With Fantasy Premier League (FPL) set to awake from its slumber on Boxing Day, Mark Sutherns and Andy North deliver an early Christmas present for Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout.

The pair will be chatting on our YouTube channel about their own teams and how they’re using their unlimited transfers. Can either avoid toeing the template line?

Mark and Andy are live from 19:45 GMT, with the stream watchable via the embedded video below.

And if you’ve missed the start or indeed the whole of the live broadcast, you can of course still watch the stream back from the start in its entirety.

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 not just this stream but also exclusive YouTube content from Mark throughout the 2022/23 campaign.

    How is this team looking?
    Pope, Ward
    James, Trippier, Cancelo, Gabriel, Neco
    Foden, Martinelli, Almiron, Rashford, Andreas
    Kane, Haaland, Darwin

    Will probably look to get in Mitro and Mount for the DGWs

      Slight benching issue here and I find it amusing that the player I would most likely bench is James.

    How would you complete this? Trying to get some differentials in there:

    A: Robbo + Rashford
    B: James + Foden
    C: James + Kulu

    Pope | Ward
    Cancelo | Tripps | Doherty | Neco | *
    Salah | Martinelli | Almiron | Andreas | *
    Haaland | Darwin | Nketiah

    Thanks!

      Not for me, Liverpool defence hasn't been the same this season and the fixtures are tough from a defensive perspective. Villa are a different force under Emery, I'd always fancy Leicester to score, then Brentford are strong at home/have been strong against top opposition this season. Brighton & Chelsea don't get any easier.

          but you don't bring in Robinson for the defensive. You bring him in for potential attacking returns. If you wanted a Liverpool defender you go for Gomez or Matip - if you only want the defensive returns

      I'll just have to bet against him, and hope his purple patch is over.

      Hopefully the returns of Isak and ASM will mess with Almiron's playing time.

          Yes, but going for Martial right now gives you time to see if Mitro gets that 5th yellow before the double. Mitro isn't fully fit either.

      I think it's very close, but Trossard just shades it. He'll be playing upfront for another two to three weeks at least and will have a double (or triple) gameweek in gw21. Zaha has also had a good season though and is on penalties, so both are good options.

      Walker is first choice, but carries a rotation risk. If you really want James, I think you can afford to downgrade Shaw personally. Otherwise, can you stretch to Walker > Gabriel?
