Lukasz Fabianski picked his Ultimate 5-A-Side team for Soccer AM, but had some doubts about including Nicklas Bendtner!

West Ham goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski sat down with Soccer AM's Smithy to pick his ultimate five-a-side team - but Nicklas Bendtner missed out!

The two played together at Arsenal, with Fabianski choosing players from all the teams he has played for in his club and international career.

But while Bendtner - who plays for Norwegian side, Rosenborg - did get a mention, he failed to make the cut.

A laughing Fabianski told Soccer AM Online: "I don't know if it was a league game or something, he came on and with his first touch, he headed home a goal, so why not have him?

"He is a lot of fun, there are lots of interesting stories with Nicklas being in the team but I'm not going to pick him."

The goalkeeper instead chose a player from his Swansea days as the super sub, with many of his ultimate five-a-side squad coming from his time at Arsenal.

They include some good friends, one who fancies himself as the next Keith Richards or Slash and someone Fabianski describes as "the biggest professional I have ever met in my whole career".
