If we have a good team of class players, i.e. great wingers for balance, we can stick a striker up front. Just up front and wait for the ball (in Owen's case, to slip the ball through). No more of this going deep to get the ball (Kuyt can do that) or running to the flanks.
Again, not making any judgment on Owen's personality. Just what he can contribute to what we desperately need. Of course, E'to can do too, but what, $35m?

taking away usual moral sermons, yes, he could help pool out in that dimension. eto'o can do that too, for 35mil!!!

(barca willing to sell meh?) but not that simple here...
michael owen needs playing time. will he be satisfied with being on the bench most of the time cos i foresee that rafa will play his preferred way first. if all else fails, then cue owen. wasnt that the initial reason why owen wanted to leave madrid in the first place?
but u have a point though about my bitter taste affect my opinion of owen...
