Owen... Yes? No?
Liverpool Echo reported today that MO is desperate to make a sensational return to Liverpool. Owen had not been able to break into Real Madrid's first team eversince his £8m move last summer. Although Owen did came on to score the winner for Madrid in several occasions, this is not enough to see him replace Raul and Ronaldo in the starting line-up. With Real Madrid looking highly likely to sign Robinho from Santos, Owen's chance to start a game for Madrid looked even more unlikely to happen. And he will still remain the fourth choice striker. If he still wants to play in the England jersey, he'll have to move in search of first team football. The best way out is to return to his own country, back to his beloved club where he used to score an average of 20goals/season.
Seriously, do you want Owen back? The man who went in pursuit of glories, leaving his club in lurch when they need him most?
I dunno. My head says yes but my heart says no. I don't want to see this glory-seeker cum traitor cum attention-seeker back in the club. I'll never forget how he walked out of us. I'll never forget how he played all of us out by saying he'll sign the contract only to see him sign for Real Madrid in the end. I'll never forget how Real Madrid made a fool out of us by paying us a miserable £8m and forcing us to take in Nunez.
But on the other hand, our strikeforce will improve greatly if he comes back. 20 goals/season is no problem for Owen because he is so familiar with the league and with our powerful midfield combination of Alonso and Gerrard, Owen will definately get better services. Honestly speaking, I rather see an experience Owen back than to pay £8m for one-season-wonder Crouch.
