IS MICHEL OWENS ENGLISH CAREER OVER.

The talk in the football world is that Michel Owens English career is well and truly over.But I personally dont think so. People said the same thing with David Bechem, when he was waiting to be the fifth English footballer to play a hundred games for England in fact he has now played 106 games for England, and has equaled Sir Bobby Charltons record of 106 games.
Michel Owen is a player who will get you goals at both club and country level.As Newcastle United are second from the bottom he found it hard to get in Fabio Capello team.
Owen is not a big man but still scores goal with his head , and he is not strong and fast likeDider Drogba, or Emile Heskey. But Owen has a gift of being at the right spot and at the right time to poach goals like Hernon Crespo or Ruud Van Nistelrooy. If you compare Heskey and Owen you will notice how many chances are missed by Heskey, and Drogba. While on the other hand Owen converts half chances to beautiful goals.
So honestly Capello must think long and hard before rejecting Michel Owen for good.
