I hate to be the really sensible one here, but apart from the fact that I think Owen got managed really badly in this whole situation and found himself between a rock and a hard place. If you compare his situation to a normal every day job, often a move away to another company/place of work adds a lot of experience and perspective that allows you to achieve things that you never would have when you return to your original workplace had you not moved on for a bit.

I think we all agree that he has looked stale the last couple of seasons and he is still only 24 with a lot of football ahead of him. Whether he plays or not, the learning curve for him is really big and he'll do nothing other than continue to grow. Not being first choice for a change is a good leveller for him too.

There's another player that springs to mind who moved on, was accused of selling out and has seen his twilight years become some of his best.....Shearer.

If Owen could come back and knock in 20-30 goals a season until he is 35 for us, I don't think any of us would complain.

several journalists have it on good authority that michael owen's agent is already in the process of negotiating a deal back to the premiership in january. there's even talk of him ging to EVERTON ffs. :angry:

i can't see us taking him back at a higher price than what we sold him for. arsenal, manure and chelsea don't really need him.

i can't see it to be honest. ???

I think Owen may have realised that he has bit off more than he can chew. Also he should leave his agent feeling like a lolipop with a snooker cue up his a**e:O

provisional stands: 3 being apathetic; 3 repels; 3 contents; 3 supports; 4 being sympathetic; no one wants him soonly. Any more contribution?
