Bet newcastle fans ***'s are twitching. free to sign a contract next month for free to any club.
good signing for any of the top 4 imo. proven goal scorer when fit.
think his wages would be a major stumbling block though. cant see top 4 paying it for a part time/injured player. although shevchenko springs to mind
I think he may leave, bit of a sinking ship at present with it being up for sale etc. be nice to see him stay though so newcastle dont lose there best players. think that would be unfair on the fans.

Newcastle would be better off without him, money grabbing imho
if he thinks the grass in greener elsewhere let him go find out its not
good on his day but doesnt always have his day if you know what i mean

i'd also have him at arsenal, has pace and knows how to poach a goal.
he is a talented striker and has an awesome goals to games ratio but he is made of cheese. should fit in nicely at arsenal then
city is a good shout but i can see them lining up bigger fish now. maybe before the take over.
villa need a strong tall striker(i predict heskey transfer in jan) they have 2 fast strikers already.
would anyone else want him at the club?

He is still a good player, first start in ages and bangs in two goals. the first one was a scuff but he was in the right place. second typical Owen goal.
there will be a few managers interested i think.
I don't want to offend anyone but If we are all honest he's not going to win anything with the toon is he?
Sorry Geordies just being a realist.

Pay a you play contract untill Fitness Is proved. And massive Goal Bonus's to accommodate the drop In wages ( He will never get 100k+ a week again )

If he stays he needs a large paycut!
He's played 37 games in 4 years for us on £102,000 a week. I'd like that job. Flys in by helicopter to training and then flys home again same thing for matches. I think whoever signed the contract he's on needs a swift kick in the jacksie.
But when he's fit there's no-one better....just a shame my gran is fitter than him.

I dont really rate him that much anyway. He does have something about him admittedly but as an all round player I dont think he contributes that much to the team anyway. alot of his goals have come from tap ins from 2 yards out that probably would have gone in anyway

Personally, I'm not a fan, but no question he knows where the net is.
Got to be in the right place at the right time.
I don't think Gary Lineker ever scored from outside the 18 yard box but no-one can question his goal scoring abilities.
Strikers job is to score goals, regardless of where/how he gets them.
I think he will end up at Everton and would be a good signing for them.

Goal scoring ratio ok .Games per season ratio crap
Cant see any of the top 4 wanting him and a big mistake for villa!
Man City could afford him though
I always thought he was a one trick pony. Good at the one trick ill grant you that

Can't see him going to the Toffees myself 
I can't see Moyes spending a huge chunk of his salary budget on a player who's only going to be fit for half of the games at most
