Well done sloaney lad, say it as you see it.

Better value for money than tevez!

Owen has never fitted in at Newcastle it`s as simple as­ that.
If Hull do buy him, it should be on a­ pay-per-game contract. They won`t be paying out much.

If Phil Brown buys him then Mr Owen will be his­ problem/saviour.Newcastle need the money and need­ committed new players.

Owen is still a deadly striker. At Newcastle he did not­ have the midfield that could make him deadly. Going­ back to collect the ball instead of getting a decissive­ pass can make a world of a difference. Hull may not­ have the required midfield so he may fail again.

I have read all the valid comments that have been­ made, but as a Toon supporter who saw every match last­ season it pains me to say that for a majority of the­ time MO just did not look intrested. I don't know­ if it was a case of lacking confidence, or facing up to­ the fact that the Toon was going down so why bother. A­ lot has been said about a lack of service, I don't­ buy into that, if you are a really great player then­ you dont rely on others, if its not happening then you­ make it happen. It is to easy to blame everyone else.­ Make no mistake he was a great player a hat trick­ against the Germans says it all but those days are gone­ and if he does not watch out he will just be a hasbeen­ who slides done the leagues and that would be a shame.

He needs a strict training plan to keep him fit and­ injury free. With all the management and coaching­ staff swaps at Newcastle he didn't stand a chance. ­ I think Phil Brown would be a good manager for Owen to­ work with as he is a big on modern player-taylored­ training. Scoring 10 goals in a season for a team that­ eventually got relegated is pretty damn good and better­ than anyone Hull City currently have. I say he is­ worth a punt. Up the Tigers.

He's done, only football league in middle east like­ Uzbek or Qatar fits Michael Owen.

too inconsistent. hasn't hit form for a long long­ time. he'd be better of going to the spl

He failed in the relegation battle for Toon so what­ difference would it be at Hull?

As proven at the­ Toon he can't play the link up role and striker -­ the only way he can score is played up front off the­ shoulder off the defender.

He needs he head looking­ at if he moves to Hull - out of the frying pan into the­ fire springs to mind! I wonder how he'd respond to­ an on field 'team talk' held by the Head­ Umpalumpa?

It's all good and well Hull being­ interested but unfortunately for them he needs to be­ interested in playing for them!

His time at the toon­ has done him no favours not just because of injuries­ but because of the shambles of a 'team' (used­ in the loosest term possible) around him. Put him in a­ decent team that makes chances and I am convinced­ he'll be knocking them in again - however that­ team ain't Hull!

I have to laugh Wigan put in the 10 million bid to­ bring him to Wigan and he chose Newcastle because it is­ a bigger team.
Then that year Wigan played Newcastle­ and beat them with him in the side it was excellent.
He­ is a has been and always will be because of his­ injuries that keep coming back.
When his knee went from­ underneath him that was the end of him.
The same­ happened to Jimmy Bullard now he is not the same.
On­ both occasions Wigan have had a lucky­ escape!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Owen wants to prove he can stay fit and still do it­ at this level. Then yes this is the right move for him.­ But he'll have to take a hefty pay cut to prove­ himself. Is he ready to do this. It all depends on if­ he wants to prove that he is still a hungry class­ striker or the has been most think he now is.

So­ it's either a great gamble that will pay off for­ Hull or a egg on their face job.

Personally I hope he­ does sign and the old Michael Owen comeback. Lets face­ it. England doesn't have any really top quality up­ front apart from Rooney.

Owen is a player who needs quality support in order to­ get the goals, he didn't have it at Newcastle and I­ doubt he'll have it at Hull. He needs to play for a­ better club in order to regain his form, I hope­ Liverpool, but wherever is ok as long as we see the­ Owen we used to know and love:)

I'm just relieved he's not coming back to­ Liverpool. Hilarious that he left to pursue European­ honours and Liverpool lifted the trophy. The man's­ gone crackers recently, claiming he'd find it­ difficult to live on 40,000 a week. Some nerve on the­ man coming out with that kind of statement after­ spending most of his career in two working class cities­ that have struggled with employment since being ravaged­ by Thatcher in the eighties. I'd be happy to see­ him in the Championship, getting kicked around the­ park, maybe some time spent with players who can only­ dream of the money he's made over the years will­ give him the wake-up call he so obviously needs.

I think he is worth a go but only if he severely drops­ his wage demands. Yes he was injured but how many­ players go to Newcastle on huge wages then get long­ term injuries. Lets also bear in mind his lack of­ goals. He was playing in a very poor Newcastle team who­ couldn't hit a barn door with a pick up truck so­ going to a side that makes chances he will be fine. I­ would like him at West Ham

Ofcourse he is still worth it.Owen just needs to be­ free from injuries for 6 months and all his confidence­ will come back.You don't just go from being world­ class to being average overnight.Owen is still world­ class,yes the injuries may have taken a bit of pace­ from him but he still has the goal feeling and he just­ needs to be injury free.I would sign him tomorrow.

People say that he played in an NUFC team that­ didn't create chances; believe me, in most of the­ games he played (which wasn't a lot btw!) he had­ chances, sitters in fact, and he blew them all!­ He's finished, he no longer has the pace, and the­ cutting edge has gone.

I think he is still worth a shot, no transfer fee and­ if you can get the right pay as you play deal the's­ worth a gamble for anyone.

We'd have him in a flash at Birmingham City. Just­ what we need to help us stay up this time. Our defence­ is sound but we don't score goals.

Sound move by Phil Brown, I guess Jimmy Bullard needs­ somebody to keep in company in the treatment room and­ play cards with! joking apart though, I agree that­ he's a risk unless he was/is willing to take a­ severe pay cut. He did seem to be beginning to show a­ little form at the end of last season when finally­ injury free under Keegan so maybe all is not lost!
