Hang your head in shame Eric Dier…
JOE always wondered if Premier League footballers take any notice of their own valuation in the Premier League Fantasy league.
While Robin Van Persie and Sergio Aguero might get a small ego boost from seeing their names accompanied with an expensive price-tag, we wonder if the likes of Tom Carroll or Ryan Mason need an occasional comforting word from their mother which reassures them that they’re “priceless in my eyes son”.
While this probably doesn’t happen the aforementioned duo must feel like they’re valued at £15m each right now because they lead Spurs’ Dream Team table which is named, Hundreds In.
The private details of the Spurs league have been revealed and Tom Carroll (currently on loan at Swansea) is in top spot with Ryan Mason and Harry Kane currently level in second place.
Spurs striker Kane can do no wrong now, especially since his heroics against Chelsea, and we love his ‘sure-thing’ belief by naming himself in his own team.
It’s a shame that he didn’t make himself captain during gameweek 20 but we think he had a good enough night at White Hart Lane.
On the other end, Ryan Mason must have really low self-esteem because he dropped himself in his own team in favour of teammate Christian Eriksen. Pragmatism > dreams.
Take a look at Kane’s team.
