Man U getting rid of Ronalcuntdo and getting owen up front almost makes me like them.

This doesn't suprise me one bit. I think people/media are overly harsh on him and I imagine Ferguson feels he's picked up a bargain.
Possibly. I agree he's a very good player - it just depends if he can stay fit and if Ferguson's willing to change his approach to fit Owen in. Perhaps this is all part of reshaping the team having lost Ronaldo, to suit a new style of play?

He only missed 11 games last season - not too bad. I saw him play a few times and yes he was poor but he was offered zero distribution.

He's a long over due replacement for RVN.
He'll stay in the 6 yard box and tap them in. I think he will do well there.

Owen is still a great goalscorer and in a team that creates that number of chances he can't fail to get goals. Importantly i reckon playing at united and with Rooney hopefully will mean that he can get upto top form and into the England squad ahead of the world cup.
It would be a real bonus, if Owen could regain some sharpness and make the WC assuming we qualify...England aren't exactly overloaded with strikers.

its a crazy plan.... but it might just work !
I thought sheringham was well past it when they signed him, and he turned out OK for them

BBC are reporting that he has signed a 2 year deal at Manchester United.
Crazy scenes.

Fuckin' hell, can't believe the reaction for Darius Vassell! I reckon they think it's Eddie Murphy.

Its a good move for Owen and England, fingers crossed he can get a good run of games and goals before the world cup and then we can all think we're gonna win it...well for the 1st few games till we lose on penalties!

Plays in midfield and his name is Tommy Miller, signed him from Huddersfield his name is Tommy Miller, first touch is average but his second is a killer, heeeeeey Tommy Miller!

Isn't he shit? Or have I got the wrong player. What the fuck would they do if they signed someone decent?
