I thought it would get a better response posting this outside of the 'Fantasy Football' thread but if a Mod wants to merge it, go ahead. 
I was watching a football game and commented that i was glad a certain player (can't remember who) played over 70mins or whatever it is that gets you extra points and we were joking about managers doing it on purpose for the points side. Just imagine SAF checking his watch and thinking "Oo might take Giggs off now, he got his points".
Do you think footballers play 'Fantasy Football' like us mere mortals? It would be quite odd in the dressing room..."Amazing game Nani AND you were my captain!" or something like "So glad i picked myself! Hattrick!" or even RvP asking Sagna when he is back and subbing him back in again...
Maybe that's how Mancini does it...picks players who are in his 'Fantasy Football' team?
