Scout Picks

FPL Double Gameweek 22 Scout Picks features double-ups from four clubs

We have chosen our best Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players for Double Gameweek 22 ahead of today’s 18:30 GMT deadline.

We line up in a 4-3-3 formation and, as ever, are limited to an £83.0m budget for our starting XI.

Our four substitutes, meanwhile, are always chosen from the budget crop of players.

We write this on Friday afternoon after the announcement that Burnley v Leicester City was postponed but before any other fixture news (the north London derby could be at risk, for example), so as ever, it’s worth keeping eyes and ears on any late developments as a ‘double’ could become a ‘single’ in a short space of time.

GOALKEEPER

The best FPL goalkeepers for a Double Gameweek 22 Free Hit

Despite several underwhelming performances from Manchester United in recent weeks, David de Gea (£5.2m) has continued to impress. Since Ralf Rangnick’s arrival in Gameweek 15, the Spaniard is averaging 5.2 points per match, whilst his +3.10 expected goals (xG) prevented total is better than any other keeper. Notably, his 87.5% save percentage is only trumped by Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Jose Sa (£5.2m), with his seven saves against Newcastle United a prime example of just how crucial he is to the Red Devils. Across the season, just four clean sheets in 19 appearances isn’t anything to shout about, but a Double Gameweek involving trips to Aston Villa and Brentford does give de Gea every chance to add to that tally.

    Also is it silly to bring Ronaldo in but not to captain him? In two minds, want to get him in case he plays two games, but also scared to captain in case he only plays one.

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years

      Who else are you going to captain?

      1. Mane Mane Mane
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Tempted by TAA

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE

      Not silly imo. He do have a double which in a way is making him a captain even if you don't captain (assuming he starts both)
      But gotta gamble a little bit, right?

    Lads, decided not to FH. Got 2FT, 0.8 itb.

    James&Salah-->D.Sanchez&Bruno?

    De Gea, 4.0
    James,TAA,Cancelo,Regu,Livramento
    Salah,Jota,Bilva,Foden,ESR

    So we have no idea if the second Burnley game is going ahead?

    If that got cancelled they would be 5 games behind!!

    1. TanN
      • 3 Years

      They will have a very congested schedule - lots of DGW's coming up but unfortunately no great picks for fantasy only really cornet, tarkowski, mee or lowton are worth considering imo with chris wood gone

    2. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'm thinking Nick Pope is coming in for me soon. Glut of doubles got to be worth it for the save points even if defence is rubbish.

  4. Sho-kun
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Should I either FH (have still 2) or do Son/Gelhardt --> Kane/Trossard -4

    DDG
    Cancelo/TAA/Reg/Marcal
    Foden/Jota/ESR/Sterling
    Watkins/Dennis

    Foster/Livra/Son/Gelhardt

  5. unclesbasement

    Is it worth me bringing in sanchez for another hit. Have ramsdale currently but there are rumours that the NLD will get postponed

  6. wulfrunian
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    *repost
    Is there a chance for a possible dgw24?If yes for which teams?

  7. FPL Polarbear
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Play Broja or Cancelo?

    1. Thewoodyhorse
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      cancelo

    2. Captain Scarlet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Broja

  8. Thewoodyhorse
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Who scores more this GW?

    Gallagher
    Greenwood -4
    Trossard -4

  9. HD7
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Spurs Arsenal postponed?
    Any idea about Watford Burnley?

    1. Thewoodyhorse
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      expect the Arsenal game to be called off

      More time for the Burnley game and if it was postponed they'd have a lot to make up, think it might happen.

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

    Is Son to Troussard a silly DGW motivated move?

    Not so keen on any of the other options, (including Mount), and he's an easy one to ship when I need Salah back

  11. Peekay
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    chances Ben Foster starting both games?

    1. L S P
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      IDK but I'm taking it.

  12. Buck The Trent
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which one ?

    A) 6 DGW players for -12
    B 8 DGW players using FH

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      B

  13. Will Kane
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Looking at Arsenal's situation, it looks to me (based on unflagged players, very scientific, I know) like they have plenty of players to field a team, just very lacking in central midfielders, so I would think the game would go ahead with a few players playing out of position.

    Of course there may be unreported injuries, Covid case etc....

    Basically I am trying to talk myself into the game being on so I can FH and triple up on Spurs....

    1. Will Kane
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Actually just did a recount and maybe not......

      1. unclesbasement
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        depends on injuries. If the likes of saka, tomiyasu, esr etc come back fit there should be no reason to field a decent team against spurs. The problem is also on spurs's end and it isnt good when both teams are looking to postpone.

  14. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Who is your captain and who is your vice?

    1. evilfish
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      not sure :/

      1. Sun God Nika
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        just about to post this question

        Im feeling Dennis or just ignore DGW and go for bowen

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Ronaldo C
      Mount VC

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Sanchez
      Bowen

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

      Ron c
      Jota vc

  15. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Antonio > Ronaldo to captain for a -4?

    Own Bowen and no United assets.

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

      Yes

  16. Eastman
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Bench one from...
    A. Cancello
    B. Foden
    C. Watkins
    D. Antonio (have Bowen)

    1. Goodfeathers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'd probably bench C. Given Pep hasn't confirmed who's out there's a good chance Watkins could end up getting auto subbed back in if A or B miss out.

  17. Hawk Eye
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    A. Ronaldo & Bowen
    B. Fernandes & Antonio

    What do you all say??

    1. Kalix
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      the two better FPL players on the team, or the two worse FPL players on the team?

      Easily A

      1. Kalix
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Fernandes so unreliable scout picks won't even pick him on a DGW. lol.

      2. Thewoodyhorse
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        A no brainer

  18. Lionac
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    A) Son to Moura for a hit
    B) Play Martinelli

  19. Harry Ball Bag™⚽⚽…
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Bruno over ronaldo for the double? Just wondering if ronaldo will play both games

  20. evilfish
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Current team:

    Foster (Ramsdale)
    TAA Cancelo Dawson (Dier) (Manquillo)
    Jota Foden Bowen Gray (Son)
    Antonio King Watkins

    1FT, currently thinking Son > Trossard, Manquillo > Lamptey (-4)
    Anyone got any better ideas?

  21. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I'm all set. Salah>Bruno, saving second FT. BB cancelled.

    SANCHEZ
    Trent RUDIGER DAVIES
    BRUNO Jota(vc) Raphinha Gallagher
    RONALDO(c) King Antonio

    Dias White Brownhill

  22. MountainBeach
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Still some doubts about Ronaldo on twitter. Should I just get Kane instead?

  23. Shultan
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    What's wrong with this page?

    & PL needs to review postponement rules NOW, suspensions, injuries & AFCON, on loan shouldn't mean automatically get postponed,
    They only 1 covid case

  24. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    A) Kane & Mount (-4)
    B) King (or any Striker up to 8.2M) & KDB (-4) (already have Dennis)..
    C) Antonio & KDB

    Cheers!

      Maddison still

      1. mg12
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        I might go Cancelo. Not sure Chelsea will score. I like his chances with an assist.

    2. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I’d bb tbh

      1. PepSala
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Mate just answer the question being asked..BB wasn't an option.

  26. The Mantis
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    please help on this day, what do i do?

    Sanchez (Steele)
    Coufal / Cancelo / TAA (Tierney / Livra*)
    Bowen / Silva / Jota / Gray (Son*)
    Dennis / Antonio / Ronaldo

    Feel like I have to take Son out as such a waste of funds now

    Son to Moura/KDB/Mount/Someone else?
    take a hit to replace Livra too with Lamptey perhaps??

    thank you!

  27. The Reptile
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Did Arteta say the game would definately be on?
    I saw that somewhere

  28. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Bilva to Mount for A hit or just go with DDG, Rudiger, Dennis and Kane as possible dgw players?

  29. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Blimey.

    I can’t believe I’ve just done Salah ➡ Bruno(c) -4

    Gulp

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years

  30. mg12
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Really unsure about my GW22 transfers. Which would you do?

    A) Salah ---> Bruno
    B) Salah, Toney ---> Mount, Ronaldo, -4
