    Wear the jersey, become the jersey!
    He's training with Huth & Shawcross on a daily basis. It's going to have knock-on effects!

    Sure it was only November the guy had a moustache! He's gone rogue!!!

    Probably the most energetic thing this smug,bland con artist has done since leaving Real Madrid, at least the likes of Scholes, Giggs and Lampard want to play football, I wish he'd clear off to his stables and mess around with his nags, took the Geordies for a ride and sat on his hole for 3 years at Old Trafford.
    Wow issues much? He was on the back of what he thought was a bad tackle and reacted, everybody who has played football has done it. Get over whatever little hang up you have there.

    I'm just stunned that people still give Michael Owen money to wander cluelessly around a football pitch.

    Including Scholes, who is mentioned in the OP, when he tried to punch Alonso a few years back.

    A nothing incident.

    The OP must of lost a bet on a horse owned by Owen, beaten at a photo finish was it?

    Stoke's handbags have bricks in them.

    It's nothing...even in the slow-motion replay you can see it's nothing.

    You'd see worse at an U-12 game!

    Compare that to Rooney's elbow on McCarthy last year, now that was was thugish behaviour.

    Don't begrudge Scholes a penny of his wealth or success, a genuine lad who doesn't schmooze and smarm around, and gives his all on the pitch.

    This type of hype is what is starting to put me off football.I love the sport to it's core,but it's turning into a soap more than a sport.

    It was stupid of Owen to lash out like that but it was nothing. A little flick out at Arteta. It's the type of thing that if the roles were reversed and Arteta was the one being charged I'd be outraged. But then again its Stoke and its Michael Owen so I couldn't give a ****e either way.

    I hope that Arteta will be OK after that horrendous physicality demonstrated by an emotionless monster.

    When has Michael Owen not given it his all on the pitch?

    Well that punch on Arteta seemed a bit half-hearted for one.
