Even Michael Owen is shocked

A few things, Michael:
-Don’t say that even you can’t believe that United signed Michael Owen. That’s not helping.
-Stop with the “I’m not injury prone” business. You are. Paul Robinson stepped on your foot and it made you injury prone. Deal with it.
-Don’t sign Manchester City shirts literally seconds after you join Manchester United (6:23 into the video). That’s just a no.

Michael Owen, former Kop legend, is now officially a MANCHESTER UNITED player. Sir Alex Ferguson is a genius and this is definitely his shrewdest signing ever. Michael Owen will earn a basic wage of £30,000 a week, with the rest of his salary dependent on appearances and goals.-The Independent That money is hardly going making a dent in Manchester United's wage structure. Even if Owen plays only 30 minutes a season, the Reds did not waste too much money. If Michael stays injury free and rediscovers his best form, Ferguson has in his service a Ballon d'Or winner. In any case, it must be a heart wrenching experience for any Liverpool fan to see their former ...
Michael Owen new Man Utd shirts on Pre-order
Football Shirts News —
The transfer of Michael Owen to Manchester United is surely one of the most shocking transfers of this summer. In a summer dominated by crazy spending by Real Madrid, Manchester United stole the sports pages with an unpredictable transfer, and interestingly, not spending a single pound of the £80 million they received from the Cristiano Ronaldo transfer. The Red Devils have already strengthened the wing with the acquisition of Antonio Valencia from Wigan, and the Michael Owen transfer is the second signing of the summer. The Old Trafford club was (…and still is!) linked with every imaginable superstar striker to replace the departed Carlos Tevez, but the ...

Old And Busted: Scouting. New Hotness: Brochures
Deuce of Davenport | Sports News, Commentary, Humor, Videos —
We can't wait until Rex Grossman and Daniel Cabrera come out with brochures touting the advantages to signing them. It worked for Michael Owen who somehow convinced Sir Alex Ferguson to sign him for Manchester United. For every Ronaldo, there's a Djemba Djemba. Even the Injury To Be Named Later couldn't believe the brochure worked so well. Shocking that Owen was able to do the interview in a somewhat vertical position. He probably pulled something when he got surprised at the fact that Man U was interested in him. Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor didn't waste ...
RoM Reaction To Michael Owen Signing
Republik Of Mancunia: A Manchester United Blog —
It’s not often that a player is undergoing a medical at Carrington and I’m hoping they fail it. It isn’t the natural behaviour of a fan to want a player who your beloved manager is keen on to fail their medical. But then it isn’t natural behaviour for a product of the Liverpool youth team, who played in almost 300 games and scored over 150 goals, to agree terms with Manchester United.
The world as we know it has turned upside down. Michael Owen is a Manchester United player and the vast majority of our fans are made up about it. I know I’m not asleep but I not sure whether this is a scenario from my dreams or my ...
