Fantasy Football Scout founder Mark Sutherns is back ahead of Gameweek 4 to offer his latest musings and reveal his Fantasy Premier League (FPL) line-up over on our YouTube channel.

This video 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.

In this latest episode, the FPL BlackBox co-host is joined, as always, by Andy North.

Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.5m) is, inevitably, the big talking point although with Andy’s Wildcard in play, there’s plenty more to cover.

Mark offers a review of Andy’s re-work, though he’s reluctant to offer any form of persuasion when it comes to the one final dilemma remaining: whether to opt for Ronaldo or Romelu Lukaku (£11.5m).

Find out why Mark has his own agenda on that matter and which way Andy is leaning by taking in this latest video offering for members.

    Right I’m finally settled, plan would be Torres > Raph next week I think, got 0.2m in the bank!

    Would you prefer shaw over Rudiger?

    Sanchez
    Trent - Rudiger - Coady
    Salah - Jota - Torres - Traore
    DCL - CR7 - Antonio

    Bench: Steele - Sissoko - Livramento - Williams

      We're on near identical teams but you've gone;

      DCL + Jota + Torres
      Vs my
      Lukaku + Sarr + Gray

      Looks good imo.

    Thoughts on latest draft?

    Sanchez (Steele)
    TAA, Shaw, Cancelo, James (Livramento)
    Salah, Torres, Greenwood, Jots (Allan)
    Lukaku, Antonio (4.5)

    0.3 left in the bank

    Debating wether to change Cancelo + Torres for DCL + Gray? Would mean changing to 3,4,3

          Thing about this is, most will play their next wildcard in about 30 weeks time and it's rare you ever have a 'spare' transfer to swap a keeper, so (short-term) fixtures shouldn't really matter.

          Sanchez doesn't really do the bonus and saves, but Brighton are decent defensively. Don't think there will be another Martinez or Pope this season, but if there is I'd say Raya has a decent chance at that price.

          Could be an ok shout, just have to think long-term

          Brighton are a decent defense (so far the 3rd fewest SoT conceded, level with Liverpool) so would say has the best clean sheet prospects long-term

          Ideally you want a good GK that makes a lot of saves and hence racks up a lot of bonus. Not sure who that is this season. Ramsdale could be interesting at 4.5m if he becomes first choice, he had been improved at his time during Sheff Utd despite a poor start.

    3) Torres

    It's currently on Torres, but he might get a random haul and with Jesus out may play 90 mins in ST / CF position.
    Leicester (away) is hard fixture though.

    Sanchez, Meslier
    TAA, Digne, Tierney, Coufal, Marcal
    Salah, Raphinha, Fornals, Odegaard, Sissoko
    Ronaldo, Richarlison, Jimenez

      Pretty differential!
      Think too much spent in defence
      Not convinced on Odegaard
      DCL over Rich if possible

        I'm thinking 5 ATB tomorrow haha. Can't get to DCL. And was thinking either Odegaard or Smith Rowe (flagged)?

    A) Torres + Christensen + Coady
    B) Sarr + Shaw/Rudiger + Semedo

    A seems more exciting bcz of Torres
    B seems the safer option
