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.

      Thanks all!
      Bench Ramsey, Holgate and????

  2. Muscout
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Rud to Alonso a good transfer?

    Have James and Havertz

    BB36 FH37

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I guess so, do you have a city defender?

      1. Muscout
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Nope not yet waiting on their double news

    2. StingRay
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I’m really not sure he’ll play...that source is from a Chelsea fan. I think Chelsea’s game and defence is suspect, especially as our boys walloped them. I’d go Laporte, but if you want the double, go for James.

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        I'm likely keeping rudiger.

        He may play the 2nd fame of dgw

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

      Keep Rudiger for the DGW

  3. waltzingmatildas
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Which looks best?
    A) Doherty to Alonso
    B) Doherty to Laporte
    C) Raph to Mount
    D) Broja to Pukki
    E) Martinelli to 6.6

    I'd ideally want Mount but losing Raph who is nailed and on pens (?) doesn't seem sensible?
    Doherty out looks good, but just not sure on Alonso, already have James

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

      B long term I guess

      1. waltzingmatildas
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Yeah probably, especially if city's double goes into 36.
        Just means only one chelsea this week....

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

      I'd do B over Raph move

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

    Martinelli+Adams to Mount+Mateta for -4?

    Mendy**
    TAA Cancelo T.Silva** Telles**
    Salah Saka Martinelli Maddison
    Kane Adams

    Dubravka Gordon White Greenwood

    1ft, 0.9itb

  5. Stranger Mings
    • 3 Years

    Play 1 of a) chabolah b) amartey & c) martnelli ? Thanks

  6. joersherman
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Not a clue how but somehow 9th overall....fully out of my depth and appreciate any advice!

    Current team (0.8 itb, 1 ft, 1 free hit left)

    Dubravka
    TAA Robertson Cancelo
    Salah Son Saka Kulu Barnes
    Weghorst Wood

    Bench: Sa Broja Digne Saiss

    No Chelsea may hurt but I don't have an easy way to access their key options. Thoughts on focusing on a 36/37 transfer instead? That front line is horrible to look at... any thoughts greatly appreciated on next steps

    1. Boz
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Guess you are saving your FH for 36? Target Chelsea this week. Do you have enough for Barnes to Mount?

    2. Not again Shirley
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      You are 9th out of 10 million teams? If so then surely you don’t need any advice.

      Link your team?

    3. Not again Shirley
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Joe Sherman is indeed 9th. Very impressive.

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

      We are in the presence of Royalty

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

    Last bits of WC tinkering. Better duo?
    No Chelsea def thus far.

    A) Laporte & Nketiah
    B) James & J.Rodriguez

    1. Boz
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      B

    2. n14mul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      A for me

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

    Cracked the WC and BB36

    Schmeichel
    TAA Matip Cancelo Laporte James
    Salah Son Mount Havertz(C)
    Pukki

    Foster Nketiah Gordon Gelhardt

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Havertz or Salah Captain, tricky think Liverpool could win 4/6-0

      1. Boz
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        It's more exciting having your captain playing in 2 games rather than 1!

        This logic backfired for Dennis and Weghorst previously though!

    2. Chipmunk
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Nice first 11
      Not to inspired by your bench for BB?

      1. Boz
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Me neither but I don't want too much value tied up there

    3. glufs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Not worried about no Saka?

      1. Boz
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Can't have them all unfortunately. I might bring him in for one of the chelsea lads next week

    4. n14mul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Think it's as good as you can get for BB36.

      I dint like the look of BB36 so did it in 33 :o) worked out well for me

  9. KanuLenoMeeMoCash
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Not much chance of City Double being announced at this time is there?

    1. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Frustratingly, I have a feeling it’ll be announced immediately after deadline tomorrow

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

        yea I think so too
        Whoever makes the final decision has obviously used their wildcard lol

  10. Lionel Fellaini
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Weghorst, Rudi and White to J Rod, Laporte and James?

  11. Kentigern
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    If you only have the choice of one of them, would you go for
    A - Mount
    B - Havertz

    1. Heres hoping x 7
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Mount. I'm considering both.

  12. Heres hoping x 7
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Havertz certain to start over Lukalu?

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Yes

  13. n-doggg
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Best defender for sub 4.3 for the rest of the season?

    1. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Fofana? 2 x DGWs

      1. n-doggg
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Good shout

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

        Is he first choice?

    2. Boz
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Amartey and pocket the 0.3. If possible try and find 0.1 for Davies

    3. Heres hoping x 7
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      None. Put in the cheapest defender on the game and use the funds elsewhere

    4. n14mul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      If you can squeeze our .1 I'd go davis

  14. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Abate people leaving out Maddison on WC? Can bring him in closer to the double double

    1. chudbond007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Yep - he’s not in my WC. Too much rotation risk.

  15. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Anyone keeping rudiger?

    Could be fit for 2nd game of dgw34

    Getting rid means I can only afford Mount....when I'd prefer a hit elsewhere yo get havertz

    Thanks

  16. Fred the Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Thoughts on this WC team? Considering Ronaldo for GW34 before transferring him out, and also considering Nketiah, but all thoughts welcome!

    Schmeichel Foster
    TAA Cancelo James Laporte White
    Mount Salah Jota KDB Elanga
    Pukki Dennis Mateta

    ITB: 0.0

  17. I SPEAK ENGELS AND DRINK GI…
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Last(?) wc draft. Thoughts?

    Schmeichel, Foster
    Robertson, Matip, Cancelo, Laporte, Alonso
    Mount, Havertz, Salah, Son. KDH
    Pukki, Dennis, Watkins

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

      Yup looks good, Saka the only obvious omission

    2. chudbond007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Similar to mine - I’ve gone:
      Schmeichel, Steele
      Robertson, TAA, Cancelo, Laporte, Schar
      Mount, Havertz, Salah, Son, Foden
      Pukki, Greenwood, Geldhart

      Don’t need much on the bench as I’ve used my BB

  18. Salarrivederci
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Gtg?

    Schmeichel
    TAA - Cancelo - James - Schär
    Bruno - Mount - Maddison
    Kane - Werner - Wood

    (Foster, Martinelli, Ramsey, White)

  19. Feed tha Sheep
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Who wins this week and next week only?

    A. Mount
    B. Havertz (

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      B

    2. FPLord
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Consensus is B, but it is basically 50/50

    3. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I think I’m leaning towards A. I’m great form

  20. antis0cial
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Exciting one…

    Nketiah or Rodriguez? Desperate times!

    1. Boz
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      I've fine Nketiah. Positive comments from Arteta today

      1. FPLord
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        N

      2. antis0cial
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 23 days ago

        Thanks, only really need for bb 36 so gotta hope he stays in contention

        1. Scots Gooner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 23 days ago

          Think it’s his spot to lose and Laca in current form isn’t much competition

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

    Bench boost here?

    Sa
    Robertson, Cancelo, Matip
    Salah, Son, Mount, Maddison, Kulu
    Wood, Rodrigo

    Sanchez, Jonny, Reguillon, Mateta -4 .2itb

  22. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    so,
    pick one:

    A wood (nor) to werner -4
    B wehhorst (WOL) to werner -4
    C not worth a hit

    1. Heres hoping x 7
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      C

    2. Super John McGinn-
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      C

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

      All depends on future transfer plans, just seeing thisI would do A

  23. FPLord
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Decided to go for a -8 instead of play my second FH as I will relay my injury and rotoation problems.

    Ramsdale (Sa)
    TAA Robertson Cancelo James (Digne)
    Salah Saka Kulu Martinelli Fraser
    Kane (Weghorst Broja) 0.0 1FT

    Better move?
    A. Fraser, Martinelli, Kane > Mount, Havertz, Watkins (-8)
    B. Fraser, Kulu, Kane > Mount, Havertz, Nketiah (-8) for more flexibility

  24. Super John McGinn-
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Time to wildcard or wait another week?
    Got wildcard, bench boost and free hit left

    Ramsdale
    Cancelo, Rudiger, Targett
    Salah, Son, Maddison, Saka, Martinelli
    Kane, Weghorst

    Foster, Livramento, Roberts, Dennis

    0.3 ITB 1 FT

    A) Son + Roberts > Havertz + James (-4)
    B) Kane + Roberts > Werner + James (-4)
    C) Rudiger + Maddison > Alonso + Havertz (-4)
    D) Wildcard

    1. FPLord
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      A and WC next week

  25. Better Call Raul
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    A. Maddison + Weghorst -> Havertz + Pukki (-4)
    B. Kulu + Weghorst -> Havertz + 4.5 (-4 and start Schar)

    Ramsdale
    TAA-Robbo-James
    Salah-Maddison-Saka-Kulu-KDH
    Kane-Weghorst

    Sanchez----Schar-White-Broja

    1. Super John McGinn-
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      A

  26. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Bit of a sensitive subject but do we expect Ronaldo to play?

    Also what do you expect if he does play? I can’t work out whether it’s worth a punt on WC.

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

    Rudiger Barnes Weghorst >> James Mount 4.5

    Good moves ?

    1. Super John McGinn-
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Yeah

  28. Kun Tozser
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    Choose 2 for -4

    Havertz
    Jota
    Mount
    Foden

    Replacing Fernandes and Martinelli

    1. Super John McGinn-
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Havertz and Mount

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Mahrez probably worth a mention too

  29. Ci Siamo
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    My transfer plan has basically come down to....

    a) Son now until the end

    b) Cancelo now until the end

    I already own Kane

  30. mdm
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 23 days ago

    On FH:

    A. Mateta (LEE)
    B. Pukki (NEW)

    1. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      Flip a coin on this but out of the two, B obviously more nailed

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 23 days ago

      A
