Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 12 preview and latest team plans

2,200 Comments

Andy North and Mark Sutherns are back after the internationals, with the latter breaking a recent hiatus from Blackbox to chat Fantasy Premier League (FPL) once again.

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.

With four new manager appointments, a clamour for Spurs attacking assets and the regular flirtation with an alternative to Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) as captain, there’s plenty for Andy and Mark to chew over.

And of course, they dip into their own teams to chat their current thinking ahead of Saturday’s much anticipated deadline.

    With 2FTs and £1.3m ITB, any suggestions on my move for this week?

    Do I just roll the transfer?

    Ramsdale
    James, Alexander-Arnold, Cancelo
    ESR, Raphinha, Salah, Foden
    Vardy, Antonio, Jiménez

    Foster, Livramento, Allan, Duffy

    Thoughts on Vardy and Duffy > Kane and Johnson (WHA) with 2FTs?

      Bring in 1 of Son or Kane is the template move. But not the worst if you decide to roll it

    Salah havertz Raphinha
    Vardy Antonio jimenez

    Sanchez esr allan omobami

    Plan was havertz >jota

    But Lukaku is still injured, werner has lack of match fitness and jota facing arsenal who are decent recently.

    It's an easy save right?

    Brentford have managed to have 63 shots on goal in their last 4 games (Chelsea, Leicester, Burnley, Norwich) despite losing them all…

    Would love to see them put Newcastle to the absolute sword today in front of Staveley & the new owners, a real beheading of a performance, like 5 or 6-0 as Newcastle drunkenly try to play attacking football against them

          They've been generally unlucky dude, not generally "shite"

          Toney alone has had 3 goals disallowed in his last 7 games, before you start counting up how many times Mbuemo has hit the woodwork

          Being on the wrong side of those microscopic margins once or twice is fair enough, but that many times is just a bit of bad luck - there aren't many teams out there who generate 63 shots in 4x premier league games, let alone newly promoted teams

        I think that was the west ham newcastle score on the opening weekend and I had benrahma, Wilson and Antonio. Twas glorious, especially having missed out on the Bruno hatty. Seems a long time ago now. Hoping for a similar goal fest here with Wilson and Toney now in my team.

      Defence is also becoming a bit leaky though. I fancy a 2-2

      3,4,5 assuming you already have Chelsea coverage in defence.

        Yeah currently on him. Sometimes it’s best to look beyond statistics.

      I am in the same boat as you see above. I currently have benched benched rudiger for Toney and raphinha.

      I am playing Jimenez over rudiger and livra though. Would you agree on that?

        I’m always inclined to pick attackers over defenders, so it really came down to Rudiger v Livra for me, since I already have Chelsea cover, and Leicester score in most games, gone for Livra… for now. Chelsea have one clean sheet vs Leicester in about 3 years.
