This week on Above Average FPL, Adam and Baker unpack a brutal Gameweek 3 filled with blanks, benchings, and bonus-point heartbreak. From Salah’s continued struggles to Bruno’s last-minute redemption, we explore the tactical trends and FPL implications heading into the international break.

🧠 Key Talking Points:

• Spurs misery before the break: a tradition like no other


• Salah’s blank: poor form or systemic issue?


• Bruno’s 20-point swing and the jam vs skill debate


• Chelsea’s xG surge and Enzo’s budget appeal


• Palace’s away form and smash-and-grab tactics


• Why midfield options feel broken—and what to do about it


• DefCon breakdowns: Sarr, Anderson, Sinesi, and more


• Free Hit strategy for GW4 and wildcard timing
