Magnificant Owen is back

Six goals in last six matches. The 28-year-old now has managed 17 consecutive starts scoring 12 goals for the season.He is back and is getting fitter everyday.The lethal striker who scored the impressive goal against argentina in the world cup 98 is slowly showing signs of his arrival in form.
Many thought that the injury prone striker’s career is over after he suffered a damaged anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during england’s world cup match against Sweden.But he has surely proven them wrong showing the world that form is temporary but class remains permanent.
Newcastle seems to be recovering under new era of Kevin Keegan.The magpies are out of the relegation threat now and Keegan must have already started his preparation for next season.After awarding capataincy to Michael owen it looks almost sure that he will be an important part of keegan’a tactics next season.
Owen is showing an impressive partnership with Mark viduka and Martins.This triple partnership has been instrumental in the recent victories of the magpies.
The former Real Madrid striker was under pressure to stay with the magpies in the beginning of last season as the club remained behind him during his injuries.Many clubs were said to be interested in him.Former Newcastle chairman Freddy Shepherd did warned him publically and asked some loyality with him.Owen surely has showed some loyality and it is unlikely that he will leave next season.
Newcastle chairman Chris Mort has accepted that he wants Owen to stay and will be sitting with the club’s hero to negotiate a new deal.With the club showing signs of re-building with some prospective signings,(The club is reported to have made a bid of £20million for the Croatian midfielder Luka Modric)it seems that Newcastle will be a big force next season.Keegan will probably be hoping that Owen will continue to retain his form and fitness next season.
If Owen manages to do so,we are almost sure that we will get a treat of a football watching the magnificent striker at his best.
