Not got your Mark Sutherns fix this week after his enforced no-show on FPL BlackBox?

Well, you can still catch the Godfather of FPL before Friday’s Gameweek 1 deadline on our live stream this evening.

It all gets underway at 21:15 BST.

The four-time top 1k finisher will be joining Andy North for a chinwag and a team reveal on the eve of the new Fantasy Premier League season. Is he really going to go without Mohamed Salah (£13.0m)…?

Only Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout will be able to watch the video below, so make sure you sign up today to get access to tonight’s stream and exclusive YouTube content from Mark throughout the 2022/23 campaign.

    Struggling with 3 players have originally had

    Foden, benrahma and haaland.

    However, not sure if Haaland is fully fit so want KDB in.

    I can do this by changing foden to KDB and then do I"

    A) just swap Haaland for a 7.5 striker

    B) get a cheap striker for the bench and upgrade Benrahma to a better midfielder (could have up to ,9m if get a 4.5 striker)

      Personal opinion:
      - United don't count as a top team any more.
      - Talismans are sometimes better than top team players.

    Haaland upfront first game
    or Kane?

    GW1 - I have mixed feelings as Kane never performs in August but has done well preseason
    & Conte class Manager getting the best out of him - Tottenham at home to Spurs easier
    I feel than Manchester City away to West Ham United.

    GW 2 transfer Kane out as Tottenham away to Chelsea & Haaland in as Manchester City at home to Bournemouth!

    What do you think?

        That’s the worry.

        Also sucks burning a FT after just one week.

      Unless you plan on keeping Kane for multiple weeks, think he will score at least 4 more points than Haaland as well as Captain him game week one, there’s no point in going with him over Halland. You will be essentially 4 points behind everyone else who already had Halland as they will be banking that transfer.

    Seems like James and Perisic have become the template.

    For now I’m still on Trent+Robbo+Cancelo.

    Cancelo/Rob + Trippier > Dias/James ?

    Is Cancelo a must? He he going to be playing a more advanced midfield/roaming role?
