Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 1 preview and team reveal: No Salah?

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.

      Yes

    who is the best arsenal defender to own?

    1. Tmel
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Ramsdale

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Gabriel or zinchenko

    3. thebizzle
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Gabriel nailed. Others a bit risky, Tierney inj prone

    4. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Zinchenkooooooooooooooooo

    5. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Gabriel or Ramsdale

    6. balint84
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      White

    7. il Brutto
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Gabriel and quite clearly imo

      1. Meme2011
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Looks like Gabriel it is cheers guys

    8. World XI
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I've gone with White. Had a good first season. Set Arsenal back £50 million let's not forget. Will play RB first couple games, then at CB alongside on of the others imo

      1. World XI
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Also he rolls in BAPS

  3. Bubbles1985
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Current squad, how's it looking:

    Sanchez
    TAA Cancelo(vc) Cash
    Salah(c) Son Andreas Bailey KDH
    Haaland Jesus

    Gazz Lamptey Greenwod N.Williams

    1. il Brutto
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Seems a bit light in mid with Andreas, Bailey and KDH all as starters. Also Lamptey hasn't been playing a lot this pre-season and is unlikely to start on GW1.

  4. thebizzle

    Hi, any suggestions on improving? Feel quite settled with this now

    Ward (Ramsdale)

    Trent (vc) Robbo Cancelo Perisic James
    Salah (c) Bailey Martinelli (Neto, Andreas)
    Jesus Haaland (Dervisoglu)

    1. Taff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Too light in midfield for me

      1. thebizzle
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        That was my thinking. But all 5 of my defenders could be considered wingers was my feeling

        1. Taff
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          Don’t disagree with that but Bailey is not a guaranteed starter post GW1 so you could be looking at a rapid midfield rejig.

  5. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    1) James & Neto
    2) Trippier & Rashford
    3) Doherty & Rashford

    1. thebizzle
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I’ve got number 1

    2. Sad Pablo Arsecobar
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Trippier and martinelli

      1. Tmel
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Already got Mart

    3. iL PiStOlErO

      2

  6. CRO KLOPP
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    0.0 itb

    Sanchez
    TAA Robertson Cancelo James
    Salah Saka Martinelli Bailey
    Kane Bamford
    (4.0 4.5 4.5 4.0)

  7. LarsV

    Ward (Sanchez)
    TAA - James - Walker - Dalot (Neco)
    Salah - Son - Martinelli - Bailey (Andreas)
    Haaland - Jesus (Greenwood)

    Thoughts? Changes?

  8. WhilePaquetàGentlyWe…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Cash or Digne or Walker?

    1. Thanos
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Walker. Looks set to start and plays for the best defence.

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Walker

  9. marcus2704
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    I prefer Saka to Martinelli, but that said would you switch him to Martinelli and upgrade Walker to Cancelo?

    Mendy
    TAA | Robertson | James | Trippier | Walker
    Salah (C) | Saka | Rashford
    Kane | Jesus

    1. Sad Pablo Arsecobar
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Martinelli and cancelo is clear

      1. marcus2704
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Thanks, a little reluctant to lose Saka but I think you are probably right that Cancelo/Martinelli is the way to go.

    2. il Brutto
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I'd go with Cancelo and Martinelli

  10. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Real FPL possibility after GW 1

    Kane scores well. 🙂

    Haaland blanks or gets taken
    off after City get a big lead. 🙁

    With huge ownership, Haaland to drop in price and be available at 11.4m for Kane ➡ Haaland punters.

    Another reason to start with Kane given the short term nature of the season. 😉

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Another FPL possibility is Haaland bangs in a hatty on his debut while Kane blanks. Another reason to start with Haaland, eh?

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Rare chance

        Whereas Kane banging one in is more of a possibility

        City are still figuring out how to play with Haaland

    2. Tev
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      There's just no way Haaland drops in price before Bou (h) unless he gets injured mate. No way.

      1. Tev
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        And I say this as someone with Kane!

    3. yousunkmybattleship
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      No one will sell Haaland before BOU

      1. marcus2704
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Pep will probably play Alvarez for that one.

  11. Edge
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    All these big questions, but I just want to know.. which cheap striker should warm my bench?

    A) Greenwood
    B) Archer

    1. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Lowest owned

  12. Thanos
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    1. KDB + Cash/Digne/ up to 5M def

    2. Sterling + Robbo

    1. balint84
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      2

    2. FISSH
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      1 with trippier

  13. Stranger Mings
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    A) Doherty or b) zinchenko

  14. balint84
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    From AV
    Cash or Bailey?

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      B

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years

      Cash

    3. antis0cial

      B

  16. thebizzle
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Am I going too heavy on defence?

    Feel like I’ve gone 5 attacking full backs, and then 5 attackers

    Ward (Ramsdale)

    Trent (vc) Robbo Cancelo Perisic James

    Salah (c) Bailey Martinelli (Neto, Andreas)

    Jesus Haaland (Dervisoglu)

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Neto money wasted on the bench

      1. thebizzle
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Not sure where I could use the extra million though. He might come on gameweek 2, home to Fulham

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Probably can't go too heavy in defence.

      Can easily go too light in midfield tho.

  17. WVA
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Rashford over Martinelli?

    Ederson
    TAA Robbo Cancelo James Perisic
    Salah Rashford Bailey
    Haaland Jesus

    1. Eisjh
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I'm keeping Martinelli for the upcoming fixtures over rashy

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Rashy is a bit more fun/punty though!

  18. cruzex
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Good to go?

    RMT(0-10)

    Ramsdale
    TAA James Perisic Digne
    Salah(c) Rashford Martinelli Diaz
    Kane Jesus

    Bench: Ward Walker andreas greenwood

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Love that midfield, hate Digne

      1. cruzex
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        why hate digne?

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          Have you ever owned him before? It doesn't end well.

    2. LarsV
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Why bench walker?

  19. jay01
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Martinelli or Neto? Price doesnt matter

    1. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Martinelli

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      M

    3. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      M

      Neto recipe for disaster

  20. il Brutto
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Think I'm pretty close to being ready, but still have trouble with the following decision. Any thoughts much appreciated.

    a) Vardy and Sterling
    b) Kane and Luis Diaz

    Own thoughts are that option B seems the safer to start with but for whatever reason the temptation of option A is proving hard to resist.

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      B

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      B all day

    3. LarsV
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 8 months ago

      B without a dooubt

  21. FallingDuck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    0.5 itb. Any changes needed?

    Raya Ward
    TAA Cancelo Robbo Trippier N.Williams
    Salah Mount Martinelli Bailey Andreas
    Kane Jesus Archer

    A) upgrade Raya?
    B) upgrade N.williams?
    C) save the 0.5?

    1. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      C

  22. PKnox11
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Anyone else toying with the idea of going without Cancelo? If im gonna remove big funds out of defence, Im looking at Cancelo.

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Yes going Walker

      1. PKnox11
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Yup, I like him or Dias.

  23. Clintymints
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Time to make the first draft, who's got the goods?

    1. You've got red on you.

      Ward
      TAA - Robertson - Perisic - James - Cancelo

      Kane - Jesus

      Iversen - Bailey - Andreas - Greenwood/Archer

  24. antis0cial
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    A) James Saka Neto
    B) Perisic Mount Martinelli
    C) James Mount Martinelli (with Leicester keepers rather than Sanchez)

    1. Dynamic Duos

      1 year, 8 months ago

      C

  25. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Anyone going Coutinho ?

    1. N00B
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      No. Bailey is better + 2.0M.

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      No going Bailey instead

      1. DonaldDrapier
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Ok but why not pick both? Isn't Coutinho a 200+ point player and the fixtures are great.

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          Yeh although prefer martnelli to countinho

  26. N00B
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    This is hard:

    A) James - Perisic (5-3-2)

    or

    B) Foden - Bailey (3-5-2)

    Ramsdale

  27. Rbyrne95

    A) Robertson and Bailey?
    B) Walker and Diaz?

    1. N00B
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      a

    2. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      A

    3. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Tough one. B more nailed.

  28. Zoostation
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Dalot over Williams to save the 0.5.

    Neither figure in starting lineup.

  29. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    My City mate has put me off Cancelo, so Robbo in new draft, thoughts?

    Ward
    TAA Robbo Dias Trippier
    Salah Mount Coutinho Martinelli
    Kane Jesus

    Iversen Neco Andreas Plange

    1. Eisjh
      • 1 Year

      Could probably fit in a better option than Coutinho
