Now that Zusi has fallen from the place of “golden captain” I actually found picking one a bit more fun this week. Yeah, perhaps that crazy, but it was like a flood gate of options were opened up and I think we have a few good options.

Keep reading to see who our picks are.

Options

Landon Donovan

The big point getter from last week. It was a big relief for many to see him not get a call to the USMNT. With Keane still around, there is always a chance for more points.

With the connections that Landon and Keance were making last week, it’s hard to not have him on this list too, and for similar reasons.

A little hit or miss, but with Columbus suffering from some defensive losses, this could be a good chance for him to shine for a home crowd. HE did not play at NE so he has 2 goals in 2 games.

I can’t figure out how Morales only got 1 assist in the thumping they gave Chivas last week, but he’s been playing well the last few games and, well, Chicago.

A little hit and miss after scoring his two PKs, but he’s grabbed a goal in the last two games and DC is not exactly known for winning. He’s got as good a shot as any.

He’ll be leaving soon, but the current DC form makes a goal from Wallace seem possible and a nice bonus from a clean sheet.

Still good enough to make our list, Zusi is in for a hard game against Houston. He got some good points last week from bonus points, but goals are always nice. Collin may be the better SKC choice this week.

Top 3

Javier Morales

His form, his matchup, and a home game make him out top choice this week.

You have to respect the connect he and Keane have, but I think a lot of those points came from a HUGE breakdown in the Philly defense last week. Seattle should be stronger.

I’m still unsure about Henry, but this pick is more about the Columbus defensive problems this week. Henry is always hungry to score so he has a good chance to capitalize.

Runner-up

Rodney Wallace

Wallace is a nice little differential pick this week, especially is DC stay with their current form.

So who do you think is a must have? Vote now and let everyone know.
