'Real' Players actual Fantasy Football teams

TravellerOg

I'm not sure if this has been brought up before but I came across an article tonight which showed the Stoke City FC Fantasy league with our own Jonny Walters picking himself and leading his league along with other Stoke players.

My question is, does anyone know of other such leagues or came across a players 'official' FF team?

Think it would be v interesting to see if they've picked themselves or rivals or just anyone!

Zarquon, myself and maybe dahat are in a tenner-in pay league which includes Peter Crouch. Who is also in that stoke league.

The Spurs league was posted here last year. Kane didn't captain himself vs Arsenal!

I'd say a lot of clubs have them.

Crouch is not in it any more. He must have got kicked out as a non-payer

More likely however is that he excluded himself. It's a grey area but cash mini leagues may count as gambling and as such Premier League footballers are banned from gambling on competitions they are involved in.

Yeah was just looking after that and couldn't find him. He wasn't doing that great anyway. Woulda been cool being neck and neck for the title with him!!

I was half thinking that myself.

Even if there was no cash involved, FPL is severely about pride and Crouchy et al may make a 'mistake' !

As a United fan, if Depay had of scored that one on one last week after being set up by Martial, I'd have been delighted but a small part of me disappointed as my rivals had Martial (C) and he wasn't in my team!

Welcome to the world of FPL addiction, where everything you thought you loved about soccer and your favourite team aren't quite so important any more, and every goal scored in the EPL has to be analysed for the good or damage it can do to your team, doesn't matter if it's a 40 yard screamer or Lukaku's dreadlocks momentarily blind the goalkeeper to bundle it in from 6 inches out.

Walters used bench boost the weekend and his bench had 2 players he was playing against that day, weird one!
