There's alotta rumours saying Liverpool is getting Michael Owen back. It's probably going to be 1 yr on loan 1st, the year after than we pay for his transfer fee. It seems like the board is pressuring Rafa to buy him. That's only my opinion, and I've not done anything whatsoever to verify it.
I've always not been a fan of Owen. I always thought that to make him efficient, you have to play in a way thats not beautiful. And he seems to have lost his speed which is the main thing that make him so dangerous.
Anyway, personal prejudice aside, I have other doubts about getting him back. 1 year ago, he left us for supposedly greener pastures. 1 year ago, Milan Baros chose to stay and fight for his place.
For the past year, it's been bad for Owen. He's not been getting alotta games. For the past year, Milan Baros have a mixed season. He performed quite well in the 1st half of the season, but in the 2nd, for some reasons, his performance dropped significantly. But even then, you can see that he put in 110% effort every time he played.
Now, after a disappointing season in Real Madrid, Owen wants to come back. But we got enough strikers, so we likely to offload 1, and it looks to be Milan Baros. I've always liked Baros. He always put in alotta efforts and he has been improving on his weaknesses. I can understand that Rafa wants to release Baros in favour of some better striker, or for funds to get another player in a more needed position. I'll not compare their abilities. I'll just say that I don't think Owen is very much better than Baros.
But to drop Baros for Owen? I'm not sure, but to exchange someone who has put in his blood for us for someone who turn his back on us seems so wrong. No doubt Baros has a bad mouth. He seems to say all the wrong things to the press. But all the things that he said, it's because he wants to play. Every time he complained about not playing, he accepts his position and tries to fight his way back in. This shows his immerse fighting spirit. This guy has a winning mentality. We should keep him.
