My mate told me that Man Utd are going to swap C. Ronaldo for Owen.
Is this a load of crap or is it true? Has anyone else heard anything about it? What do people think if it is true?
Personally i think it would be a bad move for Man utd. In my books C. Ronaldo is invaluable, his amazing now let alone what he could be in the future.
I have never really rated Owen that highly, only when he was 17. Defenders have learned how to cope with him. Give him a yard and you've got him every time. His career has been full of injury and it won't be long untill he gets another. The way that i see it Man Utd need to bring in players which are amazing and which stand out from other players C. Ronaldo is one of these Owen however is not. There are plenty of players that are the same sort of player as him, small and fast e.g Vassel.
It's obviouse that Man Utd are looking for a new striker after Ruud's season. But to me Owen is not the answer. Anyway all strikers have poor seasons and Owen only wishes he could be like Ruud. Give him another season fergie and he will be banging in the goals.
