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.

    Ah here it is.

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

      finally 🙂

  2. fplgaruda

    Come on Arsenal, announce it.

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

      New contract for Auba?

      1. fplgaruda
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Lol

  3. McSauce
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Bench one;

    A) Maddison
    B) Martinelli
    C) Gallagher
    d) Bilva

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      B

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

      B - might happen anyway if Arsenal game postponed which looks increasingly likely

  4. Neo-Viper
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Salah and Anto out for Mount and Ronnie.

    Yay or nay?

  5. Fuddled FC

    2 years, 2 months ago

    "Despite just the one fixture in Double Gameweek 22, Emmanuel Dennis (£6.1m) – who is expected to be fit"

    Thought it hadn't been cancelled yet?

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 12 Years

      They love to troll

    2. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      People ITK...

  6. jonnybhoy
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Need some help guys

    SANCHEZ
    RUDIGER Trent Cancelo
    Bowen Jota SON* Gray
    Antonio RONALDO Watkins

    Ramsdale Martinelli Johnson Livra

    Original plans was Watkins + Son to Dennis + Maddison -4pts but think best just to move Son on and save the second FT, any suggestions?

    1. Ginola
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Same thinking. Antonio out for Dennis for a minus 4 could massively backfire, especially if Burnley VS Watford gets cancelled.

      1. jonnybhoy
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Fully agree. Rival has dennis but don't think the -4 is worth it

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

    I have 5 of the scout picks plus one on my bench as first sub (Jota).
    I'm surprised they haven't gone with Lucas Moura.

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

      Probably concluded Arsenal game will be called off

    2. Devos
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      You benched Jota???

      1. LangerznMash
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        It was either bench Jota or TAA because my other players are all on double game weeks.

  8. The Mighty Hippo
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I can't think of any decent moves to make and at this point I think I'm probably going to end up rolling my FT. Any suggestions? 1FT and 1.2M in the bank.

    DDG
    TAA Cancelo Alonso Coufal
    KDB Mount Foden Bowen Jota
    Antonio
    ------------------------
    Ramsdale Watkins Tierney Scarlet

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

      Who's yer captain is the big question.

      1. The Mighty Hippo
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        not a clue...probably DDG or Bowen

    2. cigan
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      would play Watkins over Coufal

      1. The Mighty Hippo
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        yeah, that's a good call, I'll make that change - thanks

    3. Pacer.
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Just cap ddg. I'm in a similar position and I don't think this week is worth much expenditure of anything

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

    Atm I've only got 4 dgw players.
    Alonso Sanchez Toney and Dennis.
    Who should I captain?
    Sanchez?
    Help!

  10. RUUD!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    The article says 'despite just the one fixture in DGW22' - referring to Dennis, do they know something we don't or?

  11. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Bruno (C) anyone?

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

    A) Kane & Mount (-4)
    B) King & KDB (-4)
    C) Antonio & KDB

    Rest of Team:

    DDG
    TAA, Cancelo, Reguilon
    Jota, Bowen, Gray
    Ronaldo, Dennis

    (Steer, Keane, Dier*, Saka*)

    Cheers!

  13. MGD

    Why does it say Dennis only have 1 fixture now? Have Burnley v Watford been postponed as well?

    1. DandyDon
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Well spotted! I have no idea, I haven't heard anything, Burnley's next one in doubt I guess.

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

      Very poor writing.

    3. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Just a mistake at this stage

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Flippin' HUGE mistake!

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

      The graphic for the DGW 22 picks doesn't show him on my screen just 'Forward'

      1. Tommy J
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Actually mine also includes other defenders as well as Salah, Bowen and Antonio?

      2. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Has Salah in midfield too?

    5. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      The ghost of Munday past

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

        What happened to Munday?

  14. vincentwsho
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    What to do?

    A) Martinelli to Trossard
    B) save FT, play Foden
    C) save FT, play Coufal
    D) save FT, play Reguilon

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

      D

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

      D

  15. DandyDon
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I'm going Bruno and Trossard who can surely get more points than only Mount as a DGW midfielder and Lampety! I may be proved wrong...I have had to 'downgrade' TAA to Robbo and go with Kepa and Varane over Rudiger and DeGea. Rest the same. These changes should make may FH pretty differential.

  16. 03farmboy

    Thoughts on Jorginho in for son? Double game and on pens

    1. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Depends if you can easily get rid of him in a couple of weeks.

  17. Make Arrows Green Again
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    "Despite just the one fixture in Double Gameweek 22, Emmanuel Dennis..."

    Is this true? Isn't this working on the premature assumption that Burnley get their second GW22 fixture cancelled too?

    1. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Sorry, I posted this when there had only been one comment on this article but the site went down temporarily.

  18. 420king

  20. FPL price manipulators are …
    • 10 Years
