Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 13 preview and latest team plans

Andy North and Mark Sutherns drop into their regular Friday night slot for another laid-back look at the key Fantasy Premier League (FPL) talking points ahead of Gameweek 13.

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.

Ben Chilwell‘s (£6.0m) injury, coupled with some early Sunday night transfers, has forced Mark to take only his second hit of the season. However, when it’s Marcos Alonso (£5.6m) coming in, he seems more than happy to take his medicine.

As for Andy, he’s closing the gap on Mark after another green arrow and, having resisted a hasty move for Reece James (£6.1m), is still considering his own hit to swap out Phil Foden (£8.3m) for Diogo Jota (£7.6m).

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

      1. Evasivo

        With those players removed yes

    5. ClaudesMackerelelé
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Alonso and cornet- easy

  2. Inspector Gadget
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Bench two:

    A. Tierney (NEW)
    B. Raphinha (bha)
    C. Mbeumo (EVE)
    D. Gallagher (AVL)
    E. Antonio (mci)
    F. Toney (EVE)
    G. Hwang (nor)

    Currently on the Brentford boys, but not sure that is the right call.

    1. boroie
      • 5 Years

      B & E

    2. thepancakeman123
      • 5 Years

      Difficult one. I would bench Mbeumo and Antonio

    Worth -4 to get Cancelo for Livra, or play White?

    Who gets more points?

    A) White
    B) Cancelo -4

    1. thepancakeman123
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B if you look at it as a longer term investment (so to speak).

    3. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Close this week pts-wise, so either move is fine

    4. kenzo.
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B every day of the week... He is the second best player in the game rn after salah... Arguably second best in the prem rn

  4. pmj174

    Thoughts changes to below side? Undecided whether to change Foden to Jota or roll transfer. Duffy is 1st cover on bench. 1.9m ITB

    Sanchez
    James TAA Cancelo
    Gallagher Son Foden Salah ESR
    Wilson Dennis

    Foster Duffy Antonio Livra

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Get Jota, you’ll regret if not if Foden is benched

      1. pmj174
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks.That's what I was thinking but prefer foden for the long term. Will just have to buy back if needed !

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          And maby Bilva or Gundo arises as better and cheaper City options

    2. I am 42
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I will roll in case pool match got pp

      1. pmj174
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Hmm..agree. this has definitely confused things !

  5. I am 42
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    any chance foden will feature this game week?

    in case pool game got pp as I have 3 pool and 1 saint

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      50/50

    2. I am 42
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      and don't vc pool or saint player if you are c Salah

      1. The Mentaculus
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Good point. Moved VC off Mané

    3. FPL Bond @ Twitter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Why Pool match will be postponed?

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

    Morning

    Currently having to play bith Gilmour and Antonio with only Livra as my bench.

    Do you think it's worth a hit to get Alonso for Chilwell, or wait 'til next week?

    1. Bennerman
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'd probably go for it, the transfer

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wait

    3. I am 42
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      assuming all your bench player blank

      take a hit if you think Alonso will score more than 6

    4. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I have no bench other than Livra who is odds-on for a 0 or 1 pointer.

      1. I am 42
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I will go for it

    5. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks all

  7. PocketZola

      Hold

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I think you're good provided your bench isn't needed.

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

        Antonio to auba and chill to 4.0

        Or

        Mbuemo to jota and chill to 4.0

    3. Don Van Vliet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Multiple hits to the head, in hopes your spelling improves. Otherwise, good to go!

  8. Iain Dowies Love Child
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Is starting Gilmour over Antonio or Rudiger madness?

    Sanchez
    TAA - Cancelo - White
    Salah - Jota - Bernardo - Gallagher - Gilmour
    Vardy - ASM
    (Foster - Rudiger - Antonio - Manquillo)

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

      Yes

      1. Iain Dowies Love Child
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Which one of Rudiger or Antonio to start then?

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

          Sometimes i like starting a defender and an attacker playing against each other if yiu watch the game, in theory you get a cs or attacking points. I'd start Antonio

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'd 100% be playing Rudiger if I had him.

      1. Iain Dowies Love Child
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Ta

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

    4. I am 42
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      that was my initial plan

      the more I think of it the more insane I feel

    5. Peteski29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Play Rudiger

  9. LLoris
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    1) Will Azpi play?

    Transfers
    A) Antonio our Hwang In
    B) B. White out Regulon in
    C) Azpi out for James/Alonso

  10. King Kun Ta

    Play White or Antonio?

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

      That's a tough one, White just.

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Antonio

    3. Peteski29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Antonio

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

    As someone whos not in the UK... What's all this talk about the Liverpool game being called off? This typically only happens when it snows?

    1. Bennerman
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      The usual on here - one match burning a million trees.

      There is very little substance to it at this point. We had one rugby game called off, that was in Newcastle (miles from Liverpool).

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

        Cheers, couldn't find much online!

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Some bloke on Twitter. Whoosh.

      2. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Andy is a good guy but does embarrass himself sometimes - this is one of those moments. Just looking for some attention

        1. Well you know, Triffic
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Haha. I guess to create a buzz in any form of media, the best way to do it is to have outlandish headlines.

        2. Bennerman
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          This is the social media way. Say something first, wonder about whether it was worth saying later

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Game won’t be cancelled. It’s not even that windy

  13. FantasyClub
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Ronaldo ➡️ Kane -4

    Or

    Ronaldo ➡️ Lukaku -4

    (I’m getting Lukaku next GW for sure so should I just transfer him in now, don’t think Ronaldo will return nor do I want him on bench)

    1. Fozzyb34r
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A

    2. Iain Dowies Love Child
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'd hold until Lukaku is def back

      1. FantasyClub
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Surely Lukaku starts against WAT, that’s ample rest time don’t you think?

    3. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I dont think Kane will make up -4 in just 1GW

    4. RamaJama

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo

      Yes nice side

  15. Oggle22
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Is it worth a -4 to get Trent would mean losing jesus or Toney

    Ramsdale
    James Livramento Tsimikas
    Salah Son Raph ESR
    Jesus CR7 Toney

    Foster Manquillo Luiz Chilwell

    Tsimikas may not play which means Manquillo of the bench who may also not play

    Cheers

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Do it

    2. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years

      Worth it for Trent I think. Wouldnt really want to play Livramento this GW either

  16. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Tempted to captain Auba but sod would miss a peno and get -2, won’t he?

    1. Fozzyb34r
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Never captain the early kick off

      1. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I've never understood this. Superstition?

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Don’t. He either takes pens and misses or he’s lost them entirely.

    3. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 3 Years

      I captained v Watford. Was incredibly painful.

      He does have a great record v Newcastle

  17. The Count of Monte Cristo
    • 11 Years

    First time with a benching problem == Correct starting XI?

    Sánchez
    TAA - Cancelo - James - White
    Salah - Son - Raphinha - Saka - Gallagher
    Toney

    Foster - Wilson - Antonio - Livramento

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

      I'd start Wilson over Gallagher, but don't blame this advice, I am no fortune-teller.

      I'd keep and make sure i have a good bench. Raphinha, Gallagher would be my picks though
