FPL Gameweek 34 Q&A and Mark Sutherns’ Free Hit draft

It’s the day before another deadline, so it’s time for the one and only Mark Sutherns’ take on the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) landscape.

Mark is once again joined by Andy North but in a slight deviation from the usual format, the pair step in for Az and Sam to host our weekly Q&A video.

It’s a charity special, too, as all the money raised from the Super Chats is going to Street Child United.

Our co-hosts will also be discussing their own team and transfer plans for Gameweek 34, with Mark revealing his Free Hit draft.

Technical issues (would you expect anything less?) means that the video is cut into two parts, both of which are below.

    OK Final WC 34 (BB36 left)

    Ramsdale (Foster)
    TAA, Robertson, Laporte, Cancelo, Alonso
    Sterling, Salah, Mount(C), Saka (KDH)
    Werner (Nketiah, Pukki)

    0.0 ITB

    Going to do -4 each week

    Next week, Say Sterling to Son Mount to Coutinho
    The week after that Son to KDB, and Werner to a DGW striker.9 maybe a 8 for Cash)

    Is this too bullish?

    Probabl

    1. Cheeky Onion

      2 years, 23 days ago

      Seems a bit aggressive to take so many hits right after playing a WC

    2. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      My only problem with Sterling to Son, is what if Sterling scores against Watford and is benched in the CL. Would you still want to sell him?

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        yes i want KDB, may need to drop Alonso:)

        But Son v a tired Leicester!

      Personally think Werner is group hysteria and would swerve all Chelsea defence. Happy to be proved wrong but not keen on a defence that has conceded 4 in the last 2 home games and has lost its one key defender and rotates every week. Not even sure the schedule is good.

      I'd pop Havertz in as the 5th mid and get Cash now for the bench.

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Thanks PINGISSIMUS

      2. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Nketiah or Mateta?

  2. darkmatt3r
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Is there anything worth changing or save the ft?
    1ft 0 itb

    Sánchez

    Cancelo Robertson Emerson Royal

    Kdb Salah Mount(c) Saka Ramsey

    Kane Pukki

    Foster Gelhardt White Williams

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Maybe James in, but otherwise save the transfer.

  3. Cheeky Onion
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Which of these transfers would you prioritize for BB GW36?

    A) De Gea > Mendy/Schmeichel
    B) Royal > Alonso
    C) Broja > Dennis
    D) Edouard > Pukki
    E) Bachmann > Foster

    Have 3 FT's to use til then and open to taking a hit

    1. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      A or E

    2. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      E. You can get away with playing A this week.

    https://mobile.twitter.com/David_Ornstein/status/1517580327350382592

    Jesus looks like he's on his way out of City, and, might going to Arsenal

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      *might be going

    2. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Once Barcelona enter the race he won't

      1. PartyTime
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Hahaha

    3. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Quite relieved about that - I was worried that Haland goes to City and Mbpappe to Madrid we might be tempted to go for Jesus to replace Ronaldo rather than Benzema

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        You think Benzema would rather go to a ManUtd side in transition and in EL rather than stay at a side where they're flying high in the league and might win the CL and where he'll play alongside Mbappe?

    4. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Paving the way for Haaland

    5. PartyTime
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Would fit in perfectly at Arsenal

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        I think so too, people seem to have forgotten how lethal a finisher he was when he first arrived at City and he still has that in his locker, has that selfish streak that Arsenal could do with a bit of too

    6. NorCal Villan
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Jesus just left Chicago and he’s bound for New Orleans

      Ah, take me with you Jesus

      1. panda07
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Nobody f***s with the Jesus!

        1. NorCal Villan
          • 2 Years
          2 years, 23 days ago

          Jesus, don't cry
          You can rely on me, honey
          You can combine anything you want
          I'll be around
          You were right about the stars
          Each one is a setting sun

  5. Bruno Commando
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    On a WC and torn between these 2 options. Which is better for DGW36?

    1) Werner + Gordon
    2) Mount + Nketiah/JRod

    Schmeichel
    TAA Cancelo Matip Laporte James
    Salah KDB Kulu Havertz
    _____

    Foster Dennis Pukki _____

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Mount + JRod but it's a coin toss.

      1. Bruno Commando
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Thanks mate! Yeah it's not an easy pick!

  6. The White Pele
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    For this gw only:
    A) Kane
    B) Ronaldo

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Ronaldo

  7. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Reguillon owners, confident he starts? Or Sessegnon this week

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Hard to know.

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Very. Be annoying for my BB if he doesn’t

  8. Redranger
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    How’s this WC looking?

    Foster Schmeichel
    TAA Matip Cancelo White XXX
    Salah Saka Son Mount Havertz
    Pukki Dennis Nketiah

    A) Laporte
    B) Alonso

    1. Aenima FC
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      B

  9. Angelic upstart
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Best GK for the rest of the season.
    Can't be ederson or Allison

    1. Angelic upstart
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      That's supposed to read who's the best Gk!

    2. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Schimeichel

  10. Well you know, Triffic
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    On wildcard, is it madness to go without Salah (if i won't be captaining him for the next 3 weeks):

    Schimeichel
    TAA James Cancelo Laporte
    Son Sterling Jota Havertz Mount
    Pukki

    Foster Dennis Gelhardt 4.2

    1. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I'm doing it so going to say it's fine 🙂

    2. Bruno Commando
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I wouldn't do it since Liverpool will be pushing all the way...

    3. faulksp
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I went without him last week and got punished. First name on WC this week !

  11. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Dubravka
    TAA Rudiger Schar
    Salah Son Saka Barnes
    Kane Weghorst Broja

    Ramsdale KDH Kilman Doherty

    1FT, 0.1itb

    Rudiger Barnes Weghorst >> James Mount Gelhardt (-8) ??

    Don’t like the (-8) but feel like I need to make the moves…

    Thoughts appreciated.

  12. The Frenchie
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Maddison owner do you keep him?

    1. NorCal Villan
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I moved him out for Mount

  13. DavidKent
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Best Chelsea defender, given Rudiger’s injury?

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      James

      1. Bruno Commando
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        This

        1. DavidKent
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 23 days ago

          No desire for Alonso, given James recently been at CB?

          1. artvandelay316
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 23 days ago

            What's the situation here? Is it confirmed he will continue in this position?

  14. MysticMac17
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Thoughts on this FH team?

    De Gea
    Alonso Laporte Cancelo Dalot
    Mount Havertz Salah Jota Sterling
    Ronaldo

    Subs: Tsimikas and fodder

  15. AllyS
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    On WC Kulusevski and White or Laporte and Gordon?

    1. DennisTheMenace
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Laporte and gordon

  16. panda07
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Which would you prefer for the rest of the season? Foden & Alonso or Saka & Rudiger?

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Saka and Rudi

  17. jackruet
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Worth changing rudiger > alonso (-4)?

    1. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Don't think so

    2. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I'd say it depends who you'd otherwise have coming in for Rudiger (if he doesn't make the 2nd game either)

    3. artvandelay316
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Yes. 25% chance of playing now for Rudi.

  18. RamboRN
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Wc team with bb 36 in mind. What you think?

    Schmeichel foster
    Taa cancelo *** laporte james
    Kdb saka salah havertz kdh
    Pukki *** mateta

    A. Matip and werner
    B. Robbo and dennis

    1. Bruno Commando
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Very similar team to mine, and I'm on A atm.

      Schmeichel Foster
      TAA Matip Cancelo Laporte James
      Salah KDB Kulu Havertz Gordon

  19. Viper
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    I need to find 1.1m to do Raphinha -> Havertz. What looks like the best route?

    A. Son -> Mount

    B. Kane -> Werner

    C. Weghorst -> 4.5m striker

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 5 Years

    2. Boly Would

      Could be a nice little punt!

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Tempted, but Havertz for me.

    4. NorCal Villan
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Nope

  21. MGMT
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    I know its most likely a coin-toss, but would you rather have Mount or Havertz?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Mount long term, Havertz for this dgw

      1. faulksp
        • 14 Years

      4. Warby84

    It feels so good to own Son again! 😀

    Question is do I go Sterling for 1 week over him?

  26. Make United Great Again
    • 11 Years

    Havertz (C) anyone

    1. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years

      Not me but seen loads doing it

  27. Axel5000
    • 9 Years

    What is the plan for those of us sitting here with five chips and five gameweeks left? FH, WC, BB, TC, FH?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Try to sneak into top million?

    2. Hanso Lo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I’m one FH short but will be looking at doing this:

      WC this week
      BB in 36
      FH in 37
      TC in 38 (or if brave, 35).

  28. Boly Would
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Big decision this week.

    Rodrigo (cry) or Pukki (NEW)?

    1. Hanso Lo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Thought I read somewhere that New might rest a few players? I’d try Pukki out in case they do big changes. Palace did wobble but could have been a Cup hangover. Hmmm… I think Pukki.

      1. Boly Would
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Cheers Han, was leaning towards Pukki

  29. alba_geez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Sterling or Son on WC?

    Schmeichel - Foster
    Laporte- Cancelo -James- Robbo- Cash
    Salah - Havertz - Mount - ? - Saka
    Dennis - Nketiah - Mateta

    I have 1.0M ITB and can get TAA instead of Robbo but trying to gain ground.

    Head says Son, heart tells me Sterling....

    1. Hanso Lo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Son would be my choice.

  30. Hanso Lo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Would you have a team with Son, Salah and Kane in it if that meant you had to do the following:

    Replace:

    TAA for Robinson
    Kasper for Guaita
    …and one of Kulu, Foden or Maddison for KDH

    Also…
    You will need to play one of Pukki, Dennis or Veltman/Cedric in your starting line-up.

    Team:
    Guaita, Foster
    Cancelo, Robertson, Matip, Veltman, Cedric
    Son, Saka, Salah, KDH, Mount
    Kane, Pukki, Dennis
