Mark Sutherns makes his usual Friday night return alongside Andy on the eve of Gameweek 6 to reveal his latest thoughts and 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.

This week we find Mark preparing for an afternoon of anguish as he goes in without Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.7m) and with no less than three Chelsea players as they take on Man City.

Andy, meanwhile, is feeling far more confident about the Gameweek, off the back of a green arrow and with a certain Watford winger newly installed in his line-up ahead a visit from an injury-strewn Newcastle United.

Find out their thoughts on the captaincy debate, going big at the back and watch out for an appearance from a certain Wizard towards the end, forcing Mark to fumble for the mute button.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      I think premiership teams should start announcing their formation in exactly the same way.

      1. Third Eye Vision
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Yeah. This is more of an announcement than a RMT. Like it.

  2. George James
    • 11 Years

    Cap one

    A) Salah
    B) Antonio

      Cheers all. Shocked at the unanimous Semedo over James. Very interesting

  3. kobewan
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Play two:

    A. Raphinha (WHU)
    B. Livramento (WOL)
    C. Coady (Sou)

    1. Dream Killers 2.0
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      A and B

      1. kobewan
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Saints v Wolves a difficult match up to predict

    2. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      I think you have them in the right order

      1. kobewan
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Any Idea how Rap does without Bamford?

        1. Nay08
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 20 days ago

          I don't know about statistics and stuff but I think he'll do okay. if anything, Raph makes Bamford better not the other way around imo.

          1. kobewan
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 20 days ago

            Thanks, cheers

  4. Punty McPuntface
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Anyone think that Salah could be rested for all or part of today's match?

    1. Dream Killers 2.0
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      No

    2. Tomerick
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      The guys so fit that he considers playing a rest.

  5. Dream Killers 2.0
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Have 2 FTs so want to burn one this week so I can carry 2 for next week. Any suggestions?

    Bachmann
    TAA, Rudiger, Tierney, Semedo
    Raphinha, Salah, Jota, Greenwood
    Ronaldo, Antonio

    Foster, Dennis, Allan, Williams

    1. Von Lipwig
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Raph > Sarr

      1. Dream Killers 2.0
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Blocked out as already have 3 Watford players.

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      This above

      1. Dream Killers 2.0
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Already have 3 Watford players. Can't have 4

    3. Nay08
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      if we thinking short-term, maybe Benrahma or Leicester player.

  6. Von Lipwig
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Play Livramento (WOL h) or Rudi (MCI h)

    1. NotsoSpursy
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      I’m going for a Chelsea win so Rudi

      1. Nay08
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        a win doesn't necessarily means FPL points tho.
        so I'm thinking Livramento is better.

  7. Mesh
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Who to start?
    A. Marcal
    B. Livramento

    (I have Jiminez)

    1. NotsoSpursy
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      B

  8. NotsoSpursy

    Armband on-
    A. Ronaldo
    B. Salah

    1. Dream Killers 2.0
      • 10 Years

      A

    2. Fabreghastly

      5 years, 20 days ago

      The C poll tells you the popular pick. Three or four people replying on here will just give you a meaningless snapshot of who's on at the moment

    3. NotsoSpursy
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Thanks Fab, very true
      Who are you going for ?

      1. Fabreghastly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        CR7 but I think Antonio has the best chance of scoring the most of all three

        Yeah think you're right

        1. Gabbiadini

    bottomed
    need some recommendation. I will use WC on GW8. so I plan to do transfers punt on these 2 weeks.
    the players that I will transfer out are Bamford and Ayling.
    as of right now I must play one of Bamford, Ayling, or Brownhill.

    Plan 1:
    transfer Ayling out this week and do Bamford next. with a hope that if Bamford is okay on the next week I can do better transfer such as Digne or Shaw out.

    Plan 2:
    Bamford this week and Ayling next. I can bench Ayling next week and just do transfers such as Digne or Shaw out too tbh.

    option for Bamford: Dennis, Wood, ASM, Jimenez.
    option for Ayling: Pereira, Semedo.

    as of right now I stand on plan 1. as my GW7 backline right now are TAA, Shaw, Digne, Ayling, and Tsimikas. bad fixture.

    Sorry for the essay lol. but will appreciate if anybody have the time to help 🙂

    Who are you capping and why??

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      You, for repeating posts

    2. Holmes
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      I dont do WHY stuff with my captain, whoever clicks first, gets the armband.

    3. Eleven Hag
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Ronaldo as I feel

      - Brentford has a better chance of keeping Salah quiet
      - Villa dont usually park the bus which could give us more chances on the break
      - Antonio, not sure how Leeds would approach the game with all the injuries and also the state of the pitch wasnt good last season for the away teams to score many goals

    4. lugs
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Salah, because its the evening game and i think he has a good chance of scoring, plus as the Utd game clashes with Chelsea vs City and i'd rather watch that than the Utd game, so no Ronaldo cap for me

    5. jack88
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Ronaldo. At home Against villa. He is shooting like crazy, being tackled at box. Everyone feeds him

  13. Eleven Hag
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Would you sell Bamford, if this is the team I put out if benching him which includes Rafinha?

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Livra James
    Salah Rafh Ben Sarr
    Ron (c) Antonio
    - Foster Duffy Gilmour Bamford

    1. Fabreghastly

      Not on current information no

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        whats the current info, sorry out of the loop

        1. Fabreghastly
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          5 years, 20 days ago

          Not known how long he's out for, but presumed not long

          Leeds have really good fixtures

          1. Eleven Hag
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 20 days ago

            Thanks

    2. Dream Killers 2.0
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      No.

  14. john25
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Hey guys, would you say Thiago Silva is equally nailed on as Rudiger?

    Cheers

    1. Holmes
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      lil bit less. Say Rudiger gets 9 out of 10 games, I would expect Thiago to get 7.

    2. Pinturicchio10
      5 years, 20 days ago

      He's pushing 40

    3. Alton E.
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Absolutely not

    4. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      No. Tilva is much older and will be prioritised for CL. Expect more Christensen and Chalobah in PL.

    5. Gabbiadini
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      no.

    6. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Hell nope...

  15. Twisted Melon

    Chance Torres starts?

    1. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      More than a chance

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      70%

  16. denial
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Anyone playing Foster over Sanchez?

    1. Zilla
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      We might have 1 option at the end of the day

    2. winchester
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Think i will yes

  17. fish&chips
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    No idea which one to bench. None of them great options to be fair

    A) James
    B) Livramento
    C) Sissoko
    D) Semedo

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      C easy

    2. Dream Killers 2.0
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      C

    3. waldo666
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      D

    4. fish&chips
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Yeah between these 2 for me. Original plan was bench sissoko but he has a great fixture. Most probably a 2 pointer though and I think semedo has more routes to points so I guess C is where I'm headed

      1. fish&chips
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Thanks all

  18. De Gea is GOAT
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    What would you change about this team? 1FT. Thanks guys

    Traore to Gray?

    Sanchez
    TAA Semedo Livramento Shaw
    Bruno Salah (c) Traore Benrhama
    Lukaku Antonio (maybe cap)?

    Foster White Kovacic

    1. waldo666
      • 16 Years

      Looks a good move.

      1. De Gea is GOAT

    keeper and back 3 from

    ddg / sanchez
    duffy livra reguilon white taa

    current thinking
    ddg
    taa livra white

    ??

    1. nothingbutgreen
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      basically it’s white or duffy i think

      1. Elfozzie 42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        White looks good to me.

  20. Evasivo
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Have 2FTs and 4 injured…. Who to go:

    A) Ayling
    B) Raphinha
    C) Bissouma
    D) Gundo

    1. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      A and D

    2. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      I read Gundo didn't travel

      I'd save the second

    3. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Difficult to be sure without the rest of the team. If you can go Ayling to someone decent (Chelsea/City etc) then I think that's a good move.

      1. Evasivo
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Only have £0.1itb so not possible. I reckon Ayling and Raph need to go but perhaps one of above and Gundo as above

    4. Nay08
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Depends on the rest of your team and money in the bank of course. but if we just take from those options, in my opinion, it's Raph and Gundo because on their position and price range can be optimized more than Ayling and Bissouma.

      1. Evasivo
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Can do Gundo>Benra leaving £0.9 to upgrade Raph or Ayling….

    5. Evasivo
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Raph>Sarr
      Gundo>Benra

      Done, thanks all

  21. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Best option this week?

    A Raphinha to Sarr
    B Bamford to ASM
    C Bamford to Maupay
    D Bamford to Dennis
    E Roll FT

    Current team
    Sanchez
    Digne Shaw TAA Duffy
    Raphinha Salah (VC) Benrahma Gray
    Antonio Ron (C)
    SUBS - Tsimikas Gilmour BAMFORD

    1. The Legend Squad
      • 12 Years

      Raph to Sarr looks nice

      1. Dream Killers 2.0
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        A

    2. waldo666

    3. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years

      I"m considering A or B myself, but tbh I would probably go E

  22. Aaa
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    On wc with £1.8itb. GTG?

    Guaita
    TAA/James/Alonso
    Salah(c)/Pogba/Sarr/Gray
    Ronaldo/Antonio/Armstrong
    (Foster/Liv/Duffy/Gilmour)

    1. kysersosa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Yep, like it. You’ve got a range of premiums across positions.

      Can you go Rudiger over James or Alonso? Just I think you’ve got a fairly nailed and a gamble then.

      I’ve gone Ron over Salah this week, but community is split on that one.

  23. waldo666
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    What do we think here? Toney out looks the obvious given his fixtures. 2FT and 0.5 ITB. Not keen on losing Greenwood or Jota this week.

    Looking at the medium to long term for whoever comes in, usually save WC for December. Thoughts appreciated.

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Livramento
    Salah Jota Raphinha Greenwood
    Ronaldo Antonio Toney

    (Steele White Gilmour Ayling)

    A) Toney to ASM
    B) Toney to Armstrong
    C) Ayling to Christensen
    D) Something else

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      C may prove to be more profitable. If you're confident he plays?

      1. waldo666
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        I'm not really but figure he's not that likely to get a cameo if he doesn't.

    2. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      Given you'd have 2 transfers to build Chelsea next week, I think you can afford A or B. A is by far the most fun!

      1. waldo666
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Yeah cheers, was leaning to Armstrong of the two as better long term fixtures but yeah, ASM is pretty exciting.

    3. Footieboot
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 20 days ago

      I have exactly the same team with you. Not planning to move Toney out. Other options around that price look even worse odds wise despite the fixtures.

      1. waldo666
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 20 days ago

        Excellent team mate 😉 I must admit I'm somewhat reluctant, would probably save if I only had 1 FT.

        1. Footieboot
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 20 days ago

          I think moving Ayling out would be a better shout

  24. kysersosa
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 20 days ago

    Apart from next week, has anyone looked when the next fixture swing is? Currently planning on holding my WC but wondering if I’d actually get the most impact using it in the next few GW’s.

    TIA

      Around GW14, isn't it?

      Isn't the wild card best played when you have injuries and suspensions to deal with? It's not all about fixtures... You need form players.

        I think that can be a reason, when you have to take a -8 to get 11 out, but I think also planning to capitalise on where you feel the points are going to
        Come from.

      There isn't a major swing in the first half of the season. The strongest fixture runs can all be planned for with free transfers and the very odd hit.

      Around GW14 I think. With such a long run and time to plan are you working out a WC based on this? Such an amount of time, you can plan without WC consideration IMO

        That’s true for the whole season really. I assume you use your WC based on necessity and injuries etc vs fixture swings?

          A bit of them all. The second WC I use totally differently due to DGW's I suppose. I used in GW4 (Stupid) thinking I would know how to navigate fixture runs at less cost than a WC

      I note the point 2 teams playing each other but should that necessarily form part of your decision making?
