Re: Is Owen playing at Anfield
disappointed in myself for reading this thread
i have absolutely no interest in what went on at a testimonial at anfield for carragher, and even less interest in what a footballer sitting on a fence said to a football reporter with nothing better to do testimonials are a human side of football. get the £#%&! over it. imagine some of you booed maradona at OT tbh. |

03/04 we had a poor side and constant use of 4-5-1 didnt suit him or us 04/05 he he hardly played and we didnt play great football and finished 3rd then so cant blame him 05/06 he still started nearly half the games and appeared in most of the others after the liverpool game when we actually started playing well, hardly an exclusion. smith however, o'shea came in and did a better job than he did in the middle |

He was then rushed back for the AC Milan games in some mad act of panic by Fergie - he was obviously still far from fully fit and the team, utterly predictably, bombed. We were then pretty much total shite for the rest of that term (indeed, until the turn of the year) That Milan fiasco was the beginning of the end for him here, really |

The real point, though, is that he was brought back in to the team before he was ready - and badly disrupted a side that was playing their best stuff for a while at that point |

It didn't suit us as we didn't have the personnel but it suited him down to the ground as he was the focal point of virtually every attack. His scoring record wouldn't have been impressive if it wasn't for 4-5-1. He was the main man that every @#%&! was supplying so he got plenty of chances which due to his finishing were converted, different formation less chances, less goals. The one person that did well out of our shit play whilst learning thw 4-5-1 was Ruud tbf. Didn't suit him? |

he was strong but he wasnt suited to being used as a target man on his own, just because he was decent at finding space in the box and clinical despite being a lone striker with more attention just paid to him doesnt mean we got the best out of him and the team playing that way. yeh he was the only guy who was getting supply but would it not have been more benefit for him for constantly playing with somewhere near him for him to have more space and be a less predictable yeh because hes played 4-5-1 everywhere hes played thats why his record is so good. |

The home players and crowd celebrating like they had won the WC made it worse, as ever. Still got relegated, though |
