The Red Devil thinks Sam Allardyce and Dave Whelan were wrong about him...
Michael Owen is hoping to answer those who doubted his ability in the upcoming campaign. But the former Newcastle United striker isn't too worried about their criticisms.
“If that was how they were perceiving me, fine, because the greatest accolade I could have is that Sir Alex Ferguson didn't think about that," he told FourFourTwo magazine. “I can quietly sit here and and look around where I am now - and if anyone else wants to look at what they've said, then they might feel embarrassed.
“I don't feel I have to impress these people.”
“I only need to prove things to people who believe in me,” he continued. “I want to show Sir Alex was right to believe in me.”
Owen is hoping he can go someway to plugging the goal scoring gap left by departing Red Devils.
"The team has lost two players - Tevez, who scored a few, and Ronaldo who got lots over the last two seasons," he said. “There's a big hole to fill, and I hope I can help plug it in terms of goals. I can't do it on my own - but I will help out.”
“When you sign for United you get excited about a lot of things. One of them, I hope, is scoring a lot of goals - because I am going to get a lot more chances here than at other teams.”
