Funny how people say stuff like this about ultimately quite forgettable players when the likes of Owen and Sissoko existed. Certainly the former anyway.
Listen, I certainly don't want to give Owen any praise, but he did break his leg or whatever trying to score for us. Obertan was as weak as they come, though. He'd pull out of challenges, just let players run by him and put up not fight. Remember him against Arsenal in our 5th season? He was absolutely pathetic that day and it summed up his entire career for us.
