In the gossip today:

It seems Callum Davenport is training at Forest - I alway liked him as a player, but can someone come back from an injury like he has suffered and be as strong as before - if he can then it is a good move by Davies.
Also Bristol City have asked to loan Danny Welbeck - had it turned down but have been offered Owen instead - allegedly.

Blimey that would be a shock move. No doubt in my mind whatsoever that Owen, provided he stays fit, would absolutely destroy championship defences.

Can't see it happening though. I'm sure there'lll be many lower premiership manages reaching for Ferguson's number if this news is true.

Indeed he would. That's a very big PROVIDED though.

We already have the poor man's Michael Owen - Jamie Ward - on the books.

Ward is more the poor mans Darius Vassell

We already have the poor man's Michael Owen - Jamie Ward - on the books.

That's a bit like describing Nora Batty as a poor man's Claudia Schiffer.

We already have the poor man's Michael Owen - Jamie Ward - on the books.

Championship defences would soon have him injured.
The only comparison with Ward is they rival one another for time away injured, especially unreliable hamstrings.

Man united haven't a big enough squad to send owen out on loan.

Admit...if our Malayasian interested party said he'd put the money up to fund Owen's wages for the season,would you consider him for us?

Discuss....

Owen will play Sunday, he's also been involved in United's pre-season. Total bullshit story I reckon.
