Viera, Keane or Gerrard , players that can single handedly grab hold of games by the scruff of their necks & make something happen

I'd add Lampard to that list as well. He was easily Chelsea's best player last season and i'd choose him above Gerrard anyday.

Too right, fat Frank has been bloody awesome for the past two years.

Knocking on the door of 150 Premiership games in a row, that's some going.

I see Mourinho has been shooting his mouth off saying Micheal Owen wouldn`t even get in the Chelsea first team.

Oh yeah because Chelsea have a great bunch of strikers. A £24 million flop ,an Argentine who couldn`t wait to get out & is only playing for them because he couldn`t find another team and a Serbian non entity.And the less said about the cokehead the better. In fact the only decent striker Chelsea have is Eidur Gudjohnsen , and no way is he as good as Owen.

It says he`s Serbian on their official website

Kezman plays for Serbia & Montenegro, but couldn't hit a cows backside with a banjo in the Premiership and has been parcelled off to Atletico Madrid for a ghastly sum of £5million.

And he'd said he would score more than Ruud Van Nistelrooy in the Premiership as well.

So...Chelsea turn over the Arse', hoped that would'nt happen...you know just to make things a bit more interesting...ah well, early days.
Kleberson to Besiktas for less than 2Million...and United need the money!!!!
And Newcastle make a bid for Owen. Looks like Ferguson isn't interested, has Owen had his day in the big time?

franscar · 08-07-2005, 05:04 PM

I can't understand it. Scored goals all through his career, still young, and nobody wants to buy him. Surely he won't want to be Alan Shearer's bitch as is the requirement for any striker at Newcastle?

Might be a godsend for England for him to stay at Madrid, play not so much but be fit and fresh and ready to prove a point come World cup time.

right-track · 08-07-2005, 05:12 PM

If he has any sense he wont go to Newcastle. Everybody seems to hate Souness, even his own players.
Personally I'd love to see him at Old Trafford, even if he is a bin dipping scouser and I agree he does need to stay fit, especially with that recurrent hamstring injury.
Even then he' still worth around 15 goals a season.

I think it`s the price putting people off Owen.

Madrid get him for £8 million , he spends most of the season on the subs bench & now he`s worth twice that?

I don`t think Newcastle will get him , I think Man Utd will see what Newcastle are offering (£11 million i hear) and improve on that so they don`t have to spend the £16 million Madrid are asking.
