzolis
    B) Sangare
    C) DCL

      You’re probably right to bench Tzolis. Unless you’re starting a Chelsea attacker…

      Martinelli to Al-Hilal, if that helps?

    What’s the chance Mbeumo survive next price drop?
    Have players been going down before they reach 100?

      No they haven’t been.

      Think FPL starts to warn when a player gets close because transfers can pick up in speed as a deadline approaches.

      He’ll probably be fine but you can monitor over the next hour

      I like Egan/Thomas and Foden, I think his mins are probably better than Cherki’s long term.

      Failing that I’d go D

      Complete it yourself friend. Why rob yourself of the fun part of the game, making predictions and getting them right 🙂

      Fwiw off all the options you mentioned MGW and De Cuyper were both locks on my own wildcard. I started with both and never considered dropping them and n WC.

    N) Schade and Suzuki

        But I don’t like it. How about Gakpo over Szobo for a player with a decent chance of an attacking return?

          Schade over both imo. Gakpo will probably see a lot of rotation. Consider Elanga too or Wirtz if affordable.

      Mbeumo
      -97.5% -98.6%

      Shouldn't make -100% so if that's right, no.

            Don’t think it is a mess but a chip looks likely this week or next imo to sort the defence out / get Chelsea in

        Hi Magic man. Champ here. How have you been? Have you been playing fpl still all these years? I stopped for years just been playing draft games. Having a crack at fpl again this season. Remains to be seen if I stick it out or get annoyed with it and scrap it. Btw wonder if you remember we actually first interacted on some other site before we found FFS. must be 20 odd years ago. Do you remember what site that was?

    Ooh barcola 8m is a good price. He's a baller. Think he'll be in lots of teams soon. I'm on wildcard with Cherki and Foden both of whom I expect will see lots of rotation over the longer time. I'll be eyeing up barcola in for one of them soon I reckon.

        Kind of want to be aggressive and target the Man city triple attack and Brentford triple defence on FH3.

        Thoughts appreciated. WC4 is not a lock mind
