Owen was class for us but always amazes me how he gets in on these things. Surely he waived all rights to be part of this...yet there he is, again.
Him aside, should be a good match, shame we can’t rewind the age clock and get a load of them back again.
I don't mind Owen getting involved in these things. I really don't harbour any ill feeling towards Michael really...well not now at least! Him leaving for Real Madrid for a pittance and not giving Rafa a chance was probably the worst thing he did in his career (and he'd probably be the first to admit) as opposed to joining the Mancs in what was, let's be honest, the winter of his career. I guess it's easy for me to say that given that I idolised him growing up (I even watched England matches to see him and Gerrard score!) so admittedly my easy going attitude on Owen probably stems from that more than anything.
Regardless, a damn fine player he was. A wonderful natural finisher and his cool mentality in big games is something a lot of our players today (and with England) could learn from.
