Michael Owen hasn't endeared himself to many of his former clubs, and this latest move might not see him invited back to Anfield any time soon.
Asked to pick a combined XI from Liverpool and Manchester United for the Premier League website, the ex-England striker risked the wrath of the Anfield faithful by leaving out Reds captain Jordan Henderson. In fact only three Liverpool players made the cut in his 4-2-3-1 formation: centre-back Martin Skrtel, playmaker Philippe Coutinho (shifted out to the right to accommodate Wayne Rooney) and striker Christian Benteke. Liverpool fans shouldn't be too upset though - it's not the first time Owen has shared an unpopular opinion. We've established that he's not big on his films. https://twitter.com/themichaelowen/status/114756439020548096 Yup, he's still not a cinema fan. https://twitter.com/themichaelowen/status/523566462766972929 While he mystifyingly doesn't have much time for nougat either. https://twitter.com/themichaelowen/status/165117705433788416Explore more on these topics:
