Owen to United...??

Soooo Sir Alex wanted to sign the lad as a teenager.... but as we all know he went to Liverpool where I loved him like a brother until he made his trip to Spain, our relationship ended soon after. Sir Alex finally gets his wish, though he's not a teenager, Michael still has all the potential in the world. But there's only one question to be asked... Can Sir Alex get him out of that funk?

I think the answer's simple.... No... There is no question that if Owen plays he will score goals. To be honest I think he'll fall into a supporting roll where Rooney (who I predict to explode this year) will take a lot of the cake. Also, Berba's there so if he doesn't play well he could fall into a supporting roll, and then there's one of my favorite up and coming players Dannnnnnny Welbeck. Welbeck being the 18yr old stud he his should be looking to get more PT and that will surely take away from Mr. Owen.

There are however, the intangibles that Owen possesses. He has played for some of the best teams in the world (Liverpool, Real Madrid). He has won the FA cup where he scored both goals against Arsenal in a 2-1 victory. His finest moment was when he took the European Player of the Year award in 2001. Owen will have the potential to score goals but the fact of the matter is that he's taken on too many injuries and I don't think he can come out of this terrible funk. But I guess its in Sir Alex's hands now

Personally, I hope he sucks and United fall to 5th this season while Liverpool win the title!!!

YNWA!

Here's a long video....
