Is Michael Owen the unluckiest player of all time ?
Newcastle and England striker Michael Owen has once again been injured. The injury occurred during England's 1-0 win away against Austria this evening. Owen walked off the field early on in the match with was later confirmed as a thigh injury that will definitely rule him out of England's crucial Euro 2008 qualifier against Croatia (If Russia fail to win on Saturday).
It is likely that the injury will keep him out for as much as a month, not good news for Newcastle boss Sam Allardyce who has only welcomed the striker back recently from another injury. Owen must be one of the unluckiest players when it comes to injuries. I just hope this injury isn't as bad as first thought and he is back training within a few days.
So, with this latest injury, does this make Michael Owen the unluckiest player of all time?
