Lets see how Baros & Cisse perform against spurs before discussing if Owen's departure hurts us or not.
Personally, i am not shedding a tear over Owen leaving because no doubt in my mind, he would have some clause in his contract to play every game if he had signed it. This will hurt Baros a lot, because what i see in him is a raw diamond. IF RB polishes up his game a little, Baros would become a world-class striker.
I am also not sure how Owen & Cisse will gel in the pitch seeing how Owen likes to play with a striker who does the dirty work for him.
Even the best striker we ever had, Ian Rush found it difficult to play for juventus. And he was their prime striker then. In Real Madrid, Owen has to fight with Ronaldo, Rual & Morientas for a striker role, how is he going to fare there ?
To all those who mentioned before that Owen will score loads of goals if he was playing for manure or arsenal, lets just see how many goals he does score for real madrid taking into consideration their supply line (zidane, Figo, Beckham)
