Okay, I want to start this week with offering a personal apology to anyone who transferred out Sophia Smith or Lynn Williams last week. If it makes you feel any better (and/or you prescribe to the theory that misery loves company), I removed Williams from the captain’s spot and removed Smith altogether. A further apology to anyone who followed my other advice and brought in Claire Emslie, who turned out to be a late scratch with a hip injury – we hope she’s back on the field soon!
So I’ll try to do a little better this week… we’re going to continue to discuss how to address the World Cup break and keep your FNWSL team rolling through the next few rounds. For a full list of NWSL players headed Down Under, check here! All World Cup players will likely be out this week, which begins Saturday afternoon in Seattle with a clash between Reign and Racing.
Which NWSL teams are losing the most points to the World Cup?
