Man Utd Signs Michael Owen

Arh.... Surprise surprise!

Owen goes to Man Utd. =P

My views? I love it.....
Okok, I know his nowadays more popular to be injured than scoring goals, and his less feared compared to his earlier days, but how good does it get to sign a proven goalscoring striker for FREE???

He may not be the regular like he used to during his Liverpool days and maybe he may not score as many goals as well, but his experience and skills will certainly still be good. What more, he is a 3rd striker anyway. If he produces the same impact as how Teddy Sheringham did during his MU days, thats good enough.

See the transfer market is closing soon and Fergie needs more time to scout for younger prospects rather than simply buying some and ending up like what happened with kleberson... Djemba-Djemba and co.... So bringing in Michael Owen for Free to buy himself a couple more years to find a good prospect is a good move. Furthermore, Owen may find himself performing better around a group of better players. Rather then getting disappointed about how he fails to see the ball often thanks to crappy passing from the Newcastle Midfielders, he only need to worry about how he can find the net now!

In addition, it also gives players like Welbeck and Macheda a chance to prove themselfs. I am particularly excited about Macheda's development! I'm sure he will be better then Guiseppe Rossi considering the impact he has made in the first team VS the one Rossi did last time.

Whats best, if Owen really does not perform, how much does Man Utd lose?? Just a few hundred thousand pounds to a few million at max? There's always the December transfer window... =P

So.. after signing Owen for free... we've still got a lot of transfer funds left... I wonder if a Keeper is coming in as well?? hmph....

I am excited to see how Fergie can bring back the life in Owen. I'm sure he hasn't lost his finishing touch!
