With the ePremier League finals taking place between 26-27 March, we profile the gamers seeking glory for their clubs.
TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR
NAME: Thomas Leese
GAMER TAG: Tom Leese
SOCIAL HANDLE: @TomLeese
CONSOLE: PS5
PLAYER PROFILE: After winning the competition two years ago with his first attempt with Watford, Thomas is now hoping to regain his title representing the club he supports, Tottenham Hotspur.
The 23-year-old from Cheshunt has played professionally since finishing his A-levels and also creates content on Twitch and YouTube.
Why should people be excited for the ePL?
The team format is going to bring a lot of drama and the UK pros have a lot to offer. There is going to be a lot of top talent on display. With that in mind, I'm sure you're going to see lots of great goals!
What would it mean to you to win the ePL?
It would be massive for me, I've been a little out of form in FIFA 22 so far but I'm hoping to put that right. To win my first trophy this year would be amazing. It would mean a lot for me and my family, who would be buzzing! I really want to win this for them and for the Spurs.
What formation and style of play do you adopt in-game usually?
My main formation is 4-4-2, I can change at times but this is my go-to. High pressure, pressing my opponent and knowing exactly when to win the ball back so I can start a counter-attack on goal.
Who is the most underrated Premier League item in FUT 22?
89 Versus-Fire Gabriel Jesus.

Why should people be excited for the ePL?
High-scoring games, very nice goals and some super-exciting match-ups.
What would it mean to you to win the ePL?
It's such a big tournament, it would mean so much to win the ePL.
What formation and style of play do you adopt in-game usually?
I'm currently using 4-2-2-2 as my formation, it's slightly different to 4-4-2 and suits my narrow playing style. I'm very attacking and I'm confident I'll be able to outscore my opponent.
