Mark Sutherns is back alongside Andy North for another Premium Members-only chat to kick off Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 9.

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

Mark is recording for our subscribers every Gameweek throughout the upcoming campaign, so sign up via this link in order to see his regular appearances.

This week’s episode focuses on the biggest development of the week in Romelu Lukaku‘s (£11.6m) injury, discussing the best replacements for the Belgian as well as the points potential of Kai Havertz (£8.1m) when neither Lukaku or Timo Werner (£8.6m) are available.

Additionally, the pair talk about the emotional rollercoaster of owning a Chelsea defender, before they both reveal their Gameweek 9 line-ups.

Subscribers can view the embedded video below:

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

        Not a joke question - I really don't want to bench Livra as I fancy a 0-0 or 1-0, but I've literally no-one to bench for...

    Think I'm settled on this WC.
    What do you reckon?
    Raya Foster
    TAA Cancelo Chilwell Duffy Livra
    Salah Foden Raph Mbuemo Normann
    Vardy Antonio Toney
    1.7itb to do Vardy to Kane, or Foden to Son (with a spare FT).
    Or would you just go Kane now?

      Looks good to me. I prefer Kane over Vardy but mostly due to previous experience of owning both! But Vardy in better form so can’t argue with going for him

    Last piece of the WC team:

    1) Raya, Azpi + bench: Livra, Duffy, Davis and 0.9ITB

    2) McCarthy, TAA + bench: Duffy, Manquilo, Davis and 0.0ITB

    3) Raya, TAA + bench: Duffy, 3.9, Davis and 0.0ITB

    Tempted to go 1) as have pretty strong bench, I take advantage of the immediate Chelsea def fixtures while doubling up Azpi + Chilwell, as well as have that 0.9ITB, which will give me flexibility if needed.

    Thoughts?
