BBC Sport's FPL expert Gianni Buttice examines key dilemmas for Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of gameweek three. He advises using a Wildcard or Free Hit chip to bring in Erling Haaland (£15.5m) easily, as fitting him in via transfers is difficult. Haaland is also recommended as a strong Triple Captain option given Coventry's defensive frailties and his midweek rest before the Etihad clash.

For midfield, Rayan Cherki (£7.7m) is the week's most-bought player with two price rises, while Phil Foden (£7.0m) offers stronger underlying data. Josko Gvardiol (£5.6m) is highlighted as the best defensive pick. The article warns that Cherki and Foden may face minutes risks later due to Enzo Fernández's (£6.9m) arrival.

Christos Tzolis (£6.5m) remains a comfortable hold despite early substitution concerns. Regarding Bruno Fernandes (£12.0m), he remains a superior FPL asset to Cole Palmer (£9.6m) or Bukayo Saka (£9.5m), though more expensive; switching is only advised if captaincy is unlikely. New signings like Daniel Munoz (£5.4m), Bradley Barcola (£8.0m), and Jack Grealish (£6.5m) should be monitored but not rushed into, as they may only feature as cameos initially.
