wacko Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 For his World Cup ambitions, he'd honestly have more chance of going by scoring 20+ goals in the Championship for us than he would getting 8 goals for Hull.

How often do Championship players start for England? How often has someone like Michael Owen played in the Championship? Owen has absolutely no intention of staying with us and I'm surprised anyone thinks differently, his number 1 team (England) doesn't want him, so he has to hawk himself around the Premiership in order to be visible. The shame for Owen is that even if he scores 20 goals this next season (unlikely) and plays 75% of his games because he isn't injured (even more unlikely) he won't be picked because Capello wouldn't pick him even if Owen paid him. His loss of form this last season probably coincided with his realisation that his England career was on the wane or even finished, he's looked suitably depressed ever since. And he'll stay that way.

Guest Stephen927 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I'm hoping it all drags on and on for a couple of weeks after his contract here finishes, make him sweat a little bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 It'll be even more of a media wankfest if he were to go to Hull. They've lapped up the past 4 years saying how he's spiralled downwards since he joined us, but moving to 'lowly' Hull will just give them an extra bumper chapter. This time, however, we can laugh a little bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something about him joining an unattractive side simply to get his England career back on track, professional attitude, all the usual words associated with Michael Owen.

Guest toonlass Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Is he not gone yet? The £2 million "loyalty" bonus should tide him over while he hasn't got a club paying him mega bucks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you're saying, but there's got to be a bit of give and take. I mean, you could say that any of our players would look good if they had Rooney and Ronaldo creating chances for them, but that rarely happens in the real world. For us, Owen was a waste of time last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
