Owen Hargreaves

I'd have him but strictly on a pay-as-you-play basis.
If he's a free agent, let him train with us and assess his fitness from there. Still got the quality to play in the Prem as he proved last season but as always, his fitness is the issue. can't hurt

Just tweeted Nixon about this. Although cryptic, he does tend to be in the know. His response was to go back to my source (that being this article) and slap his head. Presume it's a no then!

Cool Russ. I think that puts that to bed then if Tricky Nixie has said no.

Pay per game only .....

He is not the ball winner we need so I don't know exactly how he would be used. Perhaps backup goalkeeper knowing OC.

Seriously can't believe that we wouldn't bite hands of to get hargreaves.

If this rumour has any truth ib it then i for one am exited at the prospect

I'm with you notlob. Was not that long ago that he was the stand-out England player of the tournament

I do rate Hargreaves and I hope he'd arrive all mended and working to help us out but sadly he'll never be fully fixed.

Pity really.

Another Owen...?

Hi Mallorca.

He was a great player and I once dreamed of him playing for us as his father is a Bolton Supporter. Sadly I don't think he could make a come back as a player who could get back to anywhere near the fitness that is required.

Pay as you play would be the only option.

Morning SWIE....

I remember the Bolton connection & always hoped we'd get a look in... Sadly, his year at Man City showed the best medical care can't get him going..

It's a no for me. We've got enough good players not playing at the moment.

Same with Micheal Owen. You can imagine he is screaming for a 2 year deal whilst every club is terrified of committing, hoping for clauses etc....
