    Yeah, Capello watching also, Owen should be up for it!

    Maybe Fergie doing good on Owen's behalf? Maybe a thank you for that goal against City? :)

    Very happy with that team (though have doubts over Kuszczak)

    Looking forward to see Owen from the off, and will be keeping an eye on Carrick. Hope he does well.

    Great to see Owen given a chance ahead of Berbatov. I just hope he takes it.

    Good chance for Wolfsburg there. Straight at Foster though.

    EDIT: Just noticed that it's not FIG, it's PIG.

    Giggsy has developed his crossing to almost Beckhamesque quality these days. What a pro.

    Was that a shot from Rooney?
    I know FIFA have moved the goal posts but not that far.

    Ouch. Kick in the teeth for Owen. Could've been a great chance for him to show Capello what he's made of.... in this case... injuries.

    Surely if his groin was hurt during the week he shouldn't have started? He should be limited to sub roles IMO.:confused:

    No, he was just too wet and didn't want to play anymore.

    Going by my very amateur lipreading skills but I think Owen was saying groin strain when they showed the cu of him on the bench.
    Not even 50% sure on this though so grain of salt.

    Costa looks to be marshalling Rooney pretty well so far.

    I know they were playing against Wolves in the carling cup but I don't think Macheda or Welback have even been on the bench at all yet for a proper game have they?


    Who needs them though with finishing like Valencia :P

    Don't think there's any fear of Berbatov pulling a groin anyway :)
