Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 12 preview and latest team plans

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.

Subscribers can view the embedded video below:

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

        Cheers guys.

        My thoughts entirely.

        I should trade up for Son!

    0.4m ITB - 0 FT left as I did Sarr to Gallagher early.

    Any hits required??

  4. THEKID_88
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    What's the consensus on Livra v Rudiger? Already have James

    1. Mufc202020
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Livra

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'm starting Chilwell, TAA and Livra with Rudiger on the bench

      1. THEKID_88
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers

    3. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Livra has better fixture and more attacking threat. id definitely start him due to bigger upside

    4. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Play Livra, no need to double up this gw

  5. Solanke
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Is this bench order correct?

    ESR | Duffy | Broja

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Si

    2. Peteski29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yep

  6. HurriKane
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Can we really trust Vardy despite the decent fixtures? Especially at the expense of a Kane or Son

    Leciester side looks very unsettled at the moment

    Tielemens their best midfeilder out for 3-4 weeks. Maddison and Barnes out of form all season.

    Ndidi has been injured all season and just returned recently so will take some time to get up to speed

    Their fullbacks has been underwhelming

    Likes of Nacho Daka Lookman has all been in and out of the team

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Sold him for Kane last night. Bought 3gw ago and only blanks, classic case of beeing late to the party

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      It's Vardy though.

      He will punish you when you have him and he'll punish you when you don't.

    3. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Probably give him next 2 home games to see if things change and he is well rested. Also time to watch Spurs with a move to Kane in gw14 as backup

  7. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Sa’ + Mount > Lloris + Jota/Bernardo for Free

    Then next gameweek, Ronaldo > Kane

    Yes or No?

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Good plan but you'd want ronaldo by gw15-16 anyway

  8. vova
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Play Steele or Ramsdale?

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ramsdale

      1. Junks
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        This

    2. Peteski29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ramsdale

  9. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo James Chilwell
    Salah Son Foden Raphinha Mbeumo
    Antonio

    Foster Jimenez Livramento Davis

    Is this lineup good to go please?

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Start Livra over Raphinha

    2. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      West Ham defense is not great and Jimenez on pens, not sure I would bench

    Gtg?

    Im having bench dilemmas!

    Foster
    taa cancelo chilwell james livra
    salah(c) havertz jota
    Antonio ASM

    Ramsdale Tony Raph Benrahma

    Switch any?

    1. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'd personally play Toney over Livra but it's close.

      Norwich under a new manager and off the back of a win, I think they'll score.

    2. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      BB?

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, that looks like a good bench boost.

        1. Raf
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          usually save this for double gameweeks. another dilemma! lol

  14. CONNERS
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Morning

    Who do you think is the "best" of the 4.5 bench fodder mids?

    Normann perhaps?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Brownhill at 4.4

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I'd prefer Normann.

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks Holmes.

      Does Normann not appeal assuming he'll likely keep his 'playmaker' role in the Norwich side?

  15. phoenixfromtheflames
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Play A) Rudiger or B) Edouard?

    1. Junks
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B.... I go with the forward

    2. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B

      1. phoenixfromtheflames

        Thanks guys

  16. Arteta

    Question exclusively for my fellow Arsenal fans - will you captain Salah?

    1. RWB_1991
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No I couldn’t do it

    2. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      yes

  17. Junks
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    After weeks of pain with Azpi since I brought him in on my WC do I keep him or sell him now?

    1. phoenixfromtheflames
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Do you have James or Chillwell? If not I’d switch Azpi to one of them

      1. Junks
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        No I don’t... I was thinking to switch to Cancelo as no city but then that leave a message with no Chelsea

  18. Hiiler
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Any thoughts on my WC team? Is my bench selection good for GW12 or would you change bench players?

    2. phoenixfromtheflames
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      If you don’t have too much tied up in Antonio, or the funds to compensate, I’d consider Wilson for the next 4 and Antonio back in for gw 16

      1. Hiiler
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Was thinking of holding him, but this idea of yours is doable it seems.:)

  19. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Am I Good to go this morning?

    Steele
    TAA - Cancelo - Chilwell - Livra
    Salah (c) - Son - Jota
    Antonio - Toney - Jesus (vc)

    Sanchez - Rudiger - ESR - Sissoko

    1. phoenixfromtheflames

      Gtg!

  20. RWB_1991

    Any leaks on Man U lineup?

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Lingard and Phil Jones up front as Ole looks to ring the changes!

    2. yousunkmybattleship
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes it won’t be good enough

  21. RWB_1991
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Greenwood starting today?

    1. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      50/50 according to what I've read on here from those in the know. (so to speak).

      1. RWB_1991

    Does having Salah cap make a difference to picking Foster over Ramsdale?

    1. rainy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No difference. Battle of the save points for those two this week anyway

  24. Footieboot
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Vardy + Marcal --> James + Wilson for free worth it?

    1. Assisting the assister
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yep

    2. phoenixfromtheflames
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yes

  25. ididnt
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Mbuemo > Gallagher for free?

    1. Mufc202020
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Could hurt you

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Maybe wait a week for that move?

      On paper it's a good matchup for Brentford and Eddie Howe teams aren't known for their defensive prowess, so Bees could score a few today (as could Toon, too).

    3. phoenixfromtheflames
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wait a week

  26. yousunkmybattleship
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Let’s go Vardy!!

  27. Big W
    • 5 Years

    Would you WC this team? 0FT 1.4 ITB

    Foster | Sanchez

    TAA | Chilwell | TAA | Cancelo | Livra

    ESR | Gallagher | Raph | Salah | Benny

    Vardy | Toney | Antonio

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Nah, how many changes would you make?

      1. Big W
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Need to get one of Son/Jota/Foden/Kane and get rid of Vardy some how

    2. phoenixfromtheflames
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Nope, only a couple of changes needed

  28. baines is god
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    jimenez 50/50 to start?

  29. Mozumbus
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Would Mane start?

    1. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes. Klopp said he's fine

      1. Mozumbus
        • 2 Years

        Thanks

    2. RWB_1991

      Yes

  30. ctulhu
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    I'm upgrading Duffy to Cancelo.

    Should I fund him with:

    A) Vardy --> Benteke
    B Vardy --> Wilson

    for -4?

    1. baines is god
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B

    2. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B for next 4 GW. I actually like A also though

    3. ctulhu
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks guys. I'm also leaning towards B but kind of like A as well. I guess B it is for the next 5 GWs or so.

      Might do Toney --> Benteke later if the latter begins to show consistent minutes and returns.

    4. phoenixfromtheflames
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B
