Back on topic Michael Owen I'm not going to get drawn into this debate calling him a Judas etc, every one in life deserves a second chance (excluding Paedo's). Owen for me included. On merit of his goal scoring record the answer has to be yes. but on merit of his injury record the answer has to be No and this out weighs all the goals he has scored and my adulation for him as a former player.
Whats the point of having a back up striker who is more likely to spend as much time on the treatment table as Degen. The most likely scenario for me is when we need him most (If Torres was to get injured) is he will be on the treatment table most likely ruled out for half the season, then he's obviously of no use to us to do the job he was employed to do.
Now I am not going to pretend there is no chance a back up striker would get injured as its possible he would ffs Aurelio got ruled out until Christmas playing in the garden with kids. What I will say though is Owen carries a great risk to our title ambitions if employed as a back up striker as he carries an injury record as long as Robert Wadlow's right leg and the risk is greater of him not being able to provide cover when required. So why not look for a better alternative some one who may not be as clinical as Owen but some one who has a better injury record and can still get goals ?
