with at least 25mil from owen leaving we'd have 55mil to spend.
although i dont want owen to leave.
That £30m is dependent on qualifying for the Champs league - and getting past the first round too so we can forget that.
And £20M for Owen? Are you joking? In the current market we'd get £12m max, especially with his injury record.
We'll be luckuy to hang on to Owen - I reckon he's going and I wouldn't be surprised to see Kewell leave either, he's a right ba#ta#d - look at what he did to Leeds.
We'd get £25m easy for Owen, just not from any English club bar Chelski. I wouldn't sell him anyway, we are unlikely to be able to sign a striker as good for the money we'd get so where would be the point?
We won't have much choice when he decides he wants to leave, no point keeping an unhappy player and all that. Players have all the power now.
But £25m? Sorry, but we have no chance of a fee like that, those days are over. And Chelski don't need him - I reckon he'll go abroad which is one blessing at least.
