Apart from one or two off shore accounts I keep my cash under the mattress... So to speak.

Had a nibble at it a couple of months ago.
I think it’s a glorified online casino.
The spread of buy and sell can often be large too.

I didn’t lose but I did get bored quickly. The movement in player prices is basically down to them scoring, assisting and playing well in a game. If they don’t play well or pick up an injury then their price often goes down. Because of the spread between buy and sell you need them to play well a few times.
It started spoiling my enjoyment of watching the games.

Some people might like it but I’d say it’s no different than backing who you like to score a goal and without the risk of the amount of money involved.

I bought shares in Dwight McNeil, De Bruyne, Felix (athletico madrid), Rodri and McGinn.
I started watching Felix play for Madrid - the games were shockingly boring and it suddenly dawned on me “what the hell am I doing ?”.....for the sake of a potential few quid profit !!!

Don’t do it !!
