Fantasy Football Week 8

This is my team for Week 8. Del Horno's injured!

Michael Owen
A tad expensive, but he has a good chance against Pompey. No other striker really stands out for that price.
No other striker really sits out for that price. Last-minute dead leg.

Robin van Persie
Brum have only 13 fit players, with Butt and Melchiot missing, Arsenal should win comfortably. Replaces Harewood.
Close one there. Came on and scored. Remains to be seen will change it to an OG.

Darren Bent
Keeping faith with him. Has a home match.
Had doubts but he poached two.

Frederik Ljungberg
Arsenal's my hope this week.
Decent total, but thought he'd be mroe involved than 10 pts.

Dean Whitehead
Cheap and good! Home game against the Hammers.
Phooey. Should've bought Tommy Miller instead.

Michael Essien
His defensive stats are astounding! Getting him for this in an expected 0-0 draw. Replaces Arca.
Spot on with his defensive prowess. 8.5 pts from that alone. Who knows if he'd tried a shot or two?

Jose Antonio Reyes
Hope he repays me for my faith in him.
6 SOTs and no goals? Only and Arsenal striker could do that. He'd be top scorer by a mile had he done that, but I'll settle for him being MY top scorer.

Lee Young-Pyo
Why am I keeping him? Don't expect the clean sheet, but the attacking stats might make up for it.
Where was he?

Chris Powell
Replaces Carragher. Cheaper mah.
Poor performance from all my defenders this week.

Nigel Reo-Coker
Still doing OK.
Poor performance from all my defenders this week.

Jens Lehmann
Chance of clean sheet with Campbell back. Also Brum are a long ball team.
14 pts through little effort. Teams really need to test him.
