Fantasy Football Scout’s very own Mark Sutherns has been discussing his final Fantasy Premier League (FPL) team over on our YouTube channel – subject to any last-minute tinkering of course.

This is an exclusive for Premium Members – and there’ll be plenty more to come in 2021/22.

Mark will be filming one video just for subscribers every week throughout the upcoming campaign, so sign up via this link in order to see them.

FPL pre-season: Trossard hits hat-trick from wing-back role 1

In his latest video, the FPL BlackBox co-host discusses Bruno Fernandes (£12.0m), Kostas Tsimikas (£4.0m) and a couple of intriguing mid-price midfielders.

Mark explains his 3-5-2 set-up, premium midfielder choices and the omission of Danny Ings (£8.0m), plus lots more.

One thing to note, since the team reveal was recorded, Mark has switched Ben White (£4.5m) to Luke Ayling (£4.5m), something he touched on in the video.

    Bit boring, but any thoughts?

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Tsimikas Digne
    Salah Bruno Barnes
    Antonio Ings Toney

    Steele Raphinha White Brownhill

      Basically like most other teams. Go for it

      How much ITB?

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        0
        Tempted to switch Barnes + Raph for Greenwood + Benrahma

  2. MASTER ROSHI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Which is better?
    A) Schmicael Veltman Coufal
    B) Sanchez Amartey Digne

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Prefer 'B' myself, personally.

    2. Bedok
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      A over a season. Short term B.

  3. FPL ElasticO
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Which one is the best option?

    A. Greenwood
    B. Barnes

    1. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      B longterm

  4. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Would you still avoid Digne?

    1. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Atm yes

    2. JelliedSpark968
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I wouldn't avoid him, but he wouldn't be chosen over Shaw, Coufal, Cresswell

    3. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      in my team

    4. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      fixtures are too good, I've got him back in

    5. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Don't think he will be in my team long term but like the Ings-less Soton fixture and DCL being back

    6. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      No, pick defenders on fixtures. Clean sheets are your bread and butter so he's in my team over Shaw

  5. JelliedSpark968
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    I actually quite like the idea of getting a Mane/Salah double up, but it means I'd be getting rid of Bruno. Has anyone done similarly?

    1. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      For 1 of my teams yes. But it won't be for long until kane situation sorted

      1. Pep bites Kun
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        How many teams do you have?

    2. Goodfeathers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I like the idea but i'm way to much of a coward to do it myself 🙂

    3. TomSaints
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      That’s what I’m doing atm.

      Depending on arsenal team news, I have a bench boost team ready to go though.

  6. Gabbiadini
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Ings & Benrahma
    or
    Buendia & Antonio

    thanks.

    2. thepeen555

      Looks OK. GL with gundo

      1. JollyGoodYellows
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Top scorer for City last season and played advanced in the Community Shield.

    3. Steirish
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Same to as me except Brownhill for Gilmour

      1. Steirish
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        team*

    4. Bedok
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      It's fine. We will likely all be scrambling by next GW.

  10. Goodfeathers
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Who's the best 4.5 FWD to own? I know Obafemi is most likely to get minutes, but also surely the most likely to lose value if people start getting rid. Is it therefore better to go for lowest ownership if starting the season with 2 up top?

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Has he the highest ownership, yeah?

      1. Goodfeathers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Obafemi does yeah

    2. Juza
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Scarlett

      1. The Mighty Hippo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        You'd have to captain him.

    3. JelliedSpark968
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I'd prob avoid Obafemi for reasons you stated. Just make sure you won't be relying on the player you choose, have an otherwise strong bench

      1. BoomXhakaLaca1
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Is Obafemi not on his way to Blackburn?

      2. Goodfeathers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Thanks, yeah the rest of the bench is good. Only ever willing to have one non starter on the bench.

    4. Clintymints
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I just got Scarlett incase Kane leaves, he might get some mins

      Wishful thinking, but he's low owned, Nuno played 18 year old Silva last season, and Obafemi transfer news in overdrive, and he'd down the pecking order too.

      Pericia or Scarlett for me

  11. Clueless_91
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Sanchez
    TAA - Tsimikas - Shaw
    Bruno - Salah - Barnes - Greenwood - Mbeumo
    Antonio - Ings

    Steele - White - Coufal - Perica

    Thoughts?

  12. timawflowers
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    planning for gw2 in advance, whos a better option
    a - gundo
    b - grealish

    1. Steirish
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      A

  13. SirBruno
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Gundo or grealish?

    1. Steirish
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Gundo

    2. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Gundo atm see how much grealish plays. But he will likely be the one getting subbed off when starting after 60mins

  14. F4L
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Quick question for the pros; I put Balcombe in as my 4.0mil GK a while ago, and since he's been loaned out and left the league. He can't drop in price, can he? That's all I want from my 4mil GK, to stay 4mil!

    1. BoomXhakaLaca1
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      He won't drop unless loads have him haha I wouldn't worry about price drops anyway

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        cheers, owned by 0.0% apparently. You could say my best differential lol

  15. The Mighty Hippo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Over 6 million teams registered now. How does that compare to gw1 in previous seasons?

    1. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Low

      1. kennethrhcp
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        really?

    2. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Imo people must be avoiding it cause they can't get a team to look ok enough with the prices. Really not sure.

    3. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      better - was 5.7M before gw1 last year

      1. kennethrhcp
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        ya id say its high tbh. even with no data to back me up

  16. TheSpecial_One
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Should I go with:
    A) Maddison + Havertz
    B) Mount Graelish?

  17. OptimusBlack
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Pick two from those strikers
    A- Antonio
    B- Bamford
    C- Wilson
    D- DCL

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Bamford, Ings, Toney

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Probably Bamford and Wilson, unless you only want Antonio short-term, as EL kicks in soon.

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        I really want DCL & Bamford

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 day ago

          I'd go for it then. Bamford is a good pick, and then Antonio/Wilson will probably be injured before you know it. DCL is still a very solid option, great fixtures, I just want to wait and see how attacking Rafa sets his team up.

          1. OptimusBlack
            • 13 Years
            5 years, 1 day ago

    How come everyone seems so sure about Alonso starting over Chilwell, didn’t he play 120 mins mid week?
