MU has like 8O mil n the best they could do was overpriced Valencia and Michael Owen!!
Dont get me wrong..Owen was a top quality player but there is a logical reason why that sentence is in the past tense..although he vehemently denies it, one cant help but lable him as extremely injury prone.. He plays, he gets injured. As an ankle heals, a groin muscle rips. When he returns, a knee ligament pulls. He is a mass of interconnecting torn tissue. He has never quite rediscovered his touch and the pace that marked him out as one of the best strikers at that time.
I only hope that with the type of support he will be getting at MU, from both the medical staff and players he will be able to regain what was lost and prove to be quite a ingenius move by Fergusson..
On another note, apparently, according to my sources Eto favours a move to ManUtd rather than ManCity..He is willing to forgo the big bugs if ManUtd's 25mil bid is excepted... PLEASE EXCEPT IT!!! it would make me feel a whole lot better about the Owen issue..
bah!!!
