Ronaldo Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Ferguson has an ego the size of South America. He'll probably think there's a chance that working with him every day will bring out the Owen of 5 years ago, a very dangerous striker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmael Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Capello will keep his reasons for not selecting Owen away from the media hype. But he's said that it's all about fitness and form. How any striker of Owen's nature could show any form in our team is beyond questionable. Certainly didn't maintain a solid level of fitness either.

He'll probably think there's a chance that working with him every day will bring out the Owen of 5 years ago, a very dangerous striker and with good cause. Wouldn't expect Owen to recapture 5 years ago, but definitely if he maintains some vein of fitness score a few goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp40 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Fergusson, always has 5-6 goal getters in his teams, ,... thats why he wins things, he obviously thinks Owen can still score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 it's something that the media has always overlooked, Post-1998 he's let England down badly in the tournaments I honestly don't know how he does it, his reputation is an absolute sham Must have missed his goal against Brazil in the World Cup Quarter Final in 2002 did you? I wish him every success in the world and i do not blame him one bit for what happened in his 4 years with us. He still had a good goals to games record for us and at times last season worked his stots off and was far and away our best player in some games while being constantly starved of service by our s*** awful midfield. why are you bringing that up? One goal doesn't change the fact that he let us down. His record post-1998 is 4 goals in 16 games in the tournaments, pathetic How is 8 goals in 28 games a good goals to games record btw? Seriously When has he ever let us or England down?? Would Shearer, RVN, Andy Cole, Marco van Basten etc etc have scored goals for us last season given the s*** service from our crap midfield?? I think Not! Is this a wind up? It's working. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Fair play to him managing to get a deal there. Still won't respect his complete lack of effort for us though. PS: He'll be back in the England squad straight away even if he barely plays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so sure Raul should be in the Real team anymore / for much longer, he is there because he is a fan favourite (for good reason of course). But either way, he isn't a moocher like Pippo/Owen/Ruud. That may just be the only way his legs can take it nowadays, I dunno Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcmk Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 18 Raul Real Madrid Spain Scored 18 goals last season, is that bad? Well Owen scored 8 was it? In a team that was relegated and created 3 times less chances at the very least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
2sheds Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I think Fergie would have outbid Liverpools £3million offer for Shearer they made when Bobby was here if we'd let him go. Fergie has always loved his strikers and I think Owen will at the very least score more for Man U than Berbatov will. He'll probably score a boat load for them tho As for Owen I don't blame him for the wages he's received from us - no one in their right mind would have told Fat Fred to cut it to £50K a week. His big crime for me is his role as so called club captain when (as Dave has rightly pointed out) he should have issued some statement to the fans after relegation. A ludicrous decision to sign him was followed by an ever stupider decision to make this guy club captain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Clearly not a wind up. He's pointing out how weak our creative department was last year. The same creative department that allowed a Danish journeyman to outscore our supposed superstar? Owen is washed up as a player and a pathetic weasel of a man. But most importantly, he's gone. Fuck off Michael. And if God is kind, Vidic will break both of your legs in the first training session. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
