So he went there for the money, not sure why he's complaining then as he surely wasn't that desperate for more £££££s 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted 3 September 2019 Share Posted 3 September 2019 I think the feeling towards Michael Owen from Newcastle fans will be mutual, he was an expensive, injury prone flop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanSP Posted 3 September 2019 Share Posted 3 September 2019 Owen's a ****. Questions loyalty of a player who stuck with Newcastle for years as opposed to himself that fancied a move to Utd having played for Liverpool so many years. Oh, and Owen has shit facial hair so his opinion is devalued... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously that isn't going to happen though, or they wouldn't be talking about reversing our change. As you say it'd be better for everyone to align. I'm not sure why the other leagues are hard to convince? It's an obvious benefit to have the window closed before the first set of fixtures. I HATE the window being open while matches are still ongoing, particularly at the start of the season. Everyone should be talking about the actual games, but they're just focused on transfers. Also, it provides yet another advantage to the big clubs. They've got big enough squads to not be unsettled by incomings and outgoings, but imagine how different our start might of been if we'd been still dealing with the Maguire business until now!? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"They believe their club is 10% bigger and their team is 10% better than it actually is. Quote "This kind of blind delusion is especially true of Newcastle United - which, as I reach for the nearest tin hat, is only a big club in the sense that it has a lot of fans and a big stadium." ... it's so true. They fall in that "we think we're a big club" category. Heroic comments. Edited 3 September 2019 by Fox92 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Bear Posted 3 September 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 3 September 2019 There's been a bit of a Twitter exchange between the two of them including Owen calling Shearer out for not being as loyal as people think. My favourite response of the day though, goes to this. Made me spit my tea out. 1 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stadt Posted 3 September 2019 Share Posted 3 September 2019 Both absolute c unts. The most surprising thing is that Owen has actually came up with an opinion that is memorable. If they could conveniently destroy each other’s careers so we don’t have to hear their drivel ever again it’d be grand 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperMike Posted 3 September 2019 Share Posted 3 September 2019 I am not a Liverpool fan, but the mention of Michael Owen always raises a big question in my mind. As a Leicester fan thinking of the 'Best Ever Eleven' since the sixties, the choice of strikers (2, maybe 3) would be fairly straightforward : Worthington, Weller, (Earle?), Lineker , Cottee, Heskey or Vardy. Imagine the problem doing the same for Liverpool: Hunt? St.John? Keegan? Toshack? Dalgleish? Aldridge? Rush? Fowler? Owen? Torres? Suarez? Mané? Salah? (Johnson, Collymore, Heskey, Kewell, Kuyt, Firmino, Sterling, Crouch, Bellamy???). Would Owen be even considered amoungst that first lot? Despite being one of England's best ever ? Really not sure.

Koke Posted 3 September 2019 Share Posted 3 September 2019 Both Owen and Shearer are cvnts. I at least have some respect for Shearer as he didn't steal a living and actually performed for the club that paid him a fortune. Owen is an oxygen thief.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
