Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 6 preview and latest team plans

Mark Sutherns makes his usual Friday night return alongside Andy on the eve of Gameweek 6 to reveal his latest thoughts and Fantasy Premier League (FPL) line-up over on our YouTube channel.

This video is an exclusive for Premium Members – and there’ll be plenty more to come in 2021/22.

Mark will be filming one video just for subscribers every week throughout the upcoming campaign, so sign up via this link in order to see them.

This week we find Mark preparing for an afternoon of anguish as he goes in without Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.7m) and with no less than three Chelsea players as they take on Man City.

Andy, meanwhile, is feeling far more confident about the Gameweek, off the back of a green arrow and with a certain Watford winger newly installed in his line-up ahead a visit from an injury-strewn Newcastle United.

Find out their thoughts on the captaincy debate, going big at the back and watch out for an appearance from a certain Wizard towards the end, forcing Mark to fumble for the mute button.

Subscribers can view the embedded video below:

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Well Bamford is known! Worst case you could end up with only 10 out, but I think that's unlikely.
      Given you already have 2 Chelsea (and presumably you know the third next week) I think you can afford to switch this week. I'd shift Greenwood or Torres to someone more fun like Sarr or go safer with Jota.

    Had a night out in Dublin last night, my first trip over to Ireland in a couple of years. Got over-excited and played my wildcard at some point in the evening.

      Guinness will do that

      I knee-jerked my wildcard last week - total disaster. Couldn't even blame the booze!

      1. grumpyman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Regret nothing!

    4. grumpyman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Think I’ll have to go for the GW8 team, with a decent bench of players that have decent fixtures the next two weeks. Looks OK tbh.

      1. grumpyman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Sanchez
        TAA Livra Alonso
        Salah Benny Gallagher Sarr
        Armstrong Ronaldo Antonio
        (Steele Rudiger Cancelo McArthur)

        1. grumpyman
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          1.8 in the bank to buy some optionality down the road.

    5. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I blew mine a few weeks and it was most certainly the booze. Cant complain though am doing alright.

      1. grumpyman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah, sometimes better to get it done before the team goes stale.

    6. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Is that a euphemism?

  4. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Do we think Podence will get a start vs Wolves?

    Any other MF that you fancy upto 5.5? (e.g Elyoxxxx from Saints, Fraser, Almiron)

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Townsend?

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Good call, looking for a way to bench Bamford and use 1.0 itb, so thinking of upgrading the 5th mid (Gilmour) who will then be rotating with the other 3 mids over the season (ben, Raf, Sarr)

        Have heard good things about Elyoxxx lately 🙂 is he a better option long term than Townsend?

  5. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Torres > Sarr worth a hit over the next 2 GWs?

    1. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No..

  6. Lingard’s Shin Guards
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Bam -> ASM then gtg?

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Livra
    Salah Jota Raph Sarr
    CR7 (c) Antonio ASM

    Steele Dier Coady McArthur

    1. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Any cash left?
      I'm not massively keen on Pereira - you're already banking on Leicester with Vardy. Not especially up on Townsend either (if you do want Everton Gray is better).
      The big question though, is what are you doing about Chelsea? Big fixture swing for a team that already looks great next week - don't you want a Chelsea defender in the mix?

      1. Calum Undisputed
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        no money left.
        crazy as it sounds i planning shaw n ronaldo to chelsea def n lkk

  9. Powers106

    Tricky one imo, sit one:
    a) Alonso
    b) Duffy
    c) Gray
    d) Jimi

    Sa
    TAA Shaw Duffy (Alonso Marcal)
    Salah Benrahma Torres Gray (Bissouma)
    CR7 Antonio Jimi

  10. the dom 1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Quick captain armband check?

    I’m currently on Ronaldo but tempted to go Salah.

    Who is everyone going on?

    1. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      ron

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ronaldo, captaincy was the only reason to bring him this week.

    3. Powers106
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Same, keep changing back and forth. Seems I had committed to Salah every GW for this year unless injured but CR7 is a wrench in the works!

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yep agree lol

    4. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I'm wavering like most. I think it's a coin toss tbh. I'm probably going Salah though.

    5. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      One doesnt own a 12.7mln forward and not captain him.

    6. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I think anyone who owns Ronaldo and doesn’t captian him is crazy tbh. That being said I am captaining Salah

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        crazy fella

    7. JayQue
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I’m 80% sure I’ll go for Antonio. Have Ronnie, Lukaku and Salah as well but I think Leeds are setup for a whipping. That injury list is too hard to ignore. No defence or attack. Will prob backfire but it keeps things interesting for me. Good luck everyone!

  11. john25
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Repost.

    Have 9.8m for a def+mid on WC. Considering these two options.

    A) Duffy + Gallagher
    or
    B) White + Townsend

    What do you guys think? Any other options?

    Cheers

    1. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I don't really like Townsend (and I'm an Everton fan), so I'd go A).

  12. Over Midwicket
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Play Semedo or Livramento?

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      liv

    2. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Why not both?

  13. Dirty Harry
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Start Sanchez or Foster?

    1. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I started Foster just in case he starts

    2. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Clean sheet odds slightly better for Brighton but either could work on the day

    3. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Not much between them

  14. Podorsky
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Keep Bamford, play Jimenez and save transfer or bring in Antonio for Bamford and bench Jimenez on free transfer? Jimenez does not look in form and Antonio is a monster. Decisions decisions!

    1. frenchfries
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Would not bench Jimenez, surely there is someone else you could bench?

      Would bring in Antonio tho

      1. Podorsky
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Not really, Salah, Gray, Gallagher, Jota, Sarr and CR7

    2. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Get Antonio and get rid of Jimenez next GW. IMO

      1. Podorsky
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yup, Watkins for Jimenez next week. I believe that if he stays fit, Antonio can match Lukaku over the season.

    3. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Bring in Antonio, but I wouldn’t bench Jimi personally

  15. frenchfries
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Why is this so hard???

    For the next 5 games
    Bamford ->
    A) Armstrong
    B) Jimenez
    C) ASM

    1. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Armstrong

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I’m going Armstrong (if I make the move).
      Where would you spend the extra cash? City defender for me in gw8

      1. frenchfries
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Did some moves getting in Cancelo, Rudiger and Havertz for Shaw Semedo and Jota. Still 1 itb after that, and after Ronaldo to Lukaku that would make it 2itb.
        But Chelsea and City defender is first priority

        1. frenchfries
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Have not made the moves, but played around with the funds if i would get armstrong

    3. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Probably still Bamford out of those.
      unless he is injured more long term of course

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Which we won’t know before deadline…

      2. frenchfries
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Dont like my bench options and dont know how long he is out. So im making the switch and could get him back later

    4. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Lukaku 🙂

      1. frenchfries
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Give me the funds and that would be the perfect move

  16. Drumandbaines123
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Sorting out my Norwich bench order...who should be first in case they need to come on?

    A. Attacker - Rashica (75% chance of playing)
    B. Defender - B Williams

  17. focaccia
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Thoughts on what to do here? Was tempted to WC but think I'll hold off for now.

    Bachmann
    Shaw - Coufal - Cancelo - Veltman
    Greenwood - Jota - Salah - Grealish - Sarr
    Antonio

    Martinez - Toney - Tsimikas - Bamford

  18. George Agdgdgwngo
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Who to drop out of

    A. Rudi
    B. James
    C. Cancelo
    D. Livra

    1. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      James probably wont start anyway, do there is a risk of a cameo there. Otherwise Livra

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Brave to bench any city che defender. Law or averages say they return the most so unless you have crystal ball it’s worth playing all. Unless you’re convinced city will concede

  19. jai1212
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    For the next 2 GWs, who do I take?

    A. Barnes
    B. Zaha

      Both high ceiling

    Cap choice between Antonio & Salah?

    1. yeahbuddy
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Antonio for me

  27. Sᴄʜᴜ̈RRʟᴇ ⓝ

    2 years, 6 months ago

    Ayling > Liv?

  28. thegaffer82
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    I want to sell Torres - but he may play.
    I don’t want to sell Raph - but he may not play

    Dilemma!

    1. Thanos
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sold Torres. Too much risk of rotation or getting subbed off. Plus, he has two toughest fixtures of the season.

    2. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      The big problem with players like Torres. Hard to get rid of.

    3. Tasty Jerk
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Its tough - I have Torres as well, but I have 2 FT and looking at downgrading to either Sarr or Gallagher

  29. b91jh
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Start Duffy or Semedo?

    1. Thanos

  30. Thanos
