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.

      1. No one knows - depends how far Egypt make it in AFCON and they’ve only played one game so far.

      2. No one knows - was a suggestion that surgery might be needed, or maybe not. Not a lot of clarity around the injury at the moment.

      One or both of the Watford options. I have had Dennis from pretty early on and will stick with him. With CR7 likely to play just 1 game I'm considering bringing in king as well

    Desperate guys!! Would Ramsdale > DDG be worth a hit considering the risk of the Arsenal game being postponed and they blank in GW’s 25 and 27?

  14. ClaudesMackerelelé
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Only DDG, Alonso and King that double.

    Son / Gelhardt to Anthony Gordon/ Ronaldo (c) for a -4?

  17. Ferguson
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Team 1 or team 2?

    Team 1:
    DDG -
    Lamptey, TAA, Emerson R, Cucurella -
    Jota, Bowen, Bruno, Moura -
    CR7, Kane

    Team 2:
    DDG -
    Lamptey, TAA, Emerson R, Rüdiger -
    Jota, Bowen, Mount, Rashford -
    CR7, Kane

  18. Kodap

    Okay, if I make the move of Antonio > Ronaldo, does this team look right with bench order okay? Don't particularly like benching Bilva and Coufal but also not sure I want to play BB.

    Lloris
    Taa - Cancelo - Lamptey - Rudiger
    KDB - Jota - Bowen - Maddison
    Cr7 - Dennis

    Bachmann - Coufal - Bilva - Broja

    Mikel Arteta: "We had concerns already before the match against Liverpool, and after the game, we had some more issues. We haven't been able to assess the squad yet because we couldn't fly last night."

    "We just arrived to the training ground and all the boys are being looked after. So we don't know."

    Ars/Spurs looking very doubtful

  20. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Might be a second successive -8. I was up on last week’s but I don’t like it… but then a FH seems too risky this week

    Son + Edouard > Trossard + Ronaldo for-8?

    Or Son to Bruno for -4?

  21. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Play one:
    A. Bilva
    B. Gallagher

    1. Wee Jinky
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      A

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

      Bilva for me LRL. Gallagher has not been further out, so that would be a worry
      What do you think of the ARS-Spurs game becoming called off rumour? With Madds down to one game was thinking of Moura....but may just go with Raphina for the longer term.
      Who have you brought in to midfield?

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I think that game will be called off. Maybe you should try Mount.

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

          Have Mount, Jota, Bilva, Bowen, Son....may have to bring in Raphina for Son who could do well in upcoming games.

  22. Rash
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    I saw on twitter about Watford Newcastle being at risk of postponement..

    Any truth to this?

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

      I've seen nothing. Considering captain Dennis with Spurs-Arsenal at risk

  23. MoSalalalalalalalalah
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    GTG? Or, should I take out Livramento so I have a full bench? Would mean a -4 though

    5.2 ITB

    Lloris
    Cancelo | Reguilón | TAA
    ESR | Sissokho | Bowen | Mount
    Ronaldo | Dennis | Antonio

    GK: Ramsdale | Gallagher | Coufal | Livramento

    1. Wee Jinky
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      no

  24. CheesyZoot
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Salah & Davis > CR7 & Jorginho for -4?

  25. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    If you owned Sissoko would you play him over all the usual SGW suspects?

  26. KneejerkJoe
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Play 2:

    A) Foden (Che H) 75% fit
    B) Doucoure (Nor A)
    C) Diop (Lee H)
    D) Cancelo (Che H)
    E) Martinelli (Tot A)

    1. BIGREDDOG
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      AD w E bench

  27. andymck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Currently have a front three of watkins antonio and king, are any of these three actually worth selling for ronaldo?

    1. L S P
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Same FWDs. I'm moving Watkins for Ronaldo, if i do it, that is...

  28. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    1) Salah > Bruno
    2) Foden > Mount
    3) Salah + Antonio > Mount + Ronaldo(c) (-4)

    1. JoeSoap
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      3

  29. JoeSoap
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Son/Lac>Jota/Dennis -4 Y/N (Dennis may have only one game, if Burnley game gets cancelled, but long term move)
    Any better suggestions?

    D Gea
    Alonso, Cancelo, TAA
    Son, Bilva, Bowen, Gallagher
    Antonio, Ronaldo, Laca
    Foster, Johnston, Livra, Luiz,

  30. Beatle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    So am I safe now to bring in Moura??

    1. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      What’s changed?
