Michael Owen: I'm not shocked by how far Liverpool have fallen down the ladder

[GTi]

.......... My only concern is this statement here. What has he been told and how detrimental is it to the club. Also why should they be discussing things that are confidential to the club to the opposition??

Who is he talking about here? Current players?

[DeanoUK]

Two things to say about owen. a) wot a fukin little gob ****e he really is after betraying the Club who made him once a fantastic player, and b) where were you in Instanbul

I'll never forgive him for what he's done, no matter how many goals he scored for our Club

Ditto.

[Roboklopp]

Poisionous little ****e.

[Gazmo1]

Welsh ****.

[Cormack74]

Not sure SG and Carra are going to be too impressed that he's hinting at stuff he's been told in confidence.

[Craig_H]

Not sure Michael Owen is in any position to talk about others falling down the ladder.

Is he even going to play the necessary games to earn a medal if the scum spawn the title? Doubt it.

[SB]

Someone suggested the other day he may be loaned out to Leicester . LOL

[RedReet]

To be fair, he says our position is a consequence of the takeover and other off-field issues. Barnes said we should just except that we’re a top TEN side now as we haven’t been a big club for 20 years. It’s almost as if those first 4 years under Rafa didn’t happen at all for some people.

[Shaggy]

He's a ****ing ******.

[Drago]

He's a ****ing ******.

im not surprised how far down the pecking order owen is

[barnes10]

to me he's saying that Stevie and Jamie haave basically said that Rafa stopped us passing and moving. And thats the reason for our decline.

Well that's the kind of mad assumptions that start most of the rumours about those two.

I hope that's true

[barnes10]

is it really mad tho:

-----------------

However, he remains close to Steven Gerrard - who was sent-off - and Jamie Carragher - who missed out through injury - and has strong opinions about life at his old club.

...

'I don't think they would ever forgive me if I said what they had told me,' reflected Owen.

'Throughout all those successful years Liverpool built their foundation on passing and moving.

'But, from when I was there (Rafa's start), everything has changed, barring two players. They even got rid of the doctors and the medical staff.

----------------------------

so why is it mad? He says he's still close to those two, that he has strong opinions (i.e. good sources) of whats gone one and life is like with us and that since he left. That everything had changed and thats why we're mid-table.

To me that says Stevie and Carra grumbling to Owen about the Rafalution. That Rafa was trying to do it his own way from top to bottom whilst they wanted him to fit into the houllier's setup/structure etc.
