I partially agree, just try to look at it this way : all those players are paqid fotr their job, they are pros and they have to be good if the made it to your team. And every one of them has some followers, even if they are only autographs collectors selling things on eBay or elsewhere .)
Another thing would be how stars should be considered. Playing time is not an option obviously. (training, game shape). There are amnyn possible approaches, not sure if those scripts would add anything to the game. After all it is only a fan survey, almost an irrelevant thing.
