sorry joel hate to do this but emp is right (for once) it won't be a pay as you play only deal - its a low basic (probably in the region of 25-30k) with huge bonuses for appearances and goals

not worth the risk for a player who was awful in his few appearances while at newcastle ...... you can talk all you want about his lack of service etc but its obvious he is a has-been

Yes I realise this but in the big picture, it is really nothing. The groundsmen get paid more then that.

He hasn't proven he is worth anything like that. If he wants that much Villa can have him.

now you see why i dont want him then? lol ...... mind i would still not be keen if it was on the deal you talked about - i like to see kids given a chance - they always used to in the past - the likes of sammy lee and ian rush all had to force their way in but we were only buying 3 or 4 players at most a season then so there was a much bigger chance of them getting a place

Trep I think it's all academic anyway. I don't think Rafa will bring him back in. He only did it for Robbie cause he knows what Robbie means to the fans.

well with un-Real, barça, chavski, the mancs and their blue neighbours bidding big time on anything in shorts we may end up having to take Owen cos he'll be the only one left! wink

I think Owen would get a warm welcome from most of Anfield mind you.
I read Cinco's comment back on page 4 and I think he made a good point about how Owen played for us etc.

If he's free, I think it would be a good move even though I did post earlier that I would like to see the younger players get a chance. For a back up/sub for Torres we'd need an experienced player like Owen.

And because Robbie, despite his age, was an amazing finisher and one of the best at finding the space around the penalty spot - plus his love for the club would rub off on others (and this was before we had torres). What could Michael Owen bring to the squad and how could he improve others. his love and passion for us is questionable.... NO THANKS MIKE.
