Shearergol Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Owen lunching with Al Fayed before Ascot today. Maybe worth a punt, Owen hasn't got a lot of options available to him. Ah man he is just handing his brochure out by hand thas all. Hope not, Fulham finally going in the right direction for the 1st time in decades, that parasite would bleed em dry. You hope not? Are you a Fulham fan? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Fulham is a good shout, simply because Al Fayed is stupid enough to try and bring him in and Hodgson is one of the few who could get something out of him. Still it wouldn't surprise me if Benitez signed him on a smaller wage (surely he'd take the cut for Liverpool) in a Robbie Fowler esq signing. As for Dave Whelan.... knobhead (and yes i would have him as chairman). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

womblemaster Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 "I'm surprised that someone as astute as Alan Hansen is still touting him around. It's as simple as this - The type of player Owen is has no place in the modern game. The days of the 'poacher' are long gone. No team worth their salt can carry a poacher, because if they do, they're in effect a man down. All the top teams have an all round player as their centre forward, someone who can do it all, not just pop up in the right place at the right time. Who would you rather have in your team - a Didier Drogba type, who doesn't need the 'service' that Hansen alludes to, because he's perfectly capably of making his own goals, or Owen, an injury prone, slow striker, who can be taken care of with a man-marker? The only teams that will sign Owen are those whos manager still lives in the past. Unluckily for Owen, Bryan Robson and Peter Reid are no longer club manangers." interesting quote from beeb comments section. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leazes1986 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 How the mighty have fallen. Interesting quote: "Indeed his period under Kevin Keegan in 2008 was one of his happiest and most productive spells in football and he was within days of signing a contract which would have kept him at St James' Park for the rest of his career when Keegan left the club abruptly in early weeks of the 2009/09 season" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest helios_centric Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 You can see how annoyed he is with what he considers to be tabloid rumour-mongering. To go to those lengths to set the record straight, even at the risk of making himself look a right tit, definitely makes it look like he has a point to prove. Owen's problem looks to be that he probably isn't capable of proving his point and making anyone eat their words. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 There are a few interesting claims if you read between the lines that seem pretty fair to be honest: He was pissed about KK leaving and probably would have stayed. He blames his poor form on the club's medical staff. and he thinks we should have signed a creative midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 That book is hilarious!!! you look at his goals record for us and the statistic that according to Prozone "Michael was in the top 3 players for work rate and distance covered" for April.......yet he was still shit. totally anonymous. that screams "headless chicken" - because for all that running. not once did he trouble goalkeepers. some of those pages were uncomfortably cringeworthy though haha. what a joke!

Jayson Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 The points about needing a midfielder & him having to drop deep are sound & true. And its a solid point that we're probably the worst possible club any injury prone player could ever be at with our record. No doubt we've made it far worse rather than better. But the whole thing smacks of some serious serious desperation, i dont see that attracting anyone. He must be embarassed by this, talk about taking bad advice.
