Stoke City’s Marko Arnautovic devastates Fantasy Football managers everywhere

SportsJOE

Bloody typical.

Trying to maintain your work-life balance whilst managing a fantasy football team isn’t easy. What started off as a fun pastime to make meaningless games more interesting has turned into a stressful headache.

Just when you think you’ve done your research, analysed the form and selected your optimal XI of a matchday, the guy you left on the bench has a stormer whilst your captain contributes zilch.We were told Marko Arnautovic was supposedly out of Stoke City’s home game with Aston Villa, so of course would-be Wengers and hopeful Joses around the country removed him from their fantasy sides.

Well, he played. And only went and scored two priceless second-half goals in a 2-1 victory. Here are just a few of the very disgruntled droppers.
