Owen was their joint top scorer this season.. He has the best shots to goal ratio, which means he takes the chances he gets (and I have said that to you so many times already).. The point is also he is a free transfer, yes, he may not be as good, but I think that having Michael Owen on the bench would be a great option for us..

That's a risk we have to take, he's a free transfer, which would allow us to spend in other areas of the team.. He might pick up injuries, but his experience would not just help us when he is fully fit, but it will also help the young players coming through into the first team.. He'd be a great buy..
