At the time of writing, some of my players are yet to play in Matchday 2. For that reason, those same players have not had their Matchday 3 fixture updated. I decided to use the power captain boost rather than the Wildcard as my team looked pretty good.

Notes
- I made two transfers in Matchday 2. Those transfers included Denmark’s Skov Olsen and Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo out and Senegal’s Ismailla Sarr and England’s Bukayo Saka in. I am yet to see if those transfers worked as they have not played yet.
- My biggest concern with Matchday 3 is rotation, especially for the likes of my England assets. However, my wildcard is still an option, but I will try to avoid using it.
- My transfer targets are unclear but looking at the fixtures Netherlands, France, Denmark, Germany and Brazil all have great fixtures so it is likely my targets could be within those sides.
- In terms of captaincy, the standout options look to be Memphis Depay against Qatar, Kylian Mbappe against Tunisia, and Neymar or Richarlison against Cameroon.
