Thought I'd start a football blog, we might keep this going until 2010.....England doing well....did not see the match or even the goals....I'd like Michael owen back in the squad though....and I think Peter Crouch would make a very good substitute...remember against Argentina in Geneva a few years ago....with Michael Owen and some very good movements on and off the ball...they caused havoc.....did see Scotland's missed chance....that could be very costly losing those 2 points !.

And the "ballon d'or" of france football : european footballer of the year award. I can't understand why on earth didn't he come on for Newcastle....baffling..

Cos hes no fuc*ing good

Alex Ferguson got Owen for nothingand that was overpriced!!his wage is 20,000 a week as a basic salary.Newcastle paid him 110,000 a week .. Owen signed a two-year deal and is owened by Unitednot exactly high risk for Fergusonthey might even get a return.Cash for clunkers

I don't think Campbell can play for a league club until Jan. over hear, so wonder if he can play abroad?.. assuming anyone wants him that is after walking out on County.

JS no Gerrard hasn't won the league but he has won the champions league not like TERRY, LAMPARD, COLE, etc.

Gerrard (if he wasnt a glorified footballer) would be enjoying the services of Her Majesty The Queen for his disgraceful off-field demeanours.......mind you the thug cant even speak English but i suppose he didnt go to school like most of the scum that purport to be the youth of UK

marni.........as opposed to the youth of iraq? lol...jog on....the taxi queues slow tonight?

Pure luck as every football fan knows. Had it not been for Platini perhaps JT, Frank et al could have joined the scouse one, with a CL medal in the cabinet.

Chances are had that been the case, the medals would still be there, unlike gerards where 11 scouse players have been burgled over the last year - what wonderful folk round there (as the media often remind us)

Whoops

Wigan

Liverpool not playing well....lots of people including myself thought that they would be the team to beat this year.....they might improve as the season progresses...

Alex Ferguson got Owen for nothingand that was overpriced!!his wage is 20,000 a week as a basic salary
After watching him the other night for 15 minutesI would say his medical bill for the two years Ferguson got him forcould top the sale of Ronaldo+what a wasted space

Missed the game so can't comment...I remember Michael Owen (pre 2006 world cup) as a tremendous player, unstoppable at times....very bad injury though...

tabby i think owen's winning goal against City will in Sir Alex's mind have paid back his whole investment in Owen.

but then again....you must know better than Sir Alex.....

TrigI would say you know quite a bit about footballnow tell me with hand on heartwas the motive for signing that useless pratt anything more than an ego trip by Sir Alexto prove he could turn the spasmo back into a European forcenot a chancehe wont last one season
Keep teaching young Mr. Foetze to kick with both feet

now personally i do not rate Owen....you english get all excited and over hype your won players...he has been a waste of money for years.

however sir alex needed a finisher for the squad this season ......owen when he is fit is a finisher...the probelm is he gets injured too much and is a bit of a girl....ah i cut myself shaving...need to not play for 4 weeks

however what my point above was getting at was on a free and not on a huge wedge and him hitting the winner against City...if he does not play another minute all year I am sure Sir Alex will still be smiling about his signing.

young mr treblewide is already quite capable with both feet....gonna be a mazy left winger i think :-)

My vision for M.Owen is to come on as a supersub for the England side....Defoe or Rooney or one of the others gets injured and we throw on Michael...you never know..last 15mn quarter final (world cup) and bang : he gets a priceless goal....(dream on required field).....

Anyone seen Gerard win the league ?

What the Champions league? Yes.
