Initial Thoughts for the Week

It seems that the majority of clubs in the Prem are currently in flux. ManYoo is slowly getting players back (Ronaldo, Ruud, Heinze, and Rio so far) but the ones that have been playing seem to get worse and worse with each passing week. Liverpool seems to be headed in a better direction but both of their recent wins (WBA and Monoco) have been against questionable competition - so it remains to be seen if their progress is real. Chelsea can't seem to score. Newcastle has been a mess in the wake of their managerial change and showed signs of life against Blackburn - who have managerial disarray of their own which might be as responsible for any Houlieresque "corner turning" as anything happening right at the Toon. And on down the list - Birmingham can't score (again); Charlton, Everton, ManCiteh and Villa are hot one week and fantasy busts the next. So where does that leave us? In my eyes, it leaves us with the following general recommendations...

1) When in doubt, pick someone from Arsenal - at least we know they'll score
2) If not Arsenal, (and I can't believe I'm saying this) go with someone from 'Boro
3) Load up on guys playing against Fulham - especially when they're on the road
4) If Fulham are at home or you don't like anyone on the team playing them...those playing against Blackburn and Crystal Palace are the next best bet.

Look for the Match-ups of the Week tomorrow...
