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.

    Well, I'm locked and loaded for "double" game week 22:

    Ramsdale
    TAA / Cancelo / Dawson
    Bruno (v) / Jota / Bowen / Gray / Gallagher
    Antonio / Ronaldo (c)

    Reluctantly pondering a -4 for Broja ---> Dennis, or Ramsdale ---> De Gea but not convinced it will definitely pay off.

    Anyone feel the need to twist my arm to take the hit?

      whos your sub GK because Arsenal game sounds off...

      1. AARON-1
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Foster who will not probably play. Minus 4 for De gea? I think he will only get one clean sheet out of two...

  2. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Mount or Bruno? Don’t own Ronaldo FWIW.

    Captaining Kane

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

      Same dilemma but own Ronaldo

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks. Would you go Bruno without Ronaldo? Or that not a factor?

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

          Yep I'd go Bruno if I didn't have Ronaldo. I've got Ronaldo captain so no way he plays both :(!

    This week will be the first time in a long while that I've put the armband on a goalkeeper.

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

      DDG?

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

        yes, hopefully he'll at least get both games and could rack up some points.

      There's going to be one hell of a GW38 at this rate.

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

        is triple/quadruple GW a thing?!

  14. Bubbles1985
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Gallagher and Laca
    To
    Moura and Ronaldo

    Is this worth -8 or should I just get Ronaldo(c) for -4?
    Could also be Kane...

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      think Ronny

      1. Bubbles1985
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Just him for -4 seems fine?
        Leaves me with 5 DGWers

    Arteta’s comments today

    on the latest team news...

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

    Really puts me off bringing in Spurs players. What are your thoughts?

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

      There's a chance it gets cancelled?

      1. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Chances are your chances are very good

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

      i think it gets called

    3. Ron_Swanson
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      gonna be off IMO

  16. GoonerSteve
    • 14 Years

    What's the deal with Regullion?

    1. Bubbles1985
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Hopefully he plays as i already have him!

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

    A. ESR to Mount (c) (-4) and keep Salah
    B. No hit, play Keane (nor)

    Thanks

  18. jaywills
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Hi all.
    A) Saka to Mount (0)
    B) Saka and Broja -> Mount and King (-4)
    C) Broja to King (0)
    D) Roll and hope Saka and Broja play?
    Cheers and best of luck

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

    Usually,Mount is playing on the right side and Werner on the left side,right?

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

    Bench boost??:
    Foster Keane Guehi Martinelli ??

  21. abaalan
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Why is arsenal spurs possibly off?
    Kane still Captain option?

  22. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Lamptey or Cucurella?

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

    Can someone tell me why to get Bruno ? Thinking greenwood is a better option?

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

      Poor hope. Just some distant memory of Bruno being a good FPL option and crossing fingers he will magically recover that in the next two games.

    2. Michelle Davin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Just hoping,thats why im taking him..at least if cr7 scores he might get assists

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

        Has a double. Two week punt for me then back to Salah. Ronaldo may miss one game so may be on pens. Worth a go.

  24. Moose™
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Salah + Son to Bruno + Sterling?

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

      Nice

  25. willos_wanderers
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I have the following team at the moment:

    Fabianski
    Cancelo, TAA, Rudiger
    Gray, Bowen, Jota, Foden
    Watkins, Antonio, Ronaldo (c)

    Is it worth taking a free hit to get the following playing: (free hit team vs current in brackets)

    Fabianski -> De Gea
    Cancelo -> Cucurella
    Grey, Foden -> Mount, Moura
    Watkins, Antonio -> Dennis, Kane

    Plus free hit will give me a decent bench, not that that means much. If I don't free hit, bench would be rubbish.

    What do you guys think?

  26. Boomerang V
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    What are the odds of:

    1. Spurs vs Arsenal being postponed

    2. Ronaldo starting both games

    1. Maeki2
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      2. I think they will try other options so maybe less minutes for him 70% start

  27. Ha.
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Any advances on Varane as the best defender for the next few?

  28. C0YS
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Would Antonio to King for -4 be worth it in light of the potential DGW derailment?

    A) Yes
    B) No

  29. robt
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Trossard or Lamptey for -4?

    1. C0YS
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Not if you have a decent starting XI

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

    Should I play Chris Wood, or just jump on and get Ronaldo. Not convinced on captaining him so don’t know if it’s a waste.
