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.

    OK think I’m set, is this good to go??

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo James Alonso
    Salah Son Foden Raphinha Gallagher
    Jimenez

    Foster Antonio Livramento Davis

    I had to take my first -4 hit of the season for Chilwell >> Alonso, because I did an early transfer of Mbeumo >> Gallagher to avoid being priced out… I kind of regret that early transfer now…

    Thanks for your help and comments

      Yup looks well set and monitor the Foden situation

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

      Same here, regret an early move which I never usually do. Dias>James.

      But you have Antonio on the bench if Foden doesn't play, but I have a crap bench. I am thinking of moving Foden to Jota for a -8, as I am worried he is out wide, and maybe injured for two or more GW's with their squad

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

        Yeah mate I never do early transfer either, this is why haha

        Who comes on if Foden doesn’t play?

  2. Diddi89

    2FT, 20k rank and still not used wildcard.

    Livra > Alonso
    Foden> Gundo - what is your thoughts on this as Gundo looked Sharp
    Vs PSG, on penalties and have been more attacking without grealish/kdb in the team.

    • Sanchez
    • TAA CANCELO JAMES WHITE ALONSO
    • SALAH JOTA ESR GUNDO
    • KANE
    Bench: Gallagher, Antonio, Perica

    A. Start: Gallagher or White
    B. Livra > Reguilon
    C. Antonio/livra > ASM (for next GW) and alonso
    D. Any suggestions

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

      Can't bench Gallagher. Bench white

      You have a benching headache so that usually means roll the transfer

      1. Diddi89
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Have 2FT and want alonso in. This means that I am -0.5 off so need to do 2 transfers. Could do Foden > gundo and roll a transfer and play Both gallagher and white but than no Alonso.

    2. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I dont see Livra in your team so not sure who is going to be Reguilon

      Id maybe go Perica to another fodder or Antonio to ASM and bench. Dont burn a Ft

      1. Diddi89
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Have Livra now but plan is Livra out and alonso in.
        Required 2FT.
        Could go another route in terms of Reguilon in instead of livra and roll a transfer.

    3. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I dont think Foden starts TBH.

  7. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Narrowing it down now:

    A) Chilwell + Omo + Havertz --> Cancelo + James + ESR (-4)
    B) Chilwell + White + Havertz --> Cancelo + Alonso + Bernardo (-4)
    C) Chilwell + Omo + Havertz + Foden + --> Cancelo + Alonso + Bernardo + Jota (-8)

    Currently leaning B

    1. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      yeah, i'd do B or just set your self up for Xmas and have a turkey leg with C

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

    a) play mbeumo (coady first sub), roll ft and wait a week to do veltman > alonso

    b) do veltman > alonso now, (bench would be 1st sub mbeumo 2nd coady)

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

      Do transfer

  9. CoracAld2831
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Sanchez
    James-TAA-Cancelo
    Mbeumo-Jota-Raphinha-Salah(c)
    Vardy(vc)-Antonio-Jimenez

    Foster-White-Gilmour-Livramento

    0,7m
    1 FT

    In your opinion, the optimal 2nd move (1st: Havertz to Jota) for GW13 for the above team?:

    A: White -> Reguilon
    B: Mbeumo -> Gallagher
    C: Do nothing and save transfer ie: GTG
    D: Other?

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Easy save

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

    Would you take any hits this week? I guess the real question is Chilwell to Alonso worth the hit?

    Sanchez
    TAA Cancelo James
    Salah Raphinha Havertz Gallagher
    Dennis Antonio Vardy

    Steele Livramento Gilmour Chilwell

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Probably not worth a hit this week given the fixture.

  11. upforgrabs
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Play Hwang or Mbeumo?

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Hwang

    2. CoracAld2831
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Hwang has Norwich so i'd say him.

    3. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      If not against Norwich then Hwy own him?

  12. John Nerdelbaum
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo James
    Salah Jota Gallagher Foden
    Vardy Toney Antonio

    Foster/Duffy/Brownhill/Livra

    0.9m ITB

    Thinking either

    Duffy > Regi and roll the free
    Foden & Duffy > Bernardo & Alonso and bench Antonio

    Any thoughts?

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

      1 sounds good

      1. John Nerdelbaum
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Ta

    2. CoracAld2831
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      The first option

  13. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Will james rest vs watford ?

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

      Likely IMO given West Ham away just a few days later

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

      Do u really expect anyone here to know 😆

    3. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Good chance 70/30

  14. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Sanchez (foster)
    Matip rudi cancelo taa (white)
    Town mbeumo salah raph
    Vardy jimi (antonio)

    Which?

    A) town to moura
    B) matip to james/alonso
    C) matip town -4 to jota davies
    D) matip town -4 to moura alonso/james
    E) raph matip -4 to jota james

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B with James.

      1. Nightf0x
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Isnt alonso better given he is surely will start vs watford?, Keep in mind i will WC in gw15

        1. Hulk Smash
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          James is the better long term pick but yeah if you're WC soon anyway then Alonso is probably more nailed short term.

  15. pls
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Any love for Dennis over King especially if most likely going to be playing 4 at the back with dennis benched most weeks for cover, thinking of

    Antonio, Mbemuo ---> Dennis, Jota for free?

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

      King seems better from various metrics (stats, yellow card, rotations) but there is the price difference there. If not planning to play a 3rd striker very often, Dennis could work. Noticed Watford rotate quite well with Newcastle as they have NOR/BUR when WAT has CHE/MCI in 14/15 and Watford have BUR/CRY when NEW has LIV/MCI in 17/18…

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Depends how long you want him for as I'm pretty sure he'll go to AFCON and it's not a position you want to have to spend a transfer on.

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Ivory Coast didnt qualify

  16. UKG
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Chilwell to Alonso/Rudiger or Regulion? (Have James)

    Also Foden to Gallagher/Jota -4?

    1. Casual Player
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Chilwell to Alonso

      Foden to Jota, but only if you have no bench to cover Foden

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Alonso
      No

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

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

    1. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      keep

  18. Lingard’s Shin Guards
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    which one

    A) Antonio -> Benteke
    B) Hwang -> Jimenez
    C) Antonio, McArthur -> Davis, Son (-4)

    1. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A i guess

  19. Casual Player
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Does the embargo media stuff have a regular time it’s released and is it before the deadline?

    Asking as would really like a bit more Foden news.

    If there is none leaning towards rolling a FT and taking my medicine this week. I’m playing a few guys I’ve seen people asking where they should put them on their bench :/

  20. Hulk Smash
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Which move looks best and why? (Mbeumo is currently first sub if Foden misses out).

    A - Foden to Jota
    B - Mbeumo to Gallagher
    C - save FT

    1. Casual Player
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I would C

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

      C

    3. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      C

    4. SAY MY NAME
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      i'd do A

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

      A. Foden may not start, when will he start, tomorrow, Wednesday, Sunday? IS not playing in the middle until Grealish is back which may be longer

  21. melvinmbabazi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Chillwell and Ronaldo to TAA and Jiminez for - 4?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

          I just read that Ronaldo and Cavani won't suit Rangnick's Gegenpresse style

    4. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No I'd probably keep Ronaldo if I owned him.

    5. SAY MY NAME
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      not sure a hit is worth it but could pay off, or just do chillwell to alonso

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

      yes, TAA will outscore Ronaldo for sure this season

      I'm worried about a Foden cameo or coming off before 60mins like last week. No other options really, maybe Gallagher?

    Thoughts on the below:

    A: Chilwell + Raphina = Chalobah + Jota -4
    B: Chilwell + Foden = Alonso + Jota -4

    ?

    1. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      B
