Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 7 preview and latest team plans

Friday night finds Mark Sutherns back alongside Andy for another members-only chat to ease us into Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 7. You can find this latest video over on our YouTube channel.

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

Mark is recording – just for subscribers – every week throughout the upcoming campaign, so sign up via this link in order to see them.

This week’s episode begins with Mark stepping aside to allow Andy to enjoy the glory of a huge green arrow from Gameweek 6, as a 69-point return put him inside the top 200k.

From then on, the pair embark on their preview of Saturday and Sunday’s fare as they discuss the recent rash of defensive injuries, the lure of the Wildcard and – once again – the appeal of the Chelsea and Manchester City rearguards.

As usual, they also review their own line-ups, with Andy enjoying a purple patch and the luxury of rolling two transfers over the break, while Mark is rather pessimistically bracing himself for another red arrow.

Subscribers can view the embedded video below:

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

    Which one to keep in WC
    Sarr
    Benrahma

    1. Can’t beat em so&hell…
      • 12 Years

      Sarr

    2. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sanchez
      TAA | Rüdiger | Duffy
      Salah | Raphinha | Sarr | Gray
      Ronaldo | Lukaku | Jiménez

      Steele | B Williams | Livramento | Allan

      0.0. 2FTs. WC Used.

      Should I trade TAA to Cancelo this GW?

      GW7: TAA to Cancelo & Sanchez to Ramsdale
      GW8: Hold
      GW9: Allan to Mbeumo
      GW10: Jimenez to 4.5 & B Williams to TAA

      Thoughts?

        Looks good on paper

        1. Gabbiadini
          • 6 Years

          Cheers.

    3. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years

      B

    4. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Neither honestly. Fixtures are poor (or will be poor). WC for longer term.

  2. Can’t beat em so&hell…
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Who we starting?

    A) white (bha)
    B) Cancelo (liv)

    1. Muscout
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      B

    2. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I almost transferred in White, and would start him vs Brighton without hesitation. Hard to argue against using Cancelo no matter what though. Won't be surprised if Liverpool score though.

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      B but Would play both ideally
      Hard to bench Cancelo with 12 points against Chelsea and Leicester away

  3. steven8991

    1FT here. Will WC next week.
    Sanchez (Steele)
    TAA* Rudiger Christensen Livramento Amartey
    Salah Greenwood Jota* Benrahma Brownhill
    Ronaldo Antonio Toney

    A. Activate WC now
    B. TAA > somebody for one week punt (please suggest)
    C. TAA > Semedo & Jota > Son for -4

    1. Can’t beat em so&hell…
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      B) Alonso

      1. steven8991
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        triple CHE defenders?

          Fair point. Burnley then

  5. OptimusBlack
    • 10 Years

    it worth to get Cancelo for a hit instead of one of those
    A- White BHA (A)
    B- Brandon Williams BUR (A)
    C- Livramento CHE (A)
    If not choose one to play

  6. Zebras
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Before rudiger goes up again, is he worth getting now for a hit (already have Alonso and playing WC in gw8) or play Duffy and pay 0.1 more for him in gw8?

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

      Who's your GK?
      I'd consider holding but may make that trade if it is double Brighton defence.

      1. Zebras
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah got Sánchez in goal already. I figure if I take the hit it’d be 2pts regardless of if I have rudiger or Duffy.

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

      If u r playing wc in gw8, u will not pay 0.1 more for him

  7. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Took a -4 earlier and brought in alonso now he is likely wont start tomorrow should i trigger wc ?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Too late to hit WC now IMO plus IB up next.

    2. Zebras
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Why are people feeling soo strongly that he won’t start?

    3. derdourily
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I still think he will start

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

      No way

  8. Gr3g
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Any chance of Sarr second rise before GW deadline?

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

      I would say unlikely but he does have a triple arrow.

  9. Qui-Gon-Joe
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Got Bamford 7.8 and 0.8 itb = £8.6 . Who would you replace him with? Would you replace him at all given his good fixtures and he might start gw 8?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Antonio

      1. Qui-Gon-Joe
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Got him. Your next choice? Toney? West Ham not keeping cleannies and will have a lovely run from 10

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I would save this week and do Bamford to DCL for GW8 😉

          1. Qui-Gon-Joe
            • 2 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Could do but means I'll b fielding bissouma this week and Bamford might be back then anyway

            1. FOO FIGHTER
              • 4 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Based on what I want to do I guess.

              Current
              Antonio Lukaku Ronaldo
              To
              Antonio Vardy DCL

              Guess Toney is not a bad option for you in that case but then you may as well keep Bamford if he is ready GW8.

              1. Qui-Gon-Joe
                • 2 Years
                2 years, 6 months ago

                Cheers. Like the Vardy pick, can't get to him right now.

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Jimenez

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

    On Wc
    Rudi + ?

    A- Alonso
    B- Azpi

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

      a if you have a good bench i.e. duffy/livramento

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

        I have
        D. Luiz/brownhill/ Livra
        on bench

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

          Livramento has a good stretch of fixtures so I'd possibly do Alonso, however, there could be rotation there.

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

            Cheers, i will pick alonso then.

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      A

  11. Gabbiadini
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Who scores more points over the next two weeks?

    Sanchez - Ars & Nor
    Ramsdale - Bri & Cry

    I can do the trade now, I can also do the trade at the end of GW8.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sanchez

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

      Ram

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

        I also have Duffy, which has me leaning towards doing the transfer now.
        I have 2FTs and Ramsdale looks like he may rise.

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

          Don't double up from brighton thats for sure so do it

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

            Yes.
            My other slight hesitation is that I could've done this transfer 2 weeks ago and hence there is a part of me hoping that Sanchez over the next two weeks makes up the difference I've lost (9 points) from not making the trade.
            However, that difference may only increase should Ramsdale score more.

    3. Zebras
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I think Sánchez. I can see Brighton nicking a goal at Arsenal and really fancy Zaha vs them as well

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

        Interesting. Do you not think Arsenal score against Brighton?
        Also, does the fact I already have Duffy and playing him, change your thought at all?

        1. Zebras
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I’m in the same boat and would still play a Brighton defender vs Arsenal but not double up if I have the bench for it.
          I think Arsenal can de score, I’m just very hopeful that Brighton can frustrate/surprise them

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

            Duffy is in a 3atb, the other options are Livramento + B Williams so it is clearly him needed.

          2. Gunneryank
            • 2 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            I think Arsenal just might flay them open. If I'm wrong I'll come on here and declare it.

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

              my other trade option would be allan to mbeumo this week, which would allow me to bench gray v united.

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

                If i had Gray i would 100% start him vs United. Everton can get at them, even though that Villa game was very bad looking.

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sanchez

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

        Yes, that Norwich fixture...

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

          And this week is Brighton playing at home, however, Arsenal I do believe are the better side despite their poor start.

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

            Sanchez owner and i expect him to concede more than once.

            COYG.

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

              yes, although next week its norwich for sanchez and palace for ramsdale.

  12. Dr Mantis Toboggan
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    One of Williams/Livra looking like my 3rd defender (w/ Alonso & Tierney) this week however I have a FT and 5.6 to spend... any opinions are welcome 🙂

    Options are:
    a) Bring in Laporte a week earlier than planned
    b) Christensen and double up on Chelsea def
    c) Save FT, play Williams/Livra and make def upgrade next GW

  13. Bob B
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    TAA to Rudiger (-4)

    or play Duffy (ARS)

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Duffy

    2. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I'd probably do B.

    3. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Duffman

    4. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Rudi

  14. steven8991
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Jota worth taking out for -4?
    If yes, to who? money is not an issue

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Who is the rest of your midfield bud?

      I’d say Raphinha if you haven’t got him

      1. steven8991
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Salah Greenwood Benrahma Brownhill

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I’d rather take Greenwood out over Jota, but if defo jsit Jota out then yes, for Raphinha I’d say, seems in good form of late

    2. Zebras
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No especially not for a hit

    3. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No not yet.

  15. Mayo.

    Hi all

    Alonso - Shaw - Coufal

    Salah - Sarr - Benrahma - Greenwood

    Antonio - Jimenez - Ronaldo (c)

    White - Veltman - Brownhill

    Tempted with a 1 week punt on Tarkowski but could also go Greenwood to Raphinha before WC in GW8. Thoughts?

    1. Espen8
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Very nice team. Could also save here but I understand the temptation to wildcard in 8

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

        Have gone for Raphinha in for Greenwood - hoping Coufal Shaw and Alonso start but have some backup if they don’t

  16. Salah’s Sonnet
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Who would you captain here guys? Simple A or B situation

    A) Ronaldo

      I used FT getting Alonso and wish I hadn't. Sounds like he's dropped. Everywhere I read Chilwell picked to start. Wish I got Rudiger instead

      1. fricky_

        I mean who knows, hopefully Alonso plays

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Nice team, would be tempted by:

      1) Alonso to Rudiger for nailedness (though less upside)
      2) Benrahma to Saka/ESR (West Ham fixtures not great, Europa league congestion)
      3) Upgrade the 3.9m DEF given the risks of Alonso benching if keeping and Pep fraudulence

    How bad is it to rely on your 2 bench players Duffy and Liv to play this match. Hoping James and Trent gets cleared after IB

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

      Considering Duffman and Livra have returned a few decent scores over the weeks, not the worst situation tbh. They do a job.

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Not bad mate, not the best fixtures but that's what your bench is for.

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Livra got a CS against Man City when we needed him off the bench! Surely can’t happen again? 😉 Duffy has a decent fixture IMO

    4. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      That is why you have your bench.

    Lukaku will go up in price now acc to fplstatistics

      depends on wc's.

    If Lukaku does better with Mount playing it stands to reason that Mount is also a good captain option' right?

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No.

    2. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Hmm not sure about that logic. Mount can help Lukaku score, and he's good at stitching together the transition from defense to attack. That does not mean he is a good FPL captain option. There's a very specific set of reasons why someone can be a good captain.

    Final question,
    Sanchez to Ramsdale (have Duffy playing) or Allan to Mbeumo (allows Gray to be benched this week against United)

    1. Maeki2
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I did rams

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

        Yes, it is that Norwich fixture next week that has me hesitant.
        Price rise I can account for going forward should I look to bring him in.

      2. Gabbiadini
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Not sure he rises either, I think he'd be on a lot of WCs, however, he is at 103.1

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Will Mbeumo score more points than Gray who is facing a fruit loop UTD defence.

      I would rather play Gray.

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

        yes, possibly not. probably would prefer to just play Gray rather than the swapping around.

    Best Burnley defender for a one week punt?

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

      between Mee/Tarkowski, not sure whose numbers have been more goal threatening.

    2. Zebras
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Tark

    3. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I went with Tarkowski.

      Don't really know why but i just trust Tark more,there is noting between them really.

    4. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      You do that and Norwich will score on them. You know it will happen.
