Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 11 preview and latest team plans

Mark Sutherns and Andy North are back ahead of Gameweek 11 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) after contrasting fortunes last time out.

Mark is recording for our subscribers every Gameweek throughout the upcoming campaign, so sign up via this link in order to see his regular appearances.

The FPL BlackBox co-host arrives off the back of a disastrous short-term result from his Wildcard which saw his overall rank double, while Andy sneaked a small green arrow to edge himself up the ladder.

But sporting an early doors Christmas jumper, Mark is in an optimistic mood, particularly with his darling Diogo Jota seemingly set to start Gameweek 11 as a potential differential.

The pair give their views on Spurs’ prospects under new boss Antonio Conte and offer some advice to those wrestling bench dilemmas ahead of Friday’s Gameweek 11 deadline.

    Help me out lads, need a Keeper for long term (GW20 or so) got Foster and only 4.5m

    Candidates are:

    Guaita, McCarthy or can do Sanchez (for a hit with Dias out for Chilwell, but I already have James and Rudi).

      Lads or lasses sorry!!!

      1. Don Van Vliet
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Fellas or fallopians.

    2. JariL
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Guaita. Sanchez not worth a hit over him.

      Coin flip between the two

      1. Respect My Authoritah
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        McCarthy or Guaita that is

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

      I'm a Guaita advocate

      I got McCarthy in GW9. Switching to Guaita in GW13. Nothing wrong with getting Guaita now and keeping until GW20

      I'm in similar boat with

      Ramsdale
      Gauita
      Sanches

      As options....don't know which way yo swing

    6. Bavarian
      • 6 Years

    We bench made of A. Armstrong, Livramento, Gallagher and Guiata - I'm really tempted to play bench boost this week.

    I known people often leave it for double gameweeks but personally never had much luck in the last and often it meant I was left with some dross after playing it.

    1. abaalan
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Had 30 on my bench last week including 1 non starter...so could work!

    2. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I would probably want a better option than AA if I was playing BB.

    3. Will Kane
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Trying to do it on DGW never works for me either. Go for it!

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

      The bench is strong now. The bench will be strong by DGWs too, most likely. Many of the cheap assets doing well with good fixtures now are unlikely to be much more expensive by the time DGW season rolls along, as they slide in and out of the template

      So this is a bit different from the usual season trend of having duds until DGWs, buying bench players for the DGWs, then trying to get rid after

      This is the value season. Well, so far, it is. Some major Arsenal, Everton, Leeds, Southampton, Brentford, Wolves, Chelsea, City and even Spurs assets are cheaper now than they'll likely be next season

      So if you're considering a SGW bench boost, please keep in mind that cheap assets will probably be on your bench anyway by the time DGWs and BGWs roll around

      1. el polako
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        That's definitely something I didn't consider, thanks.

      2. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        This is only really true whilst we have permacaptain Salah. AFCON is coming shortly even if his performance doesnt drop

      3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        True dat - AFCON is still miles away for Salah too

        First group stage game for Egypt isn’t until 11th Jan

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          And the aformentioned DGW games will be when?

          1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            I suggest you start doing some research & educating yourself

            1. Piggs Boson
              • 12 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              * Read Me *

              Don't mind me, I'm just leaving a marker so I can come back later and read the fallout.

    5. el polako
      • 6 Years

      Thanks everyone, some food for thought there. Luckily still have few hours.

    6. abaalan
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Did you end up playing your BB?! Would have been pretty epic by looks of things...

      A. Armstrong (9), Livramento (6), Gallagher (11) and Guiata (6) - make that 32 points, would have been nice 😀

  7. abaalan
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Worth a punt of Wilson to replace Antonio with 1ft and nothing urgent?
    Fixtures are much better..

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I like the punt, but I would like to have 2FTs going into an IB.

  8. DARE TO BISCAN
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Sanchez
    TAA, Christensen, Cancelo
    Havertz, Salah, Raph, ESR
    Antonio, Toney, Vardy
    (4.0, Liv, Duffy, Allan) £2.2m

    a) Christensen > James/Chilwell
    b) Havertz > Son

    Tempted by B. But, A gives more options. Thinking Jota/Foden next week & upgrading Duffy/Allan later.

    1. LOS BLANCOS
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      B

  9. The Red Devil
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Dias + Havertz -> James + Son (-4)
    Yay or nay?

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Nay

    2. Cornholi0
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Just Dias to James

      1. The Red Devil
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Interesting, just that havertz will be sold irrespective of things next GW, so thought I'll hop on to the spurs bandwagon

        1. MIGHTY JOE
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Nay. Keep Havertz for this fixture and let him go next GW - that’s my plan at least.

  10. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Captaining Kane - out of the question?

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Not ootq but you can not ignore Salah given EO and his current form.

      1. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Fair enough, not the week to go rogue

    2. el polako
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I'd rather captain Mbuemo.

      1. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        That’s my other question, start Mbeumo or Gallagher? I guess you would say Mbeumo?

        1. el polako
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Yep

  11. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Bench who?

    A) Antonio
    B) Livramento

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      A. I never like benching attacking players regardless of the fixture.

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Considering downgrading Antonio to Broja and have 2 FTs next week to get Kane or Son.

        Or just get James for Christensen and save A FT, and play Antonio

    2. Dreams

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years

      Raphinha and Livramento

  14. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years

    OR: 650k
    FT: Rudiger to James

    McCarthy
    TAA Cancelo Chilwell James Livra
    Salah Son Foden
    Vardy Hwang

    Matthews • Antonio Brownhill D.Luiz

    Tempted to cap Son, who's likely to be my GW12 cap anyway (depending on how Son and Leeds defence play in GW11). Still, there aren't enough reasons to not cap Salah this GW. Owning Son at 18% before the likely rush from GW12 should be enough, then

  15. Claudio555
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Play Livra (AVL) or Gray (TOT)?

    1. Cornholi0
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Livra!

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Livra

    3. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Gray

  16. The Senate
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    A Gallagher
    B Trossard
    C Raphinha?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Play Raphina

      1. The Senate
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        This is to buy on WC

    2. Claudio555
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Trossard

    3. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      A short term.
      C is the best but Leeds don't look good, there's an IB next and their fixtures till GW 21 are tricky.

    4. Bavarian
      • 6 Years

      C

  17. sovietrockettes
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Lots of talk of benching Antonio, should I be starting Livramento over him? Surely not, right?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Start Antonio

  18. No_Mo_Salah?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Play Duffy or Livra this week?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Duffy

  19. EmreCan Hustle
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    My advantageous position is becoming a bit tricky.

    2FTs. But not sure what to do.

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo James
    Salah Foden Mount Mbeumo
    Vardy Jimenez Toney

    Nothing in the bank.

    B. Dias to Chilwell(bench Jimenez).
    C. Mount to someone(who?).

    Thanks.

  20. dshv

      1

  21. Inter Me Gran
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Is James worth a Capt punt this week? Assume everyone will C Salah so could be a differential.

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      What score do you expect him to get?

      1. Inter Me Gran
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Well minimum 6 which could easily outscore Salah this week. With his current form a goal/assist is not out the question

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Hard to argue with his current form. But I guess you know the risks.

  22. Norco
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Is Azpi > Chilwell or James too side ways?
    (I know that's a little ridiculous given the form of them but do we think Azpi could actually feature?)

  23. The Red Devil
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    The players I want if I had more FTs ahe
    James, son, ESR
    Players I wanna sell- Dias, Havertz, Gray
    Which do you think has the biggest upside? Best option for this week? Can do two of the moves for a hit too

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Son
      James

      1. The Red Devil
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Get in both for a hit?

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Prefer just one

          1. The Red Devil
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Aah, that's the conundrum, tempted to go for both or maybe give havertz one last game

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      It's Dias to James this GW, Havertz to Son next GW for me

      1. The Red Devil
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        My issue with that is, next GW I'm pondering Vardy to Ronaldo/Kane
        Then is havertz to son upgrade won't be possible

  24. Legohair

    Ramsdale

    Salah-Son-Raphinha-Mbeumo

    Whats best plan??

    A. Gray to ESR
    B. Tierney to Chilwell
    C. Jesus&Sanchez to Auba&Foster(and captain Auba)
    D. A+B

  25. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Are these transfers worth a hit?

    Antonio + Havertz + Dias 》》》Toney + Son + James

    Or just do Antonio 》 Toney and roll the other transfer?

    Sanchez
    Rud Dias Chilwell TAA
    Mbeumo Raph Salah Havertz

    1. stu92
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Triple Chelsea defence seems a lot.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        James is explosive, Chilwell is probably up there with the best attacking fullbacks and Rudiger is as nailed as it could get. I know its a risk but Chelsea have 7 CS from 10 games, having played Spurs, City, Utd, Pool and Arsenal. Can't see them stopping anytime soon tbh.

    2. tbos83
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Just Antonio > Toney and roll

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers mate.

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Triple Chelsea defence is asking for trouble

      They aren’t going to keep conceding 3 goals from their next 10 XGc, and fixtures are turning

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Seen few points from you on this. They do concede chances but they also have a reliable keeper, but yeah it's a risk. I just feel like I don't want to miss on James hauls when he starts while the other 2 are also good.

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

      Alternatively: Rudiger to James, Dias to Cancelo for free. Start Hwang/Livra over Antonio instead of selling

      Or bench Dias and Antonio for Hwang and Livra, just the one FT for the switch to a WB, then take two FTs into the international break and reassess

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks mate.

  26. stu92
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Thoughts on this wildcard? Dunk and Gray are the weak links I think.

    Guita 4.0
    Chilwell Dias White Dunk Johnson
    Salah Son Gray ESR Gilmour
    Ronaldo Antonio Toney

    1. tbos83
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ronaldo > Vardy
      Gray > Gallagher

      1. tbos83
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        (and should give you funds to upgrade Gilmour)

  27. C_G

      Thoughts on Ben Johnson (3.9m) as 5th defender to fund Havertz -> Son?

      Other defenders are TAA, Chilwell, Cancelo, Livra

      What to do?
      A) Benrahma to Mbeumo (no value tied up)
      B) Antonio to Toney (value tied up)
      C) Antonio + Benrahma to Toney + Mbeumo (-4)
      D) Antonio + Benrahme to Toney + Mount (-4)
