Karjala Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Personally i think he's past it too. No pace what so ever, and no finish any more. Yep if he's provided with chances he's bound to put some away, but he won't be a major force. Never scored 20 in the PL before, and certainly won't in the future. Pleased we have got rid, i'd have been pissed off if we'd stayed up and he got a new contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Seems like Owen to us is going to happen judging by how strong the rumours are. Can't say I'm too happy as I just don't see how he would fit into our team. I'd rather not drop one of Cahill/Yak/Fellaini to accommodate him & we haven't got the players for a midfield 4 regardless. And the fact he is aboslute f***ing dogshit. If he joins everton he'll score, lots. Can't see it. He is s***, finished. w***. Come on, realistically. Only last season he got 7 in his last 9. Before christmas this season he went on a run of scoring also. like 6 in 9 games or something, that doesnt suddenly dissapear. Looked useless after christmas granted, but so did everyone bar vidukas one game v boro. He can't even run, unless he has a shearer-esque revitalisation I just can't see it.. just ignore him, nufc fan my arse, still hero worshiping the little scumbag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Without starting a pyramid Madras I would say the time for Adams to show he was a leader was when David Batty is offering to take a penalty. Or Gareth Southgate. In fact did he ever step up to the mark and take the responsibility for taking a penalty himself? so he wasn't a leader throughout his international career cos he didn't take a penalty ? and i would have both batty and southgate up before adams. Why? Batty had never taken a penalty before that miss in 1998 yet he still showed more leadership qualities in doing so than Adams, who was hiding in the centre circle at the time. Again it's back to 'lead by example' because he had more ball skill than adams.......i'd rather beye than bassong take a penalty type thing. also that one incident means he wasn't a leader throughout his time as an international ?

Leazes1986 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 If Michael Owen and Ashley are amongst the first people out of the club this summer then it would feel like a huge amount of filth and posion have been removed from the club. Getting rid of Ashley and Owen, Viduka, Geremi, Cacapa, Barton and Smith's huge wages would be one massive health boost for the club if it is possible.

Guest JS Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 And back to the original topic Its strange to see the original quotes again, but surely people know now he wont stay with us in the CCC, i remember his interview regarding the speculation of his contract, kept looking at the floor saying he will wait and see Will he be a good player in another premiership team? Im gonna have to say no. Hes a spent force with too many previous injurys, I cant see him reinventing himself like Shearer did Have no idea where he will go now though Could see him being half decent in the SPL with somebody like Celtic. At least he would have a canny crack at European football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least he would have a canny crack at European football Whats the difference of when he was scoring the start of this season and form suddenly dips post Christmas? Firstly, the chances created were abysmal. Secondly, he knew he was leaving wanted to avoid injuries, went through matches without looking like he gave a fuck. He will be a good addition to anyone in Premiership if he at least halves his wages and joins a team who create chances and a mobile midfield that creates space.

Dave Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I don't give a flying fuck how Owen does once he leaves. If he goes to Everton and scores loads then good for him and good for them but so what. We're not even in that league any more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Only twice in his whole Premiership career has he missed 10 games or more (unluckily for us it was his first two here like). Surprised at that tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest toonlass Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I can confidently say he will go to Everton, get crocked a week before the season begins, come back, score 2, get injured again, get to just about ready to start again, break down in training, come back, score 3 and then knacker himself for the end of the season. So long Michael son. You've been shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
