Friedel, in my opinion, hasn't been as sound this year as in previous years, but is a great keeper. I will say that I would be more than happy toswitch Given and Howard if people demanded it. Dempsey has had a great season, been valuable in my fantasy team. But Danny Murphy has probably been more influential than him in the Fulham side and creates plenty of goals himself. Sorry, I think most people would pick Ireland ahead of him. to be fair, i did give props to schwarzer and howard! just my personal preference, i think Given is ace.

Or in Fellaini's case, suspended for yellow cards. Tim Howard has been the steadying hand on that team. And somebody had to save those PKs to get Everton into the FA Cup final. He is the MVP of that Everton team. I mentioned Friedel. Friedel should be considered. He's been excellent, and he's been missing Martin Laursen, without a doubt Villa's leader in the locker room, but not ahead of Howard due to Villa's recent form. Schwartzer definitely deserves consideration ahead of Given because Fulham would be in a relegation fight without him, but they're not in Europe... yet. Given hasn't elevated Man City at all since coming over from Newcastle. As for James... well, which David James will show up for Portsmouth in any given week? And if James is really that good, how come folks over there want Almunia to get UK citizenship and start for England?
