The "old golden boy" Owen, who just celebrated his 29th birthday, gave himself a great gift by scoring in the league game. Capello also hinted that he would recall him to the Three Lions squad in January. As for Newcastle's plan to renew his contract with a pay cut, Owen is still considering it. Given his red-hot form this season, with 7 goals in 9 starts, contacting a big club should be no problem, doesn't Tottenham already have interest?
In Owen's career, there have been too many good beginnings. In May 1997, he scored against Wimbledon in his Liverpool senior team debut, starting off with a dream. That same year, he made his England debut and on his birthday, he claimed the records of being the youngest player and the youngest goal scorer in the history of the Three Lions. The next year, he was already a key player in the World Cup, making a stunning long-distance dash, a treatment that even Ronaldo at the age of 18 did not enjoy. "God" Fowler also felt overshadowed by Owen's brilliance, quietly moving to Leeds United.
