Former Liverpool's wonder boy, Michale Owen has finally reached the shores of Old Trafford. It is funny seeing a boy growing up supporting Liverpool, only to end up playing for Manchester United. But I dare say all United fans are welcoming Owen into the club. When Owen first burst into the Premier League, he had created a storm but sadly, more than a decade later, he has not been able to reach his peak. Injury problems and a weak midfield support in Liverpool and Newcastle, and the mass of plastic galaticos at Real has not been helpful. Now he is 29 and with age catching up, Man United may be Owen's last bid to become the world class player he was supposed to be.
Frankly, I'm damn excited to see Owen in action, wearing the coveted No.7 shirt, than I did with Cristiano Ronaldo. But then, the last time I was so excited was when Fabien Barthez came over to Man U and the last we heard of him wasn't that pleasant.
