What's the source of this story? Got a link? Can't believe Manchester City still needs a on-loan striker when they had signed so many. Tottenham can't even give their 4th striker Palyvuchenko (sorry for the spelling) enough games so do they really need another striker too...?
Ferguson landed a huge psychological blow on Benitez cos he landed Owen? Blow of hot air ah? Quite a sensationalistic style of writing. If Ferguson is so sure of Owen, then Owen won't be on a pay per game package right?
