Mark Sutherns’ FPL Gameweek 13 preview and latest team plans

Andy North and Mark Sutherns drop into their regular Friday night slot for another laid-back look at the key Fantasy Premier League (FPL) talking points ahead of Gameweek 13.

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.

Ben Chilwell‘s (£6.0m) injury, coupled with some early Sunday night transfers, has forced Mark to take only his second hit of the season. However, when it’s Marcos Alonso (£5.6m) coming in, he seems more than happy to take his medicine.

As for Andy, he’s closing the gap on Mark after another green arrow and, having resisted a hasty move for Reece James (£6.1m), is still considering his own hit to swap out Phil Foden (£8.3m) for Diogo Jota (£7.6m).

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

    Hi guys, help please:

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo James
    Salah Son Foden Raphinha Gallagher
    Jimenez Antonio

    Foster Livramento Davis Chilwell

    0FT 0itb

    1. Chilwell >> Alonso (-4)
    2. Foden >> Jota / Bilva (-4)
    3. Hold (Livramento plays if Foden is out)

    With 1 and 2 Antonio first sub but gives protection if Foden is out.

    Thanks

    1. Tonyawesome69

      1

    2. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      1. Chilwell needs to go.

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

      3

    4. Crispo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      1 and play him with Antonio first sub.
      May as well need Chilwell out long term and prices likely to change.

    5. My Name Is Prince
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      1

    6. OptimusBlack

    7. The-Red-1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Get rid of Chilwell. If you can wait then save the -4 with Livra your sub.

      But if you do it now, gives you one more on the bench I guess.

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

        Would be my first hit of the season…

    8. Tactical Frank
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      1 for Alonso or Reguilon

    9. Dezzler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Hold. Ask yourself what your priority is. Presumably that is Chillwell. So taking a hit on Foden still means you need to move Chillwell out.

    Really can’t decide who to bench…

  5. Milk, 1 Šuker

    Evening chaps, one decision to make: ESR or Gallagher until GW20?

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

      Gallagher, could you help above please

    2. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Esr biggest potential upside to me even if fixtures arent so good.

    3. Crispo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Gallagher

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Probably ESR. Mili affects Gallagher as a FPL option then Eze due to start soob

    5. My Name Is Prince
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Gallagher

    6. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I prefer ESR

  6. how now brown cow
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    I'm stuck. Please help.

    A - foden to jota. Will mean playing antonio and white and benching Benrahma.

    B - antonio & benrahma to jota and. hwang -4. Play foden, bench white.

    1. FCSB

      Antonio, could you help above please

    2. Abaddon

      White

    3. how now brown cow

      Ant

    4. My Name Is Prince

      2 years, 4 months ago

      White

    5. Tonyawesome69

      Antonio

    6. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I had same final choice

      Went White on the pitch and Antonio as 1st sub.
      4 at the back, so if James doesnt play then Antonio come in

  8. OptimusBlack
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    If u already -4 It Worth to Sell Torssard to
    A- Jota
    B- B.Silva
    C- Keep

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

      Hold for now, help above please

    2. My Name Is Prince
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on the rest of your team, but if you do sell I'd fancy BSilva but it's a tough choice for me, 51-49

  9. Aaa

    Is Havertz to Jota worth -4? Or is this just ‘expert’ hype re getting rid of Havertz?

    1. noquarternt
      • 8 Years

      Has Havertz been getting you the points you want?

  10. basilfawlty
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Chilwell to Alonso for a hit or play Armstrong/Livramento?

    Already used FT to get Jota for Foden.

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Alonso

    2. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Just play Armstrong I say.
      I am a Liverpool fan, always a chance we give a goal away

    3. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years

      Get Alonso, everyone will soon

  11. My Name Is Prince

    A) Jota
    B) BSilva

    1. basilfawlty

      Not helpful, but I have A and have the hots for B. Trying to squeeze him in next week......just lack of Antonio downgrade option has delayed me

    Foden owners.
    I am deciding to keep him.. play him and Antonio 1st bench.. opinions?

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

      Do it

    2. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Don't own but would absolutely play if I did. I have Antonio, he is on my bench. I have played e.g. Toney, Zaha, White all ahead of him

    3. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'm holding him and starting. Benching Antonio or White.

      1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I literally tossed a coin to decide on the same one. It fell on White, so Antonio on the bench. Coin toss I find helps my mental state of mind on a Friday with regard FPL

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

          I can't decide. Just feel like Newcastle will find a goal.

          1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            To contradict my earlier decision..... I nearly ditched Antonio to Wilson for the same reason! And was going to bring Amartay in for for Lowton (I brought White in, in the end and held my 2nd FT)

    4. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Sold for Jota for a hit, see Pep's word "hope back soon". That sounds like at least more than 3-4 days since not hope back this weekend or something like that

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Foden trained today so he’s back.

  13. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    How bad is this weather meant to be tomorrow. Meant to be driving to Anfield from Leeds, but really can't be bothered being stranded on the awful M62 for hours.....

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years

      I'm no meteorologist, but I suspect there are better websites for this question

      1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        At least I got a response! Often football related questions get ignored if the original post involves more than 20 words .... or God forbid, some big words.....

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Shovel in the boot and an extra vest and you'll do fine.

      2. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I guess, maybe I should have worked out there are no North/North West actual football fans on here who travel to games...... all of the armchair variety (or bedroom with a headset)

        1. noquarternt

          I’d like to help you but I live in the Australian desert.

            You get Saturday 3pm live streams ?

              5G. We get every game PL game live and free with an Optus phone plan.

              Just gotta stay up all night to watch them…

                    Yeah worst time zone for football.

                    East coast you get the midweek PL and CL games at breakfast, west coast you get Saturday/Sunday ones in the evening.

                    Both slightly out of reach here…ah well…

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

          Or, just maybe, there are loads and loads of people who can't help or have no ideas what you're on about. Could be in any part of the world. So just didn't reply, as they don't to 95% of posts.

          Or, it could be all about you and your north/west location.

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

      Just a bit of wind and rain?

  14. noquarternt
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    I know Alonso is probably worth the risk,

    But with Kante not being 100%- do you really think Tuchel will play both Alonso and James?

    Think half this place is going to meltdown once the team sheet comes out.

    1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      If I were him, I would probably go Azpi with Shaw and whoever plays LW for Utd... (I am a James owner).
      Though a chance he pops Azpi in the centre as Ronaldo not the quickest these days and Azpi an intelligent reader of movement.
      I'd imagine Alonso will start.

      So, not much help.... I have James on the pitch, with Antonio as sub 1

      1. noquarternt
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah it’s interesting isn’t it. You’d think Azp on Ronaldo makes the most sense, but I can’t see both strikers James and Alonso. Could be either that miss out of course.

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      This is a good point. Telles should start for United and yes very attacking so might cause Alonso some problems.

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

    Does anyone know how much longer Alonso's price is locked for?

    1. Blueberg
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Til he plays again I think?

  16. FFFoxy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Foden to jota -4?

    1. Blueberg
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I just did...

    2. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Nah. Pep said Foden was looking OK, no?

    3. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Not for a hit. Foden might outscore Jota.

  17. Nicoson
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Havertz to Jota or Gundo?

    1. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Jota

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Jota foy now

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

    One of those weeks where I’m not feeling confident in my team at all. I have really low expectations for this weekend. At least I shouldn’t be too disappointed.

    1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Nah

      Chelsea Clean sheet
      Liverpool clean sheet
      TAA assist
      Salah and Jota - 3 goals between them, 1 assist
      Son to rip it up v Burnley
      Toney scores
      Jimi scores
      Zaha goes wild v Villa

      All will be fine

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Arsenal 0-2 Newcastle (Wilson x2)
        Palace 1-1 Villa (Zaha, Watkins)
        Liverpool P-P Southampton (called off due to storm)
        Norwich 1-0 Wolves (Pukki)
        Brighton 0-1 Leeds (Rodrigo)
        Brentford 0-2 Everton (Rondon, Doucore)
        Burnley 1-1 Spurs (Wood, Moura)
        Leicester 2-0 Wolves (Iheancho, Barnes)
        Man City 1-2 West Ham (Gunogan, Cancelo OG, Antonio)
        Chelsea 0-1 Man Utd (Rashford)

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years

      I think this week will have high variance, but likewise worried of falling down the ranks this GW

    3. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      I think the extreme conditions in the north will really affect City and Liverpool

  19. Blue Moon Rising

    Start two from Toney, Hwang and Antonio?

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years

      Would lean towards the first 2

    2. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…

      yep 1st 2

      Save ft

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo

      Yep, would say so

  21. n-doggg
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Seems a high risk policy switching Foden for jota? Think I’m going to roll FT?

    Sanchez, Steele
    TAA, cancelo, James, white, livramento
    Salah, Foden, raphinia, Gallagher, sissoko
    Kane, Antonio, Toney

    Thanks

      I think you'll be fine as is - it's a good side!

    Seems an odd time to get Alonso in. Yeh they are solid but United do seem to score goals at least.

    1. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No for his clean sheets, they can’t defend (united that is)

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

        I have no Chelsea or Liverpool. TAA or him?

          Whoa- how’s your season going?

        2. n-doggg
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          I hope you mean no Liverpool defence!

          TAA is the most important for you to get right now

      2. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…

        Not yet

        Watch the impact Ragnick has.
        Shaw and Lindelof will be FPL gold in a few weeks....

        1. Heiro

    Would you make any changes here or roll a FT?

    2. n-doggg

      Roll

  24. The Count of Monte Cristo
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Thinking of == Havertz + Amartey —> James + Gallagher (-4). Latter both due to rise and Havertz may fall too.

    Sánchez
    TAA - Cancelo - White
    Salah - Son - Raphinha - Saka - Havertz
    Toney - Antonio

    Foster - Wilson - Livramento - Amartey [1FT + 0.5m ITB]

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

      Yep for me

    2. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Do it

      1. The Count of Monte Cristo
        • 11 Years

        Thank you both 🙂

    Havertz out
    Jota in

    As straight forward as it could get for me this week right ?

    1. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No brainer

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

        Should there be a thought for Gallagher instead ?

        1. n-doggg
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          No, not whilst Firmino is out

        2. The Count of Monte Cristo
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          A thought yes, but would still go Jota while the fixtures are decent and he's due to start regularly in an in-form side who score goals.

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

            Makes sense...Nice one fellas

    A) Chillwell & ASM to TAA and Davis (-4)
    B) Chilwell to Lamptey

    ASM on the pine this week

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Would take the hit to get TAA in - season keeper.

    2. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      C. Chillwell to Alonso

  27. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Foden:

    1 - to bernardo silva for free
    2 - to galagar for free
    3 - save transfer and hope

    1. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I’m on c

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Would lean towards 3 - save.

    Alonso a better pick than James?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No. Maybe in a short term lens as I think James will be benched vs. Watford. But also think James more likely to return attacking wise vs. Man Utd.

  29. Auba Xhaka Laca Saka Laca

    Gallagher or King?

    1. CoracAld2831
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years

      Gallagher
