In all seriousness, am I the only one who thinks Owen could still score goals in the Prem? If (and it's a big if) he stays fit and gets into a starting XI, then I don't see any reason why he can't pop up with 10+ goals at least. He might not be that quick anymore but you never lose that 'fox in the box' mentality.
No, you're not the only one. I've been banging this drum on twitter for ages. That said. with his injury record it's a risk for teams to take, especially given that he apparently still wants top money. Also, he's pretty settled where he is so he's really limiting himself to teams in the north-west and maybe the midlands.
