Im sick to death of the papers linking us with strikers. Owens not going anywhere as his family is settled up here, non of the big four want him and no one else can match the terms of his contract (or will be prepared to given his injury record). Martins isnt going anywhere, the papers have been trying to link him back to Italy based on absolutly no evidence, there has been nothing in the Italian press just the deluded rambling of Alan freaking Oliver who has very large chip on his sholder when it comes to all things Obafemi Martins. Why the hell are people getting so worried his clause? Its £13/14m ffs! Anyone who pays that sort of money for him is monumentally stupid, he's a decent enough player but he has far too many rough edges to his game to warrant a price tag of that size, maybe he could bump his value up near that in the future if he can learn about movement off the ball (just sit him down with Owen and Alan and let them explain about how to make things a whole lot easier by just being in the right place), his first touch needs to be improved and his style of play needs to stop being so god damn reactionary - if he anticipated balls he could exploit his pace to devastating effect but most of the time he waits until the ball is already over his head before realising he needs to start running thus letting defenders get a few yards on him before he hit top gear. At this moment in time his actual value is around £7-8m, no more no less.
