...take II. Hopefully, this one will actually make it to the servers. Welcome to the (probably too) well documented B Team weekend where we're left with a lot of options that we normally wouldn't consider unless we were strapped for money at the beginning of the season. For all those of you who missed, or couldn't make it all the way through, the previous posting. No Arsenal, No Chelsea, No ManYoo, No Everton, No Boro, No Newcastle, No Ryan Nelson (err, Blackburn), and No West Brom this weekend. And, on the MLS side, no LA Galaxy and no New England. So what to do, what to do?
Here's my take on both...
EPL
Strikers
Yakubu - its that time of year...
Dean Ashton - Hard not to take him since I'm driving his bandwagon
Defoe - The safe play although he seems bound for ManYoo based on the correlation of his fantasy ineptness and me putting him in the line-up
Midfielders
Camara - Like Yakubu, he seems to come on at the end of seasons (pushing for a new club/contract?)
Pennant - Still waiting for the breakout week but he's one of only a few even capable of big things playing this weekend
Solano - Worthy of consideration even when the big guys are playing, one of the few no-brainers
Garcia - Having a hard time deciding between him and the newly healthy SWP and Berger - I'll probably go back and forth between the three of them all day.
Defenders
Olaf Mellberg - can we say crapshoot
Matt Upson - Since I can't feature any Arsenal guys, I'm going with once (Upson and Pennant) and future (Ashton) Arsenal guys this weekend - you got a better system?
J Lloyd Samuel - he has his moments and that's about all you can hope for this weekend
Keeper
David James - just a hunch, can't really justify it but I couldn't really justify anyone playing this weekend.
MLS
Strikers
Eddie Johnson, Buddle, Cerritos
Midfielders
Mulrooney, Davis, Cuadros
Defenders
Albright, Parkhurst, Boswell, Freeman
Keeper
Garlick
