So is my granny mate. I'll have money with anyone who wants it that he will not paly the full season without being injured again.
good luck to him, always remember lads and lasses once they have pulled on the famous red jersey and done the business for the club then they deserve our respect....... remember the cup final v the arse classic owen
And then left at a drop of a hat and we went on to number 5 To Answer squirrel's question he still has that stricker instinct but lacks the pace that made him terrifying. Personally I would never want him in a red shirt again it would not be the same, I'd like to remember him at his best for us so adios Mickey
In hindsight Fowler coming back was not the same either they will never be the players they were and imo are best remembered at their best with us Robbie hardly sparkled when he came back one piece of brilliance against reading but it was not the wonder kid who tore the Mancs apart at Old Trafford thats the Robbie I want to remember
Couldn't agree more. The only way Robbie could have topped his previous cult status was if he scored the winner in Athens last May, but Rafa never picked him and you couldn't blame him. Years down the road all I'll remember of Robbie was the aforementioned OT Manc game, and the goals against Villa in the cup semi back in the mid 90's.
Owen is doing well, for his one true love england. Dont know if hed get in the team now ( i doubt it) but he was a great striker for us. The final v arsenal was classic
The only thing owen cares about is london f.c. He never cared about liverpool or madrid or newcastle.His main goal in life will be to win the world cup with engerland and lets not forget...3 goals in 2 matchs means feck all really.He's done nowt over the last few years and now the english press are wetting themselves over him.Let slur alex have him in january and lets all move on from this twat.
Exactly. A lot of people seem to forget just how good Owen was for us. Over 150 goals he got plus he won the cup almost single handedly in 2001.
have to agree one nil down two one up micheal owen won the cup he did his job when he put on his no 10 for us
The only thing Owen has proven over the past 2 seasons is how injury prone he is. Rafa has a certain type of player he likes and that is a hard worker. Owen at his peak for LFC never covered the ground that Torres, Kuyt and Vorinin cover and Rafa wouldnt tolerate his me, myself and I attitude. I have great respect for what Owen did at the club but he is past tense now, his love is England and that 49 goal record. He joined Newcastle, the trophy free zone, despite leaving us to win more things just to make sure he could play for England and that says all there is to know about the Owen of today.
He'll always score goals, he did for us. He'll always be a liability, he was for us. He can't play for the team the way Kuyt or Torres does, the team has to play to him. And if he doesn't score then the team is screwed. Don't forget all those years he was scoring 18 league goals there was nearly always 2/3 hattricks against lesser teams bumping up the stats! Good riddance Oh and the difference between he and Fowler is that Fowler didn't want to go and certainly didn't hold the club to ransom
