Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 11 preview and latest team plans

Mark Sutherns and Andy North are back ahead of Gameweek 11 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) after contrasting fortunes last time out.

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.

The FPL BlackBox co-host arrives off the back of a disastrous short-term result from his Wildcard which saw his overall rank double, while Andy sneaked a small green arrow to edge himself up the ladder.

But sporting an early doors Christmas jumper, Mark is in an optimistic mood, particularly with his darling Diogo Jota seemingly set to start Gameweek 11 as a potential differential.

The pair give their views on Spurs’ prospects under new boss Antonio Conte and offer some advice to those wrestling bench dilemmas ahead of Friday’s Gameweek 11 deadline.

      wait on team news, it is that tough. I would start Cancelo though. Can see a Man Utd blank after last week

  3. bruuuno

    Which one?

    B. Raphinha Antonio > Jota Toney (for free)

    1. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 8 Years

      I dissikera both of those options, Cancelo, Raph and Antonio are still long term picks for me

      1. bruuuno
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years

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

      Looks top notch

    Sanchez
    White, livremento, rudiger, semedo, requilon
    Salah, kdb, son, sarr, benrahma

    Anyone give me advice on who to change or make team better

    1. C-Dawgg
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'd say use Sarr and Benrahma to get funds to beef up your team.

      Could get Trent/Cancelo/James/Chillwell instead of white, could beef up Scarlett, could swap 1 for Foden/Jota and downgrade the other.

      1. Thefire78
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Stick with kdb or change to foden/jota for funds?

  9. Fish up a tree
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Kane to Auba?

    If I had Son I would probably keep but Kane is broken so why persist?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Spurs could be golden from GW12 onwards

      1. Fish up a tree
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        You getting Kane in?

        1. Bobby Digital
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Son

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Kane potentially essential in a few GWs time

  10. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Lots of benching headaches around... I'm the opposite, I barely have a bench.

    Foster Amartey Gilmour Ings

    1. maglia rosa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It's certainly an 'easier' way to play.......see below 😆

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

      Don't beat yourself too much on this. This only show that you have a strong 11.

      I would advise slowly shift out amartey and ings, make your team more flexible.

  11. maglia rosa
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I think most would agree that choosing to play Mbeuno over Antonio is a fair 'play the fixture' choice but that we know the risk.
    Would i be particularly pissed if Antonio hauls with what we know (or think) and i bench him? Probably not considering the fixture and the opportunity that exists in picking Mbeumo.
    It does come down to each individual match up though and i'm even playing Gallagher ahead of the West Ham hitman. My sense of foreboding is real 😯

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Seen a lot of people benching Antonio here... Not the end of the world.

  12. Moose™
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Hi all,

    Any thoughts?

    Sanchez

    TAA Cancelo Chilwell

    Salah Havertz Raphinha Mbeumo

    Kane Antonio Edouard

    Foster Livramento White Brownhill

    2FT & 0.4ITB

    1. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I guess you want Edouard as a diff but I would do Ed to Toney for a hit still, I think with Benteke and Ayew in the tactical mix you never know what role Ed will play and how many minutes he will get. Vieira doesn’t seem set on his lineup and attack yet

      1. Hurricane Gilbert
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Oops not for a hit, for a FT I mean, and roll the other

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

      Great team, can't see how you should use your ft. Maybe play around with white > manquillo to free up some cash

    3. maglia rosa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I've looked at Edouard quite a lot over the last day or two. He has more or less started regularly but has been shifted positionally. Can't help but feel i really want him to be an option, possibly because i've been so impressed with the new Eagles under Viera, the team looks a good unit with a clear way of trying to play which is a positive in my mind but fpl wise he feels riskier than Wilson for example. It's a very good team with two free transfers.

  13. Norco
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Which transfer would be best?

    1. Antonio > Toney
    Toney has a nice run of fixtures, on pens. Antonio up against tougher opposition, bought him for 7.5m so have value tied up.

    2. Azpi > James or Chilwell
    Azpi returns of late have hurt. Chilwell and James flying. Chilwell probably more nailed and attacking. Sideways...?

    3. Dias > James or Chilwell
    I already have Cancelo, Dias returns and City in general have been disappointing. Would be going from City DEF double up to a now Chelsea DEF double up with Azpi/James or Chilwell

    1. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I did 2 last week, but 1 and 3 are the same problems I have.

      I am decided not to do 3 as Chelsea fixture don't turn but not as good, but I do have Chilwell and Cancelo, s you may want to do 2 or 3.
      I am thinking about 1 though

    2. dontyouknowimloko
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Defo 2 or 3

      Lots of Toney love but he hasn’t really been doing it, could change but Antonio is a beast.

      Can’t hurt to change Azpi but would think a Chelsea double up is better than a City one… so 3 for me

  14. bso
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Start Livramento or Antonio?

    1. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Tricky question. Personally i wouldn't leave antonio on the bench

      1. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks mate

  15. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    If holding wildcard still, should that sway me to bring in James instead Chilwell this week?

    1. C-Dawgg
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Honestly they're probably both as good and as nailed as each other, do what makes you happy.

  16. Corona is not good 4 U
    • 3 Years

    Is this team good to go?

    Foster, Sánchez

    Vardy, Antonio, Saint-Maximin

    1. Crunchie

      1. Corona is not good 4 U
        • 3 Years

        This

    Bench headaches…

    It makes sense in my head, help me out pls!

    Should I play Duffy over Foden? Anything else look wrong here?

    Rambo
    TAA Cancelo James Tino Duffy

    1. Crunchie

      No. Play Raph and Foden especially

      1. dontyouknowimloko
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Who else to bench then?

    2. Deulofail

      Foden > Mbuemo > Raph > Duffy/Cancelo > Tino

  19. Deulofail
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Currently planning to play:

    Edouard (WOL)
    Jimenez (cpl)
    Raphinha (LEI)

    And bench:

    1. Cancelo (mun)
    2. Grealish (mun)
    3. Livramento (mun)

    What would you change and why pls?

    1. Wolfman180
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Feels like you're going to have a lot of points on your bench but it is hard to recommend a switch. Whonare your other defenders? Wouldn't want to be benching Cancelo

      1. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Trent James Chilwell 🙂

        1. Wolfman180
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          That's one benching headache and a half, I agree I be tempted with BB if you could change your other keeper. Also going Salahless is v brave! Who are you captaining this week?

          1. Deulofail
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            JAMES!

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Headache! Be tempted to BB if you have a playing keeper lol

      1. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I do (Foster), but it seems like a positive tobe able to bench Grealish and Cancelo (who aren't prolific) against United, and Tino when he doesn't have a great fixture. Question for me is more: which is the best of the worst, since those 3 in my XI right now also aren't the tastiest propositions.

        There may be other more obvious SGW BBs on the way, we'll see. Cheers

    3. CROWLEY NOT CRAWLEY
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I have Cancelo and Livra on my bench as well... I am thinking Cancelo before Livra as well.

    4. Deulofail
      • 8 Years

      Oops
      *Livramento (AVL)

  20. Wolfman180
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    A) Havertz & Antonio to Son & Hwang
    B) Havertz & Veltman to Chilwell & Raphinha
    C) Sarr to Smith Rowe

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      C this week. Keep Havertz for this week

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

      I would do C first then next wk do A.

    3. OptimusBlack
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Same thinking here and I think A is better option

    Ramsdale (Foster)
    TAA, Chilwell, Cancelo, (Livra, Dias)
    Salah, Foden, Gallagher, Saka, (Normann)
    Vardy, Antonio, Jiminez

    A. Vardy Plus sets up Son move nicely without a hit. Negaitive hates Leeds (Sheff Wed fan) and cold smash them (but never has smashed anything when i have ever owned him)

    B. Antonio. Plus. Could score against anyone and bought him GW1. Negative. Fixtures are tough and hammies could go COuld buy him back for 0.2m more in a few weeks if he doesn't do well so no biggy.

    C. Jimenez. Plus. Ticks over nicely, with Good recent returns. Negative IB break may rest GW12, Palace is easy, just as difficult as Antonio IMO. Could get him or Hwang back GW13. Thinking of 3-5-2 moving forward.

    1.. Hold
    2. Vardy, Normann, to Broja(Norwich next week) and Son -4
    3. A,B or C to Toney (free)

    1. dontyouknowimloko
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      1 then do 2 next week.

      Any chance of switch A or B in that move? His firm has dropped a bit and had his pen saved tonight but Vardy has decent fixtures after Chelsea.

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I could do Vardy/Normann to Broja/Son -4 this week.

        Or B or C to Toney. I must admit i am leaning Jimenez because of rest after ITB if i do the latter

        1. dontyouknowimloko
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          I have a similar move planned but holding off doing it this week.

          Son rising so if you’ll be priced out maybe go for it.

          I don’t trust Spurs just yet.

    Trapped myself into this situation and knew I would have this type of dilemma. Don't need transfer help, just lineup help.

    Sanchez (NEW)
    TAA (@WHU), Chilwell (BUR), Rudiger (BUR)
    ESR (WAT), Salah (@WHU), Mount (BUR), Foden (@MUN), Bailey (@SOU)
    Jimenez (@CRY), Toney (NOR)

    Steele (NEW), Iheanacho (@LEE), Cancelo (@MUN), Livramento (AVL)

    Do I have this right?

    Captain will be Salah. If you are curious why Bailey is in there - my punt the other week and that he is playing up front OOP with Ings still out. When he has been healthy, has looked great.

    1. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I would start Cancelo over Bailey for sure

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        and Nacho over Jiminez

        1. CROWLEY NOT CRAWLEY
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Thanks, both. I am coming around to Cancelo over Bailey. I watched the UCL game mid week and he looked great.

          Nacho over Jimenez? Why fixtures over form here? I'm a bit concerned about Nacho playing 80+ after playing 90 minutes today.
