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. Bobby_Baggio
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        massively

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

        Although i like D, not a fan of bringing in Mount due to the upcoming blanks

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

          i agree, think i can find a suitable replacement though and he should be good for this GW

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

      I've decided to have a little fun and went Son > Trossard...

      Out of those, probs C although Bruno is out of form and Mount you'll be wanting rid of soon. Risks.

  3. Sanchit

    Bench one:
    A. Cancelo
    B. Bilva
    C. Raphinha

    1. RamaJama

      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Bilva

    2. Bobby_Baggio

      2 years, 2 months ago

      Bilva

  4. Mufc202020
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    A) Kane & Trossard
    B) Dennis/King & Bruno

    Go go go Go

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

      A, but I'd consider Dennis/King (I have King) and Trossard

  5. iL PiStOlErO
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Son+Dier to Mount+Sanchez for -4? Sanchez will olay 180mins and Regs probably wont thats why.

    DDG 3.9
    TAA Cancelo Dier Tierney Targett
    Son* Jota Bilva Bowen D. Luiz
    CR7 Dennis Antonio

    1ft, 0.7m itb

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

    Good luck all with the variance this GW...

    It's going to be a messy one!

  7. smix
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Doubts still linger about Ronaldo. Going Bruno captain instead

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

      No doubts whatsoever

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        No doubts?

  8. Jet5605
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    2 FT and 0.4 ITB. Thinking of keeping Salah and going without CR7 or is that a bad idea..

    A - Son > Mount (c) and roll 1 FT
    B - Antonio & Salah > Mount & CR7
    C - Other suggestion?

    DDG
    TAA - Cancelo - Lamptey - Coady
    Son - Jota - Bowen - Maddison
    Antonio - King

    Bachman - Broja - Salah - Dier

  9. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Who to captain? Have no idea

    A. Jota
    B. Bowen
    C. King
    D. DDG
    E. TAA
    F. Alonso
    G. DDG

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

      Thats a long list!

      Jota and Bowen are good options with SGW fixtures in their favour.

      Alonso and DDG not worth considering imo

      King is the best DGW option from that list.

      TAA a good differential i wouldnt have the bravery to attempt it though!

      I think CR7 is the best captain pick if you can afford him

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks man. Yeah no Ronaldo Kane or Bruno.

        Might go King although Burnley game at risk.

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'm going with the non-glamerous pick of DDG.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        That's funny

    3. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Gut says c. Brain says Ronaldo.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers. No Ron here

  10. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Evening all,

    Any obvious moves here? I’m a little stumped this week!

    DDG
    Trent, Cancelo, DALOT, Dawson
    Jota, Bowen, Gray
    CR7(c), KING(v), Antonio

    Ramsdale, Keane, Brownhill, Salah
    Bank 0.3m, 1FT

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Save or Keane to Emerson and bench Dawson

      Thoughts above?

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

      CR7 C is stumping me now!

  11. Siva Mohan
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    "Where a club cannot field 13 outfield players and a goalkeeper either from its squad list or its appropriately experienced Under-21 players, the match will be postponed."

    ARS have 11 outfield players + 2 goalies now

    Out: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (AFCON), Mohamed Elneny (AFCON), Thomas Partey (AFCON), Pepe (AFCON), Pablo Mari (loan announcement to Udinese expected soon), Granit Xhaka (red card), Martin Odegaard (COVID)

    Injured: Cedric, ESR, Tomiyasu, Okonkwo

    looks a postponement unless injured players return

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

      When have injuries and players going to tournaments ever warranted postponements before? Ridiculous, if they were all out with Covid I could understand it.

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

        Every other team has been doing it, why can't Arsenal? I don't agree with it but the Premier League rather stupidly made it part of the rules.

    2. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'd have thought ESR and Tomiyasu will be okay but if we can get the game called off until Partey, Odegaard are back and possible new signings, then I suspect that's what they'll do.

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

    Son and Esr out for KDB and Mount?

    Essentially is a minus 4 for Mount

    Yay?

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yay

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

        cheers pal

  13. Bruno Commando
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Any idea if Burnley vs Watford will be postponed? It's only 4 days from now...

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Doesn't look great, unfortunately... 🙁 🙁

  14. Athletico Underachieving
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Start Bavies or Coufal? Bavies double (for now), Coufal better singe fixture

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

    Any help?

    Antonio > Ronaldo to captain for a -4?

    Own Bowen and no United assets.

  16. Abaddon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Lamptey -4 and bench cancelo?

    Yay or nay?

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

      no

  17. iL PiStOlErO
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Son+Dier to Mount+Sanchez for -4? Sanchez has better chanches of playing 180min...

    Son* Jota Bilva Bowen D. Luiz

  22. Eat my goal!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    So likely outcome for the GW - Maddison hauls in his SGW, Ronaldo doesn't miss Villa but gets injured.

  23. Pringle
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    What would you do?

    A. Son —> Bruno
    B. Broja —> Dennis
    C. Save and play Coady

    1. Sun God Nika
      • 3 Years

    DDG+
    TAA. Cancelo. Reguilón+. Dalot+
    Jota. Gray. Bowen

    (Foster, Son+, Martinelli, Tierney)

  25. The Mantis

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

        me too, but which one? probably not Bruno for me as have Ronaldo. I've been leaning towards Mount all week even when Maddison had the double still in
