Go on Mickey boy! He'll bang in a few for Man U next season. Good piece of business there for Sir Alex.
-
questionable signing. he's only had 26 goals in the past 4 seasons. very injury prone as well.
-
I think he'll do well in man u, I think they're style of play matches him
he's 29, he's got a lot to show

he's basically got to make up for the past few years with newcastle. he was also only average on madrid.

no guaranteed money
he'll have to show up and perform or no money

Michael Owen is undergoing a medical ahead of his proposed free transfer to Manchester United.
Sky Sports News reports that Owen has arrived at United's Carrington training ground for the start of what is likely to be a day-long examination.
Due to his wretched injury record, Owen's medical is likely to be more rigorous and stringent than is the normal. The channel has speculated that United have already carried out checks on the knee that Owen injured at the 2006 World Cup on Thursday and his medical will conclude with a full medical check-up at a Manchester hospital.
However, their report from Carrington concluded with the categorical statement: "This is a move that is definitely on."

so they're examining his fitness or if he could cope with man u?
and that last sentence, does that mean the deal's done? :dontknow:

owen has been a good player every season that he has been fit or played. he actually played very well at real, but for reasons outside of ability he found himself on the bench behind ronaldo and raul. he actually was real's second leading scorer during the time. his only true problem is that he can never play a season without getting injured. he has shown good form for newcastle when he was fit. if he plays for united he willl be successful, because they have the players to put him in scoring oppurtunities. the only other thing i have to say about this, is that he is going to have to be careful about getting killed by some crazy scouse if he plays for them. I don't think i or any other liverpool fan could forgive him for playing for them.

At first I thought AF had lost it, but if he's going to play well for anyone, itll be for AF, he wont dare feign an injury now lol

Haha, probably the stupidest comment I've ever read.
1. He's one of the all time leading scorers in the Premiership
2. He's scored 40 goals for England and is one of the leading scorers in our international history
3. He's not a waste of money, he was free....he's on a basic wage salary, he has to play and score to get paid well.
If having someone with over 200 goals in a footballing career at the highest level is a flop, then fuck me, I'd take that career anyday. The only reasons he's been shit the past few seasons is because he's had a ridiculous amount of injuries, he's been playing in a team that nobody had the drive to succeed. But yet he's still managed to score in every 1 in 2.5 games or something. And the fact that Sir Alex Ferguson, the greatest manager ever in English football has wanted to bring him in, hardly shows that Michael Owen is a flop.

I was born down here in the south but my family is from Burnley so they brought me up as a claret.

oh
still i doubt he will make a big impact

Don't like United much but it would be nice to see Owen back in form. Owen coming off the bench will be nice for United if, and that's a big if, he can stay healthy.
Owen + Hargreaves might = 2 full matches played throughout the season.
Plaxico, how is he not guaranteed to make money? Didn't he sign a 2 year contract?

pay-per play iirc

I reckon Owen for for Golden Boot this season. City to win the Carling Cup and Ronaldo to walk off scryking at least once over at Madrid.
Discuss. :thumbsup:
