Michael Owen set to leave United
James Robson
December 28, 2010
Aston Villa could be a likely destination for Michael Owen when he leaves Old Trafford
Michael Owen is set to be shown the door at Old Trafford. The former England international could have his United career brought to an end as early as next month – or at the end of the season.

Owen has been pushed towards the exit by the red hot form of Dimitar Berbatov and Mexican sensation Javier Hernandez.

With Federico Macheda tipped for big things by Sir Alex Ferguson and Danny Welbeck set to return from a season-long loan at Sunderland in the summer, Owen has finally had to accept that his Old Trafford career is over.

United will listen to offers in the January transfer window, with Aston Villa manager Gerard Houllier likely to be at the head of the queue for the player he had at Liverpool.

Ferguson believed Owen’s experience could prove crucial to his strike force when signing him in a controversial deal two summers ago.

That proved to be the case with the former Real Madrid and Newcastle hitman scoring vital goals against City and in the Carling Cup final last season.

But with Berbatov finally finding consistency and Hernandez’s stunning introduction to the Premier League since his arrival in the summer, Owen’s opportunities have all but dried up.

Ferguson has traditionally operated with a pool of four strikers but currently has five at club, with Welbeck set to return.

Even Berbatov had to settle for a place on the bench when United beat Arsenal at the start of the month – only emphasising how fierce the competition is for starting places up front.

fcuk off to your horses you little welsh midget

[babbsnads]

He's consistently made bad career decisions since he left us. If you throw in his injury record I think you've have to say his career hasn't got anywhere near the heights it should have. Although I do think he was a great player for us he always seemed to be playing for himself more than the shirt so I don't have any sympathy for him.

[Terry Conlon]

For the 5mins he spent with the scum, he has ruined a great legacy with LFC. As far as I am concerned he is dead! Good riddens you little judas cnut! What goes around comes around, you might get a move to QPR.

[CrazyHorse]

He's at St. Andrews tonight.... for talks perhaps?

Could it be Brum he ends up with?

[masterbenji]

I have one mate who has supported LFC all his life and he is the only lad I know that would take Owen back

Unfortunatley I know at least 3 people who would have him back

I think he'l end up reunited with Ged and Heskey at Villa myself.

[click22]

Just thinking of all the jeresy i use to get his name on the back of when i was a kid.

[locallad]

He's a little judas.

[stamullenredmen]

even getting away from the fact he signed for them why would you want him back.hes obviously commanded big wages at madrid newcastle and man ure so hed be looking a big wage.hes done nothing to justify any wage hes picked up since he left us unless ya want to pay him for being injured.thinking back now the only thing he probably done of note since he left was that winner against city in the 45th minute of injury time last season

[MutantNinjaSkrtel]

Owen,Heskey and Djib all playing under Ged by Feb 1st?;)

[The beard]

Owen,Heskey and Djib all playing under Ged by Feb 1st?;)

Not if their results keep going the way they are

Le Tallec and Sinama could be available also :D:D

[LUCAN RED]

Let him go to Villa and good luck to him in the Championship next year. Fcukin Judas!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad:

[ISTANBUL VET]

Its a disgrace that Utd didn't play him--ruined his English career:D

[LUCAN RED]

His greed ruined his career,hungry little punk!!!

[Ron1892]

For me Owen always thought about Himself and not about Us reds, England been a prime example of that, and altogether he scored us many a important goal, i dont think he'll ever command, or deserve the respect players like God, Carra will get, so i dont particularly care where he ends up as he always seems to out do himself in where he chooses to go..

[Maverick]

Did he ever play for us?Always seemed to think of himself.Very disappointing how he ended up but thats what happens when you make consistently bad decisions.

It does seem like a long time ago. His 1st bad decision was leaving us the summner before we won the CL .... I bet he was bullin, not that we won but that he left.

Then moving from the bench at RealM, hammers well rested, playing in only about 30 games a year to Newcastle and a releation dog fight, who will play him in every rough game ... what an agent he had!!

He lost any respect I had for him, as it turns out, when he was telling us all lies, live on Sky Sports in January 2004

[glen]

good enough for him id say the only place for him to go is down but you cant get much lower than the mancs

[kopgod]

Fcuk him the little judas cnut!!

[Garrett]

As mentioned above, he only cares about himself ....

I laughed my arse off when he left LFC and next thing, his former team mates were collecting CL winners medals ....

Don't care where he ends up, as long as it goes sh1te for him and it's not at LFC.

The Manager informed me after our testimonial match on Tuesday that the club would not be offering me a new contract.

michael owen ‏@themichaelowen
I have loved every minute of the 3 years I have spent at such a fantastic club.

[GaryMc]

Can concentrate on the horses now

[glen]

They must have a great treatment room if he loved every minute of his time there

[NiallD]

Little judas cnut would get injured pointing at this stage.He basically went to the scum for 3 years physio.

wee pr1ck

[ROCCO]

Just seen him on SSN trying to sell himself to another premierleague club then sky cut him off in the middle of his sales pitch

LOL

Seen that alright was Quiet funny....He'll end up at a promoted side i think.

[Kop On]

The irony is he is exactly the type of player we were missing last season. He doesn't have the pace anymore but he still has the finish, he'd have scored a hat load for us this season I think (as long as he was fit).

I don't want him at our club, it's just ironic that he was unused at the scum and could have been a super sub for us.

Poor decision making Michael.

[D-Red]

United will listen to offers in the January transfer window

You mean they're going to charge somebody for him?

[elvis]

THat post is from 2010 gary ;)

:D thank fcuk for that! Thought the world had gone mad!

[Niall]

I wouldn't be at all shocked to see him end up at Everton.

[Pimboli]

Apart from his winner against City I cant remember him doing one thing of note in 3 years with the Mancs other than probably improving his handicap on the golf course when the rest of the side was playing.

Further proof, like we need it, that there is no such thing as a free transfer.

[miked]

Well at least the fcuker wont be doing those Aon ads anymore, smug little prick face.

[mascherIANO]

Id say he regrets spoiling his anfield legacy for greed. id say he has a lot of regrets.

once a manc never a red

[MCLOCO]

I have one mate who has supported LFC all his life and he is the only lad I know that would take Owen back i personally wouldnt take him back solely on the fact that hes not good anymore but his choice to play for the skum doesnt make him a bad person in all honesty he was on his way out of the premier league and he was handed an opportunity to play for one of the top teams in the league anybody who says they wouldnt jump right on that one is a damn liar!!!

[honald_tdb]

Did he qualify to get pl winners medal last year?

[Beanokelly]

At first though I was thinking the little runt would end up at Leeds but he'l deffo be the blooshite's big summer signing this summer

[Carroll9]

If Martinez gets the job he could be one of his first signings.:(

[gruffalo]

Championship is calling! :D

Where were you in Instanbul??:D

[Clerk]

He's a prick as far as I am concerned. Joining the scum and all those shitty comments he comes out with about 3 Years at a brilliant club. He's really pissed me right off him.

[clayton]

do what you are good at michael, buying race horses and sending them to tom dascombe... wait, he's not very successful at that either... Sap

[rushiekop]

Heard reports he's injured again.....the door hit him on the way out.

[edcarroll02]

3 Pages on that little rat, I'm disappointed! The news barely registered with me when I read it, haven't thought about that guy in a very long time!
