Gameweek 3: Tactical Tweaks and Top Picks for FPL Pro Leagues

In this blog, we've scoured the internet to see what the experts suggest for the upcoming FPL Gameweek 3 tips. Take the advice or ignore it completely; we could care less (bar you Stew, you need all the help you can get!).

1. Captain's Choice: Who's Wearing the Armband?

Let's not overcomplicate this—Haaland is still the king when it comes to captaincy, especially with City facing West Ham. But if you're feeling like throwing caution to the wind and want to go against the grain, why not slap that armband on Saka or Palmer? Both have decent fixtures this week, and you know what they say: fortune favours the brave!

2. Who's Hot and Who's Not?

Our boy Nicolas Jackson is getting a lot of love this week, and for good reason. Chelsea's got a great fixture run incoming, and Jackson's looking ready to pounce after his 10 point haul at Wolves. Sure, he might frustrate you with some misses and his lack of understanding of the offside rule, but the upside is huge.

And don't sleep on Ollie Watkins or Arsenal's defensive duo Gabriel and Saliba—they've got fixture runs sweeter than having the pundit state what you'd just said to your mates seconds later!

3. The Under-the-Radar Picks

If you're looking to catch the league rivals napping (we're coming for you Are You Shaw!), consider bringing in Emile Smith Rowe or Noni Madueke. These guys are flying under the radar, but they've got the potential to light up your scoreline. Trust us, nothing feels better than a differential pick paying off when you're in a knockout cup against your best mates!

4. To Wildcard or Not to Wildcard?

Look, we know that button is tempting, but don't go hitting that Wildcard just yet unless you've really got a mess on your hands. Patience is key, especially with big hitters like Bruno Fernandes and Eze. They might not have exploded yet, but the numbers suggest they're about to make some noise. Stick with them a little longer, and you might just be rewarded.

So there you have it, folks—your FPL Gameweek 3 tips and survival guide, brought to you by Bino, Stew, and Gregg. Whether you're gunning for the top or just trying to avoid another Shit Stick, remember: it's a marathon, not a sprint. Play smart, take a few risks, and above all, have fun. See you in the competitions!
