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.

    2 Questions
    1) Get James or Chilwell?
    2) Vardy, Sarr > Son, Edouard ?

    Would you WC this team? 0FT 1.4 ITB

    Foster | Sanchez

    TAA | Chilwell | TAA | Cancelo | Livra

    ESR | Gallagher | Raph | Salah | Benny

    Vardy | Toney | Antonio

      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Nah.

    2. Kellz86
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Will you keep the TAA brothers if you WC?

  3. Il Capitano
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    2FT 0ITB

    Foster
    TAA Cancelo Chilwell Livramento
    Salah Son Raph
    Vardy Antonio Toney

    Sanchez - Mbeumo Brownhill White

    Worth selling Vardy for Wilson even with Vardy's fixture run after Chelsea? It would raise funds for Mbeumo > Jota next week.

    1. Il Capitano
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Would do something like Sanchez > Guaita with the FT this week if I keep Vardy (can't think of anything else).

    2. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I've gone Vardy to Wilson to fund the Jota move next week.

      1. Il Capitano
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Does make sense to fund the Jota move, can't shake the feeling of imminent punishment from Vardz though

        1. Balls of Steel
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Ya Vardy will probably score given the fact I've owned him for past 3 or 4 weeks and he's got no returns...just feel Howe will ignite Newcastle and Wilson could be great with a few nice upcoming fixtures.

  4. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Who will punish sellers?
    A. Vardy
    B. Toney
    C. Mbeumo

    I do not accept neither as an answer

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Oh I forgot

      D. Sarr

      1. Tasty Jerk
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        haha - Im looking at selling Sarr, so everyone should get him now 😀

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Just how fpl works 🙂

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

        Sarr is about to have some fun, with the state of Man U's defensive phase

        Memories of what he did to us still linger, as a Pool fan

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Sarr explosion incoming

            • 12 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            An incoming explosion sounds more like an implosion...

    2. winchester

      Vardy party

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

      A

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      btw, if your answer is neither, then you're probably still new to the FPL world

    5. Angelic upstart
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Toney

    6. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A because I sold him for Wilson!

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        You're making it inevitable!

        1. Balls of Steel
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          I think both Vardy and Wilson will score this week..

    7. HTL
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Two points each

    8. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years

        1. Il Capitano
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Benchable this week, I prefer all of your starters over him

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

    Foster / Toney / Saka / Duffy

    Worth a Bench Boost?

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

      Yes.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn't

      I expect at least 18 points if I BB.

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

        Last time would have given me 20 points but Foster was unusual.

        Not sure how expecting 20 points makes a difference tbf.

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

          Or 18.

          1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
            • 12 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            i wouldnt put a figure on it but there must be a level at which youre happy with playing it rather than a 'waste'
            5pts per bench player (20) would be incredible but dont know if thats realistic, same as 2pts per player (8) would be disappointing, so the bar has to be somewhere between those 2

            1. NABIL - FPL otai
              • 11 Years
              2 years, 4 months ago

              You sounded like Simon March. Not a bad thing though

        2. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Saka vs liv at anfield
          Duffy vs inspired villa

          Don't think it'll be fruitful sorry

    3. Angelic upstart
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Not for me

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

      Thanks all very helpful

    5. chriscosta
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      no

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

    Which option? Want to get Cancelo in

    A) Duffy & Havertz > Cancelo & Gallagher
    B) Duffy, Havertz & Toney > Cancelo, Jota & Hwang
    C) Duffy & Vardy > Cancelo & Wilson

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

      I'm in exact same situation as you, considering C.

      Do you think Vardy --> Benteke is a wise move so save money somewhere?

      1. Redranger
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Personally I don’t think Benteke is the best choice, but with how my season is going; who the hell knows.

    2. Angelic upstart
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B or C depending on your transfers

      1. Redranger
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        B would be a -4

  8. Mufc202020

  9. FCSB

    Play one:

    1. Mbeumo (new)
    2. Jimenez (WHU) [may be rested / benched]
    3. Livramento (nor) [would be 5 at the back]

    Thanks.

    Morning

    Think I'm going mad slightly......can someone help?

    I'm currently starting broja over vardy??

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Broja not guaranteed to start whereas Vardy is and at home. Norwich could put up a battle being their first game under Smith.

      1. n14mul
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        This is my concern

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

    Ramsdale
    Livra James Dias Cancelo (C)
    Havertz Gallagher Salah
    Ant Vardy Toney

    Ward Raph Rud Sissoku

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

    Any hits required & bench in the right order?

  16. Mozumbus

  17. matiakez
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Azpi and Vardy to Reguillon and Kane for-4 or is that going to soon on Spurs?

    Can't afford just the Kane one.

    1. Sid07
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Will not do for a hit
      If you have decent bench for azpi

  18. Oldie99
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Start Livra or Mitchell? Seems really close but probably Livra?

    1. Sid07
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Livra

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

      Liv

    3. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Livra

  19. Sid07
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Suggestions?

    Ramsdale (Foster)
    TAA Cancelo James (Livramento white)
    Salah Foden Raphinha Mbuemo (Brownhill)
    Vardy Antonio Jimi
    2ft 1.0M in bank

    1. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I would play foster no? 🙂

    2. Angelic upstart
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Antonio for wilson

  20. NotsoSpursy
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Seen a lot of teams in here this week playing Ramsdale over Foster.

    I originally had Foster first choice. Should I go with my gut or the majority??

    1. Sid07
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I believe you should go with guy, no nailed option here

    2. Angelic upstart
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Go with gut

  21. gawa11
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Are the below moves ok or wait another week?
    Out - raph & Antonio
    IN - jota & Wilson

    1. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Tricky as all could be scoring points this week. Jots seems the best pick this week so would go ‘IN’

    2. Angelic upstart
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wait if doing for -4 otherwise it's a coin toss

    3. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I would try to hold onto Antonio this week but Raphina can go..

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

    Which is better?

    A- Wilson (funds to upgrade King next week)
    B- Jesus

  23. Turdgen Plopp
    • 3 Years

    Do you think Jimenez will be benched again after his involvement with Mexico?

    1. cb68
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Seems to be the case

  24. cb68
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Which two should I start among
    Toney
    Mount
    Vardy
    Benrahma ?

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

      I'd go Toney and Mount

    2. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yikes, I’d be playing them all

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

      Toney & Mount

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

      Benrahma def

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

    I’m chasing big time.. is vardy to Kane for -4 worth it and captain K?

      Stats nerds blinded by fixtures

      1. Colonel Shoe 肝池

        form>fixtures but sometimes fixtures generate form......

    2. The Mentaculus

      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years

      Virtually everyone was until the last couple of weeks, no? So no surprise if people still have Toney/Mbeumo or both, and giving him/them another chance against Newcastle seems like common sense

    Am I GTG? Did Benny > Gallagher and was planning to roll the other transfer unless anyone thinks different?

    1FT and 0.7itb

    Steele
    TAA Cancelo Chilwell Livra
    Salah (C) Gallagher Havertz
    Antonio Toney Vardy

    Sanchez Raphinha White Gilmour

    1. cb68

    Sanchez Foster
    TAA Cancelo Livra Whtie Marcal
    Salah Havertz Foden Raphinha Gilmour

    C) Marcal + Havertz --> Jota + Reguilon
