“He’s given the ref no choice but to consider his options.” That could easily have been a real quote, he’s legitimately that thick. I would not be surprised if he were to come out with that one at some point in the future. Brilliant article.
ROFL.. had me going there, Blogs.. I was so sure they were real.. genius.. If Owen actually said those things his commentary would be a little interesting atleast.. dipshit

It’s a shame these are all made up, it’s totally convincing that these could be true but then if they weren’t false how are we to known whether they’re true or false or not?

Len Shackleton’s chapter on what the average director knows about football is probably still the best wisdom comment football has seen
it would apply to little Mickey quite nicely as well, the short-arsed tosspot.

He is a terrible pundit and can’t seem to articulate even the simplest of point. But he still has an understanding of football that is way beyond anyone who’s not played at the top level.
I’m trying to figure out when little Mickey said this.

My comment is in the spirit of Michael Owen. “It’s a great article unless you don’t like the article, in that case, maybe just read it once and decide if you like the article”
(I enjoyed it myself).
The best article ever. but for me the writer has to do better…;-)

This is the greatest thing I’ve ever read. Do more! That Rolling Stones one is almost at a Shakespeare level of genius. I actually thought they were real until the milkshake one. Does that reflect worse on me or Michael Owen?
They are amazing. I joined the party late though. Consequently my effort was a: against the rules, and b: shit.

Difficult to find out which ones are genuine quotes because of his accent. Him carragher, rooney etc…I can never understand when they open it. I still think the majority of these are true from him because I this he is definitely thicker than his horses

I used to adore Owen. I even forgave him for those goals in the FA Cup Final.
He’s a proper thunderbastard now though. Hope he just pisses off.

Heard him once say that Hart should have ‘shouted cherries’ when a cross came in, no-one seems to have any idea what he means, or have heard it before, and I’m worried I might die without ever learning the significance of the cherries.
I definitely thought it was real, that’s how much I think Owen is shit as a pundit. He is just so terrible. You would think he would know a lot of things after playing at the top level for many years but my God he is just TERRIBLE.

One of the unfortunate things about watching football in India is that he is the ‘expert’ in the panel many times. I already mentioned here how irritating it was to watch him smirk after our loss in the first match against the Hammers. Made the loss all the more excruciating. Brilliant article! Could never have guessed this comments were made up. Seems he is perfectly capable of saying such things. I laughed my guts out imagining him saying such things and looking like an oaf. Hope he comes with some pure gems like the Sterling vs Ozil one during our… Read more »

But then how stupid are the people who actually pay these him and Savage

Oh Michael… What have you done to yourself?
I know… he’ll never again scale these lofty peaks:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uD-LjX_K9Cg
ARGH! The voiceover. He does that for a living?
The cunt.
Fuck me .. That may be the most monotone ,dull flat voice I’ve ever heard .. Little mickey may have stumbled upon a cure for insomnia.
Good thing you made the quotes up, anything actually about the wisdom of Michael Owen would be a pretty short and pointless article otherwise.
I’ll admit to not being sure until I was like halfway through if they were real or not. Owen really is that stupid.
That’s the thing for me, too. Apart from two or three, I thought they were real because Owen is that painfully thick.
The first few are real… Fake quotes start at Kelis. Thankfully, being in the US means I never have to listen to this idiot.
“He’s given the ref no choice but to consider his options.” That could easily have been a real quote, he’s legitimately that thick. I would not be surprised if he were to come out with that one at some point in the future. Brilliant article.
Yeah I had a hard time figuring it out too.
Although one thing he apparently did say in the United vs Brugge game was “Memphis Depay looks like a footballer doesn’t he?”
I guess to his credit he wasn’t talking about Peter Crouch or Charlie Adam…sadly
Have to admit they were real all the way to the bottom. And usually I sniff out Blogs’ fake news stories pretty early.
He should have the word “cunt” etched unto his forehead.
Like this http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2009/03/23/crank-cunt-forehead.jpg
ROFL.. had me going there, Blogs.. I was so sure they were real.. genius.. If Owen actually said those things his commentary would be a little interesting atleast.. dipshit
The tragedy is I can’t work out if these are real or not.
I was thinking the same thing,but he’s such a bellend it wouldn’t suprise me if they’re true
And he looks like Cliff Richard in that picture.
This article made me google “Wisdom
Of Michael Owen”
…
The Mick Jagger one has to be real. Can someone get the, ahem, deleted tweet which says he said that?

“Raheem Sterling is better than Mesut Ozil”
Enough said.
This is an actual quote from Owen this season:
“Aderwerield had a great season at *purs last year so you can see why *ottenham have signed him”
Shit commentary about a shit player from a shit club! The man’s a twat!
I read everything in Michael Owens voice, it made perfect sense, perfect logical sense..!
“I thought this was made up but now I know it’s not real”. haha. Say anything about Owen and you’re damn right
Has anyone found the made up one yet?

Everyone of those quotes just fits, they all made me chuckle hahaa
