Michael Owen
Anybody else think since the wolfsburg game he's struggled for any form?
Played 18 times for us this season and scored 4 goals, he's had plenty of chances on the pitch but really not firing at all. The honeymoon period is over, yes he scored that goal vs City but other than that he's not impressed at all, and as a backup striker he's a major worry for us because imo he's simply not good enough. |

Your right regarding others players, problem is Owen is not a good footballer, rather predictable and defenders know what he's generally going to do. Last night he literally did not touch the ball or get involved in our play for 75% of the time he was on. As i've said, it's a £#%&!ing good job he scored against City because that goal bought him time but so far he's proven to be what many thought he would be...a disaster |

Worrying thing about Owen is that he still manages to get in the right positions, he just can't finish for shit anymore.
The amount of 1 on 1s he's missed is pretty incredible for a 'natural goalscorer'. I'm still hoping he'll come good but it's like the Shevchenko thing, he looks totally burned out. |

If he hadn't scored that goal against city he'd be getting destroyed by now.
He just doesn't look fit and doesn't look like getting fit to me. I've never been a big michael owen fan, always thought he was all about pace, no great tecnique or build up play. No he has no pace he is extremely average |

cost us nowt, and hes an "option" from the bench.....but he doesnt excite when you see him coming off the bench and by default, he doesnt scare defenders either |

Owen for me offers nothing, thought he was really poor Saturday aswell and looked tired after 70minutes, simply not good enough for us. As a 4th choice striker maybe, but when things are not going our way the thought of him being our backup is concering. |

Kiko would of got more, not only does he get in the positions but he drops deep, out wide and brings other players into the game, he gets stuck in and deserves a chance. |
