Albright, Klein in front of him, Becks in the middle with Landon floating around underneath the strikers (what strikers? Yeah, I know. We can always hope). Is there such a thing as a target forward who is also really quick? Because that would be the perfect complement. Ahh, but can you just imagine the right side of the field?

And I don't think it was Yallop who wanted to trade him, but we'll never know. It was at the start of the major "Oh my dear Lord, Beckham's coming and we suck!" trading frenzy. I think it was supposed to be Nate Jaqua and Albright out in exchange for Carlos Ruiz, (blech! blech!) but I'm too lazy to go back and research it. :-) It was the week before he got injured — I think the injury was what scotched the trade.

Not becaue he got injured so early in the season. I thought that was not allowed. Or is it waiving injured players thats just not allowed? Ugh. Why did Yallop wnat to trade Albright?

It's worth more to trade a player with a contract with good terms in place than a player that needs to negotiate (a player with expensive terms not so much). Plus Yallop wanted to trade him, who knows with Gullit & Cobi?
