KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Michael Owen to Man Utd

he forced his way out of the club because he doesn't give a toss about anything but himself and his england career - he is a selfish little tw*t and i am just glad he is not returning to us

having said that i still would not boo him - i would prefer to hear deathly silence when his name is read out and if he touches the ball - ignore him coz he is an irrelevance who is not fit to be bothered about

His careers been on the slide since the day he left us. Ran his contract down and didn't even give Rafa a chance so we got half his market value despite making him the player he was. Moves to Madrid to sit on their bench, before moving to Newcastle when he could have forced a move back to us had he wanted or a bigger club and is now swaning off to our bitter rivals. He's no respect or loyalty to Liverpool at all.

We developed him from a young kid into one of the worlds best and he screwed us when he moved on. Since then we've won the Champions League, FA Cup and come as close to winning the league in the last 20 odd years. He's been a bit part player and injured most of the time, achieved nothing and is a shadow of the player he was and long may it continue.

Lets face it Owen has moved on.......so should we.

OK so he is going to our arch rivals, so what? It is a long time since he left us and he has never hit the heights of the times he had with us, not with Real and certainly not with Newcastle.

He was once a really good player, but those days are gone, and Man U are willing to take a risk that his injury history won't continue when he is with them. They can afford to do that because of the depth of their squad. We can't. We also need a stand by striker we can rely on to be fit in case Torres has trouble with his hamstring again. Owen certainly doesnt fit that bill.

This deal might be ok for Owen because it will get his name in the headlines again, it might be ok for Man U because they will have a second string striker, but he certainly isnt a replacement for Ronaldo and that is who they are going to miss next season.

Let him go. When he comes to Anfield in a Man U shirt just ignore him, cheer our lads to the rafters when they score against him, and trust that Carra and the rest of them will keep him in his place.

that's right [oops] him.

He deserves absolutely nothing from us.

i would bring back fowler any day than have owen

shithole, i cant imagine him wearing the smelly red jersey of manure walking out from the serene anfield tunnel. it is disgustingly insulting!

Anywhere else bar that rancid shack over the park, and I could have stomached it, but THAT shower of shitesters.
The steal is done. Too awful to even think about at present.

I originally put his departure from us as pure bad judgement, but THIS is a step too far.
My faith in him has completely evaporated now.

Cant belive he would do that just proves that the game is starting to mean less and less to players he deserves nothing from liverpool fans anymore.I certainly have no respect for him now.Wish it was him ged sold and not FOWLER at the time!!!!!

I'm not one of those who has been slagging him off for the last 5 years, however today my stomch turned. I'm not going to have a go at him now cos I wouldn't waste my breath. He left us cos we were winning nothing & then Istanbul happened. He went to Real Madrid, won nothing; he went to Newcastle, took them down; he's now gone to Man Utd, I'm sensing a downward trend here. If the Mancs win sod all this season, do you think we should call him Agent Owen?

its this bit that got me most:

"I agreed without a moment's thought. This is a fantastic opportunity for me and I intend to seize it with both hands."

makes me sick
