I know but being fit alone is a massive if. Even so, I'm not sure if Owen would score 15+ a season. What set him apart from the other top players was his pace, saying well he'd get bags of chances at United in ways is true, but a lot of sides when playing sides like us, United, Chelsea and so on, defend for 90 minutes. I don't see Owen as the type of player who is dangerous enough against these types of sides. I believe at the top sides, the strikers need to be almost complete to play, attributes like height, pace, movement, strength, control and finishing ability are usually required for the best. I know Owen's not going to be a star signing or whatever, but I'd have thought United would have higher standards. May as well let Wellbeck or Macheda play more.

Still one of the best finishers around, his strike rate is second to none, all he has to do is stay fit.

Defoe
Bent
Doyle
A.Johnson'
Zamora

Are just a few that would cost more, and I'd prefer to have Owen than any of them.

Your right about the pace I remember when he played for us we would have him on the heels of the defender and put balls in to run onto to go one on one with the keeper, it was his trademark finish.

Will have wait and see won't we his move seems to be nailed on.

Yeah, he's decent at putting chances away for sides like Newcastle, sides won't defend for 90 mins against Newcastle, so he gets space and isn't marked half as tightly. I just don't think he offers enough for a side like United, and maybe won't get as many chances due to his lack of other attributes.

There's a few posts on here where Liverpool fans said they'd like to sign him.

You always get a few.

Im one of them i still think hes got something to give to whoever signs him just hope its not your mob

Strange thing to say, I'm pretty sure we create more chances than Newcastle, Newcastle also don't have the likes of Rooney and Berbatov to contend with.

For Michael Owen see Ole Gunnar Solksjaer.

I was thinking more bench player who will score when it matters.
