Harry Carry It's a shame Michael Owen has Liverpool syndrome. Just because you were good once, doesn't mean you're good now.
They are quite good though?

TBM Not saying he didn't do well and he did score a lot of goals but was on the bench a fair bit - he would have been better (from an English point of view) staying in the Premiership with one of the top 4 clubs.....

papereyesSilver Foxpapereyes United have Rooney, Ronaldo and Tevez who can all play in a range of roles.
Is that right?
In the context of what I wrote. yes. definitely.
To be fair, I was expecting it to be frimmers or LUX to be the one to try to pick an arbitary and, essentially, pointless hole in my post so you win ... err ... a .

papereyesTBMThaumagurist* I don't know why people are laughing at Owen. I think it's a great crying shame that a brilliant England striker (one who scored a hat-trick against Germany, no less) is having problems these days.
Worst thing he did was join Real Madrid
Really?

At the time, I thought it would be good for his footballing education to play some football abroad....

In theory yes but not at Real Madrid where he was never going to be a first choice. Totally stalled his career just at the time he should have been coming to to his peak, the injuries since then have just made the situation worse.

I liked him too, until he became a gambling addict and money became more important that his football.

Handsome Man The doctor listing the players he has treated seems to damn him quite badly: Kieron Dyer, Dean Aston, Craig Bellamy, etc. All injury-prone and expensive occupiers of the treatment table.
Strikers can lose it very quickly and drop from international or premiership quality to nothing when they hit get near to 30. We have seem Kluivert, Shevchenko and Fowler turn to shit almost overnight in the premiership. Owen looks like another one of them.
