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.

    Raphinha or Trossard this week considering Raphinha could get a double soon

      I bought Keane last gw over Coufal because he had a dgw and was potentially having secong dgw now in 22. He ended up having back to back sgws.

    Is Reguilón to Emerson Royale for - 4 a waste? Just no clarity on Reguilón’s fitness annoyingly!

    1. Shteve
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

  5. smix
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Current defence is a mess. But who do I bring in for a hit ?
    TAA Cancelo BJohnson*James* Livra

    Is Johnson out of favour now ?

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

    Blimey, I want to free hit again now. Must resist right?

    1. smix
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Not worth it with so much uncertainty

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

      i am. Better opportunities in the future. I'm holding both FHs for now

      Thanks guys

    Repost...
    BENCH one of these:

    a.) Gray
    b.) Foden
    c.) Maddison

    1. Cheeky Onion
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Probably Mads, but Foden could get rested anyways

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

      Maddison

  8. Cheeky Onion
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Bottomed...Is my bench correct?

    DDG
    TAA - Cancelo - Reguilon
    Foden - Jota - Bowen - Martinelli
    Ronaldo - Watkins - Dennis

    Bachmann - Silva - Coufal - White

  9. Boss Hogg
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    BENCH one of these defenders:

    a.) Cancelo
    b.) Trent
    c.) Dawson

    1. Manani
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      got all 3, benching C atm

    2. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Geez, tough one. Probably C just as the other 2 are more attacking so always a chance if a return that way. B, A, C would be my rank though of start to bench

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

      dawson

  10. Thomas Magnum
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Is anybody captaining a SGW player?

    1. Milk, 1 Šuker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I am 90% doing so TM

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Good to hear from you again, WGC! Who’s taking your fancy right now, Bowen is catching my eye as is

        1. Milk, 1 Šuker
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          And you sir! I'd go Bowen but not captaining Ronny gives me FOMO

    2. Harvey_27
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      if there was a Salah-ish standout, I'd consider it, but I really don't think there is, even Bowen in the form he's in

  11. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Sell B. Williams or B. Johnson?

  12. mcsteely
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Antonio to Dennis to free or roll FT?

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

      Who are your other 2 forwards?

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

        Ronaldo and DCL

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

          Yes, but only just

  13. abaalan
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    why would Ars-Spurs be postponed?
    Greenwood an option, considering Uniteds fixtures?

    1. frenchfries
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I think he will become deadwood when you realise he wont get enough minutes going forward. On free hit on the other hand i would consider

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

    Was all set on getting Maddison and Dennis… but what now?

    Ramsdale
    Cancelo TAA Coufal
    Jota Foden Gallagher Bowen
    Ronaldo(C) Watkins Antonio

    Steele Martinelli Tierney Dias

    A) Ramsdale -> DeGea
    B) Ramsdale + Coufal -> De Gea + Lamptey (-4)
    C) Suggestions?

  15. JBG
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Should I start Duffy over Dawson?

    And is it worth taking -8 hit for, Son+Ødegaard+Ramsdale for Bruno+Trossard+DDG?

  16. M2.0
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    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?

  17. jaywills
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    A) Saka to Mount (0)
    B) Saka and Broja -> Mount and King (-4)
    C) Broja to King (0)
    D) Roll and hope Skaa and Broja play?
    Cheers!

  18. Mozumbus
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    A. Son + Antonio > Ronaldo + mf for a hit (have Kane)
    B. Son > Bruno using FT

    1. FPLtfs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  19. smix
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Watkins/ Antonio, Son & James to Ronaldo(c), Mount & Royal for -8 worth it ?

    1. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

  20. nico05
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    With 12 fit players is: Is Livra - lamptey or Reguilon worth a -4?

    1. acidicleo

      nope

  21. acidicleo

  22. Wax

    1. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

  23. bso
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    This is worrying. Ronnie left training early with an injury yesterday. Anyone with more info?

    1. The Mantis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I feel he's doing shorter sessions as he's just getting back to fitness. RR comments weren't too worrying, but still, I don't expect him to play 90 in both games. I do expect him to feature in both though, as we really need to climb the table

    2. Bobby_Baggio
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Broken toe nail or something silly - believe he is fit

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

      Thanks guys. Most helpful. Especially as I am hearing the ARS -Spurs game could be cancelled.

  24. Bobby_Baggio

    2. FPLtfs

      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

  25. Saintjack01

    A) Robertson and mount for -4
    B) trossard and mount -4

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2 years, 3 months ago

    What are the chances that Foden actually plays:

    - He is the relapse COVID positive
    - Nobody Knows anything
    - Pep Roulet and he does not play
    - He plays
    - He is getting disciplined again
    - He has a tooth ache
    - Manchester gets a snow storm
    - He plays 10 minutes
    - Don't own Foden, silly!

    1. King Kun Ta
