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.

    A name I never considered before is Reguilon and just noticed he is 5m, what are peoples thoughts on him and is he nailed

    1. nico05

      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Great shout! First fixture his only issue IMO

    2. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Could be very interesting. I want to see them play first

  2. FPLShaqiri
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Any glaring mistakes here?

    Sanchez
    Shaw TAA Tsimikas
    Salah Son Barnes Mahrez Raphinha
    Antonio Toney

    Raya, Scarlett, Coufal, Ayling

    £1m ITB….

    why is obafemi so popular among all trainers?

    1. CRAZY TRAIN
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I wonder the same - he won't play

      1. xlvxr0
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        i think the same but anyone can tell me for what reason do you have Obafemi?

        1. CRAZY TRAIN
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Its a 4.5 pick and I think that folk are hoping his probable move will lock his price in

  4. SpagBol
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Which one lads?

    A) Wilson +0.5m
    B) DCL
    C) Gundogan +0.5m

  5. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Almost there...

    Quick A or B please. Cheers

    A) Mahrez and Toney
    B) Greenwood/Jota/Gundo and DCL

    1. sirmorbach
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      A with Greenwood and DCL (though I prefer Bamford/ings)

      1. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers

  6. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Chambers nailed to start?

    Him or white?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      White much safer but Chambers more attacking potential. Depends if you have a bench to cover him

  7. xHaTr
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Think I'm there lads. G2G?

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Tsimikas
    Salah Barnes Bruno Greenwood
    Ings Toney Antonio

    Steele Ayling White Gilmour

    1. Quan MisTaka
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      had that but changed toney to buendia

  8. Threat Level Midnight
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    I like Marks thinking regarding Torres. If he hits the ground running up top, he could potentially lock that role down for the whole season. Jesus is an afterthought and it is his for the taking, truly.

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Spurs city is the game I’m most looking forward to

      Personally I think spurs might edge it

      1. Threat Level Midnight
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I expect a high scoring affair myself

    2. chonks
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      will torres start?

    3. Brehmeren
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      And if he doesn't he might get less than a handful of starts

      1. Brehmeren
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Over the season that is

      2. Threat Level Midnight
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Well that would be the inherent risk as comes with any decision. But the reward is far better, and he's an easy switch to Buendia, Benhrama, Sarr, Raph.

        1. Brehmeren
          • 15 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Yes. Picking non-nailed players come with the risk of having to spend an FT transfering them out. Which is why I try to stay clear of them.

  9. Bubbles1985
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    RM first squad for the season:

    Sanchez Foster
    Digne Dias Shaw White Amartey
    Salah Bruno Mahrez Benrahma Gilmour
    Ings Antonio Toney

    Not sure on White and really want Lukaku but not sure it's worth it for him this close after signing!

    Cheers

  10. sirmorbach
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Good to go?

    Meslier (4.0)
    TAA / Shaw / Coufal (White, 4.0)
    Salah / Bruno / Raphinha / Barnes / Benrahma
    Bamford / Ings (4.5)

    1. DIMITRIS
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Gtg

      1. sirmorbach
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Appreciate it, mate, thanks

  11. vandebeek
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    What do you think, will HAvertz start on Saturday?

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Why wouldn’t he?

      1. vandebeek
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        120 minutes in supercup

    2. interpolnyc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Absolutely will, one of the few nailed on

  12. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    What is the points ceiling for this bench?

    Bachmann (AVL) Cancelo (tot) Alonso (CPA) Benrahma (new)

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      15 I guess

    2. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      It’s one of those that could be 8pts but could also be 25pts

      1. cjhewitt92
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Like any early season it feels like big unknown. Villa with no grealish and watkins injured. Spurs without Kane, and which Newcastle will show as they was poor at times last season. So could be a lot.

        Plus crowds back, home teams could cash in

  13. Mufc202020
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Pepe or Barnes for this week now that Pepe looking like he might start up front?

    A) Pepe
    B) Barnes

    1. xlvxr0
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      b

  14. waltzingmatildas
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    A) gundo, (gilmour), ings
    B) mahrez, barnes, (perica)

  15. George James
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Ok order of preference for these 6.5 - 7.5 attackers

    A) Raph
    B) Gundo
    C) Greenwood
    D) Barnes
    E) Toney

  16. McPollolocco
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Only for the 3rd bench spot:
    a) Romeu
    b) Skipp

    Brownhill, Bissouma and Gilmour are not longer available in my mini league!

  17. Sterling Archer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    wonder whos hammy's will last the longest in my front 3???

    wilson
    ings
    antonio

    1. Thescaff
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Lol

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      haha same here, Ings I reckon

    3. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      We're talking minutes and not gameweeks

  18. Ibralicious
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Oh no- is omo confirmed out? Saw the yellow flag on FPL and everyone get rid of him in their drafts today

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      No idea but can't understand why you'd want him

      1. Ibralicious
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Because fortune favors the brave, my son

    2. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Think Farke said he had tonsillitis this week and hasn't fully trained

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Who’ll play instead?

  19. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Do I look good to go?

    Sanchez
    Trent Shaw Veltman Tsimikas
    Salah Bruno Son Raphinha
    Ings Antonio

    (4 Ayling Brownhill 4.5)

    Ta

    1. Ibralicious
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Ayling to Omo and Veltman to Coufal

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Omo isn't nailed tho, is he?
        When Robbo is back I'd possibly have only three defenders..

  20. WhatWouldYourZlatanSay
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Currently...

    Martinez (4.0)

    Shaw/TAA/Digne/Tsimikas/Amartey

    Salah/Bruno/Barnes/Jorginho/Brownhill

    Antonio/Ings/Toney

    Y or N question:

    is it worth 4.0 keeper / Barnes / Amartey > Sanchez / Benrahma / Ayling given Villa fixtures from GW 4 and Leicester defenders returning?

    Cheers guys

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Think you need to upgrade Amartey but not in that way
      Downgrade Martinez to Sanchez/Meslier/Schmeichel/Bachmann?

  21. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    White or Ayling?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      White

    2. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      White

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      White

  22. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Obafemi still likely to go to Blackburn?

  23. Pukki Party
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Reguilon at 5.0 has started last 3 preseason games in a Nuno side. wol WAT cry after ManCity in gw1. Overlooked?

    1. cjhewitt92
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I was think about matt doherty, after nuno time at Wolves but not sure

  24. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Alonso or Rudiger

    Doing my head in

    Ughhhh

    1. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Rudiger=nailed

    2. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      WCing early

  25. barcaa7
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Which option is better ?
    a-Gundo ,Greenwood
    b-Mahrez , Raphinha

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Hard. 50/50 but lets say B

  26. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone better than Coufal to get a 5.0 (or below)?

    Preference is a good GW3/4/6 which annoying leads me back to the likes of Digne 😀

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Dunk?

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I do like Dun but EVE/BRE don't fill me with confidence. I already have Sanchez. I think if I get Dunk he should be playing GW1/GW2 which he wouldn't do in my squad currently.

    2. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I'm trying to squeeze in Reguilon

    3. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Dunk for me as I own Willock
      Dunk last 2 seasons...
      8 goals
      20 CS
      34 Bps

    4. cjhewitt92
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Tsimikas for a punt. Tierney is a key player for Arsenal in a back 3.

      What people think of Burnley this year, someone like Charlie Taylor

  27. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Cresswell is criminally overlooked on here. Guy's an absolute beast

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Wish I could afford him

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I don't have TAA so easy for me I guess

    2. Pompel
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      He is also 5.5, as is Shaw for which the same can be said. So I'm going Coufal

    3. interpolnyc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      .5 less for Coufal is why, much better value

      1. mezza
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        People were saying the same last season

      2. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I don't think he is really

  28. mcginnntonic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Mahrez or Sancho?

    Don't have bruno

    1. interpolnyc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Sancho prob coming on as a sub

    2. Pompel
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Mahrez if you can afford

    3. cjhewitt92
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Is Mahrez a better city option than Grealish

  29. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Triple West Ham too much :
    Coufal - Benrahma - Antonio
    ???
    Was originally on Buendia, but don't like the look of that GW4 fixture swing when also having Ings

  30. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Just did Ings+Barnes--->Toney+Mahrez. Would you say that's rational? Just can't start the season without any of the city boys. Cheers
