The most baffling thing about this whole argument with Shearer was that Owen had the actual audacity and cheek to question Shearer's undeniable loyalty to Newcastle when he was the one who played for Liverpool and then Man United! 🤣
he's hated by all the english teams he played for
@@andrewvaughan5686 united fans don't hate him
@@leejones3061 Lol! we dont even rate a 1 season wonder like him. Hes a nobody in Manchester & probably one of the most unlikable football player.
@@leejones3061 United fans ignore him. What planet you been on?
Only player despised/ignored by every club he played for. His BT bullshit is his saving grace but it's hypocrisy, smoke and mirrors. How can he call out players for not making runs, not tracking back, not putting in a challenge? He needs to read his own book🙄🤡🍆💩
I'm sad BT have put so much into rehabilitating this douchebag when better, more deserving players without his savings, without his income get ignored....SAF
The audacity of this guy. He gets paid fortunes for being injured, and not very good for 4 years, but when Newcastle need him, he calls playing 15 mins "putting my body on the line". Big round of applause for the hero. I'm a Tottenham fan, who has been to St James Park a few times. They adore their strikers, this guy should have given them everything, and when he doesn't, he still wants praise.
People left work to see his unveiling because they thought they had found their next great striker... Those poor Geordies
Owens issue was simple he didn't want to retire early due to injury so played on any way he could newcatle where fools at the time to spend 16 million on him just typical of Newcastle Owen was never the same once he ruptured his hamstring in 2 places in 99 he's admitted he was afraid to make runs or get into the right channels knowing if he made a run he could tear his muscle he comes out of plaster starts playing before building up muscle strength in the leg then his knee goes at the point he's damaged goods just like Owen Hargreaves was 3 seaons at united and never really played
He's not after praise just telling it how it is more fool newcastle for wasting four seasons on him can't blame owen for that they could have sold or released him sooner but no they kept paying him for basically one seasons worth of appearances in 4 yeara 😂
Leave my Michael alone. He's a brave soldier. Did you know that he once cut his thumb and cried to Sir Bobby who gave him some plasters before the game and then Michael played, with a cut thumb. He was a brave boy. He even played on after that big bully boy, Roy, growled at him. Imagine that for bravery. I dare you to do the same. Cut thumb too. Putting his thumb on the line while being shouted at by Roy Keane. My Michael was just too brave.
100% agree. He writes a book admitting he wouldn't make runs, wouldn't sprint for fear of injury. He's fit but refused to play but it's Shearer being unhappy at relegation?
Total PoS, LFC fans see right through his excuses snd BS. Resentment cos NUFC bought him? Don't leave LFC for Madrid then. This guy takes ZERO responsibility for his douchebag, entitled BS....
Whose side are you on?

owens, shearer is of course a dirty rat as always. finding blame is one thing, but finding owen though to blame was unfair and stupid.

He said he had a strong personality lol he is as dull as dish water
Which one are you talking about???.....they are both tea bags making their third dip in the personality tea cup.
You clearly dont know what a strong personality is
Better persomality than u numbnuts

Big fergie fan but he only brought in Owen because he wanted some tips on horses 😂
That thing he says about how top footballers never blame themselves is absolute nonsense. The world class players always will blame themselves if things go wrong and always humble enough to say 'I need to improve'. He says the blaming mentality is what gets them to the top lol? I'd say it's the opposite
he didnt say never u absolute idiotic weassel. idiotic moron!
but players will always blame others, a lot, he has done it too.
@@zr8118 "Owen ass licker over here, people" maybe it's you who is fucking bored. Trying to round up some kind of self justification lynch mob are ya? He can back who the fuck he likes, just like you can, just like I can. Get over the disappointment real quick eh?
why Alan Shearer blaming Jason manford?
Shame Michael couldn't be bothered to tell the truth in his first book. He wants to bring this up in his second. I couldn't really stand the sight of him after he signed for Man U. Michael has already said himself that he hated being at Newcastle and couldn't wait to leave so I can understand why Shearer blames him for Newcastle going down. As a team they just were not good enough to survive.
How was it Michael Owens fault?
@@philipmerewood2298 Hes not exactly saying that, hes saying that micheal really could not be bothered at newcastle united...please read.
@@zr8118 Thank you you Philip. She wasn't blaming it all on Michael.
When shearer became manager Owen blames him for going doen
@@philipmerewood2298 Because he was a record-breaking marquee signing who didn’t play
Shame Owen ruined his legacy completely, it's easy to forget how good he was in his prime and i do have some sympathy for him with the injuries but the comments he's made lately just portray him as a completely bitter man.
He isn't completely to blame for Newcastle going down in 09 but his half assed performances didn't help, that is when he played and wasn't collecting a check on the treatment table, to openly admit that you literally didn't give a shit and couldn't wait to retire while a club put their faith in him is pathetic.
Ever continued to show up for work, even when you don't want to work there anymore?
I have had jobs I didn't like and couldn't be bothered...but still went in and did my work to the best of my ability.
I suppose, those that would be less professional would expect others to be the same.
@@yt.personal.identification Exactly, summed up perfectly pretty much man.
David Aspinall football is a game that you have to be fully invested to play good. Micheal Owen injury meant he didn’t make the run he would have and sometimes he wouldn’t be bothered to.
@@ozymandias8346 ikr, I went for a kick-about the other day, and wasn't into it.
My foot refused to contact the ball at all, until I committed fully.
...or maybe some people are differrent to your very specific reaction that fits 100% of players everytime.
Myself, I will still fight for the man next to me once the battle begins, even if I have a problem with the higher ups. You obviously would struggle to separate the issues.
Owen is why I got into football. That goal vs Argentina. Made me a Liverpool fan
OMG! Same.
What a thing to admit!
Do you hang around in playgrounds too?
Same. It was the goal against Brazil tho at 2002 world cup when I was 8. england lost, but I became a Michael fan then on and realise he plays for Liverpool. Now I've been a Liverpool fan for more than 15 years.
@@youngbae5187 Do you boo the national anthem then, like the rest of the moronic Pool fans?
He would bore the arse off ya. Got paid 120k a week for living in the treatment room in Newcastle for years rent free.
Burncourtable
Awesome
3:08 Couldn't disagree with him more. There's genuinely nothing wrong with admitting when you've had a bad day or done something wrong. You'll never learn from mistakes and if you don't acknowledge any them or misfortunes, you'll never be respected. Hence why Owen isn't given he's played for such big clubs over his career and got an impressive England record.
And there you have the reason on video as to why the England team performed so badly at tournaments, because there where probably others who shared Owens arrogant attitude of " it's never my fault ".
I don't think it was so much shearer blamed him for Newcastle going down, just for being un professional and not playing. Newcastle were pretty much already down shearer only took over for 8 games and Owen faked an injury.
Cannot believe any professional would admit to hiding on the field (allegedly due to his achilles issues) and expecting people to not criticize the fact he rarely played , when he did, he avoided the ball but happily took a hundred and twenty grand a week for the privilege. Then admits he only went to Newcastle for the money, then slaggs them off - perhaps he should return 1/2 his wages (only 6 million - that's half his wages). Recent interviews all done with a straight face as if he did no wrong ... incredible lack of morality. As for Shearer, the manager of the club, he would have been well and truly fu%$ed off. Its simply ...sell my book time!! Owen clearly loves cash and will do anything for it !
The problem I have is wanting it both ways (he should own that Shearer is right to be disappointed) and his hypocrisy should put an end to his punditry career. Now if he chose honesty and for instance defended Pogba, Eriksen, etc saying it's smart to simply play safe and wait for the next big money move, then he'd at least be interesting.
Yes Absolutely,
This guy couldn't be more wrong, shearer was the type of guy to see his mistakes and learn definetly not one to blame everyone else.
Owen to Newcastle is like any team taking a punt on Bale. You can’t take a player once they have consistent injuries, it’s just too risky. Owen had a lot of miles on the clock, starting his career so early.
Owen didn’t have injuries when he joined Newcastle
@@cummerchant542 for sure he did
@@pabloenrikay I meant before
No he doesn't. He blames Mike Ashley for Newcastles failure. We blame you for coming to the club for a big pay day and never committing to the club or the area. Getting injured and moving back to Liverpool for his recovery.
Shearer literally put a roof over his head for months when he first moved to Newcastle while he procrastinated about moving his home and family here. He took the money and ran.
Absolute rat.
Owens legs had gone before he even left liverpool he was a great poacher but newcastle were mad for signing him for that money.
He was actually quite decent at RM, if i recall.
Didnt play too much though, strong competition
Exactly. As a youngster he was unbelievable. Best English talent and potential I have ever seen. Speed and finishing came so easy to him. Boy Wonder. Such a shame
He actually bagged 16 goals at Madrid in limited minutes. So his stock was high and Newcastle weren't in a position to get anyone close to his level. That's when transfer fees go up.
@@et34t34fdf 36 league appearances 13 goals for RM...in that league with 2 dominating teams, that's average...
@@zr8118 "36 league appearances". yeah sure, when most of them were 10-15mins appearances. way to distort the truth with your lies.
Owen had the best goals-to-mins record at RM at that time, even better than fat Ron and Raul. But was not fancied due to RM Politics and Racism.
Michael Owen wrote in his book: When Giggs was about to make Assist to him for his Man City goal,all he focused on was getting the 1st Touch right.
For that Owen has my Respect.Too many players these days dont even think about 1st Touch.
U believe him?
A person can never learn from his failures if he doesn’t recognise them. It’s why Owen didn’t grow as a player. The best players are hard on themselves so they can improve on their failings by adjusting and moving on.
Michael. You know what liverpool supporters think of you.
Ishaddiah God's Chosen I said it before but every club he’s played for the fans despise him - pool - left them in his prime and played for Utd, Madrid - didn’t like Spain, language, culture, Newcastle- sicknote beneath him , Utd bit part player , pool history and waining player Stoke - crap
@TopMmaWear TMW yh but he went to united
I'm a Liverpool fan for more than 50 years now and I hate all this grudge crap that you plastic fuckers come up with, Michael done good for us.
stop with the bad vibes bollox!
I loved him don't label all of us haters Liverpool never wanted to bring him back why should he care about them in the end they let him down.
Wanker,
Take it easy, you are the two best PLAYERS not just strikers of the last decades. Also a Ballon Dor winner and an almost winner, the latter one with 283 goals in the league, many goals ahead of everybody.
The first football jersey I wore was Owen's Liverpool number 10 shirt, when he signed for United, I removed the Liverpool logo from the shirt and threw it inside the dust bin.
Some roadside beggar is wearing it right now.
Why did u throw away the logo?
And you're a liverpool fan? Why wouldn't you just remove his name?
@@drex5160 because I did not wanted to disrespect Liverpool logo.

This "drama" is childish
Spot on.
You can blame the media for that. These guys are just being honest. The fact that folk feel the need to jump into one or the others camp to back them is the problem. People fall out, people don't get on. Move on.
Michael Owen is the poster boy for people who blame everything else for there poor decisions
He is right tho about newcastle big club as in fans and stadium
I don't think being a one city team makes you a big club. It's the trophy room that makes you a big club. Leicester city are bigger than Newcastle.
Has Shearer responded yet to Owen saying Shearer wanted to go to Liverpool under Sir Bobby Robson?
Yes he replied. He said I got two words for ya. S#CK IT!!!
Degenerate so thats a no then
Wanting to leave a club to move your career forward is one thing, but to fake injuries and have your sights set on your next big contract is another.
Michael Owen is a complete fuck-nut, the little man can't help but talk complete bollocks!!!
I'M more impressed that Rafa wanted a 34 year old Shearer over micheal looool.
@@zr8118 Owen was finished, Shearer was not
2:13 hes a strong personality and SO AM I . LOOOOOOL
same here I laughed out loud!
Hahaha I laughed at that point too.
No Name Seems like your personality isn’t too much better either.
I think you're confusing strong personality, with charisma. Somebody can be very boring, but still have a strong personality.
Dan Cool story, bro. Zzzzzzzzz
Overplayed money grabbing players. Play for the shirt not the money
Forza223 Bowe why it’s his job. They have a short career and should make as much money as they can.
At that point he had peaked playing for Liverpool and Real Madrid. He took a step down.
Newcastle Utd were not relegated because a half fit Michael Owen could not play for them. Shearer was a Hollywood coach and it failed.
This is great
poor Mo. every move he makes just seems to make him even less likeable.
afunny username it was his fault
He was likable when moved from Liverpool to Real Madrid... then he moved to Newcastle... and then United
does it matter if players fall out? THEY'RE HUMANS! Humans don't get along. the romantic notion that it's all about passion and love - well for fans it is. and for players, largely. But for players also it's as much about having a job and doing the best one can in that job.
Great book just listened to it
So in a BT interview, Owen talks of his injuries and completely understandably acknowledges how he didn't make run, didn't put himself in a position where a teammate would even think he'd run in order to avoid injury...and yet he wants us to think Shearer is imagining that he might choose to miss a game for the exact same reason? I don't blame any player for putting themselves before the club....but own it.
He never wanted to sign for us we were his second choice he wanted to go to Liverpool
man alone Michael Owen
Great book !!!
'When they don't score, they hardly ever win' - Michael Owen

Left Liverpool because he thought they wouldn't regularly qualify for the champs league.

Understand partly his comments on loyalty. That people in "normal" jobs aren't loyal. If you worked for coke and pepsi offered you a job on more money / better role, there is no reason not to take it. But if you were at Liverpool from a child, then signing for utd is questionable. That's more akin to coke paying for your food and schooling, then you working for pepsi.

that's the best and most positive suggestion around.
You weren't responsible for NUFC going down, but you certainly did NOTHING to prevent, even though 100% fit for play. How is it that NOT ONE OF YOUR FROMER TEAM'S FANBASE'S can stand your face?
It really was the fault of Newcastle to bring him in when they did, Owen's injuries had clearly broken him by the mid 00's. And that injury at the 2006 World Cup when he was just looking like he was getting back put the icing on the cake.
In terms of "Who's to blame" for Newcastle going down that season, it's the poor performances that put them in the hole to begin with, as well as the obviously heinous Mike Ashley. I dont know if we should all immediately take Shearer's side just because he's a much more likeable character than Owen, I reckon Owen makes some good points.
It's actually the other way around! i have respect for Alan Shearer btw
“Needless to say, I had the last laugh.”
Oh pull the other one honest be honest then .
Omg! Michael Owen is very boring to listen to! 😴
So is this comment don't watch it simple
Real unfair on Shearer to blame one guy for the relegation of a whole team it's a "team" game it's a whole of team's fault not one guy
you mean, except for the fact he didn't want to play, cos he didn't want to get injured so he could get a good deal. Meanwhile pocketing 120k a week?
Berzerker King 13 not really the team was shite as it was even with Owen who wasn’t very good either but him not bothering to play in such an important game because he was focused on his next contract
@Rob G he wasn't injured. He didnt want to play so HE DIDNT GET INJURED.
@Rob G its strange that its only the owen boot lickers saying otherwise. He collected 120k to not even try.
He doesn't. But Owens attitude, Barton conduct was typical. Shearer wasn't to blame, he just wanted/expected professional footballers to give 100%. They didn't. Owen was WORST of the offenders. Hiding from ball and not making runs is almost unimaginable but then refusing to play?
STFU Owen, dirtbag. Ridiculous he's now the big I am pundit who has audacity to call our players not making runs, not covering, not showing for ball...he f**kin hid from ball🙄🤡🍆💩
Atleast Shearer has the decency to keep is thoughts private, not giving interviews to any f××ker who'll listen just so he can sell his shitty book.
Mug. Melt. Boring. Mercenary. Injured. Feel free to add any other words to the list that you associate with Michael Owen lol

Newcastle are just a horrific club to play for no wonder he didn't want to play
@@boycie2.099 played for them have you? What gives you that conclusion?
Siding with Michael. Shearer was a shit manager of his hometown club and got embarrassed.
He had 8 games to avoid relegation with a squad of players with Owen’s attitude of not wanting to put themselves on the line for the club. He can’t win anything with that
He is right
pulls a hamstring at 13:45
Scored some great goals though 👍
Dont like what owen represented at newcastle but I do believe their is some truth it was he says about shearer. He played politics at newcastle since he walked through the door, refusing to sign unless he got Ferdinands no.9 shirt and took all the penalties, did gullit seen through him and dropped him then got sacked I believe he helped get sir Bobby sacked, not a coincidence that as soon as sir bobby started benching him and sobbing him did he then get axed have tou seen the photo of shearer sitting behind robson on the bench glaring at him behind his back smugly? Shearer thought he could take the managers job and be a bigger hero in the eyes of the deluded nufc fans but FAILED.

The sad thing was Shearer was only given 8 games to save a club packed to the brim with mercenaries who were more worried about their bank accounts than their position in the league
You were good for 4 years mate
May be wrong but I reckon Shearers nose was also put out of joint as Owen was on 120k a week a huge sum at the time and more than Al was ever paid as a player. Fergie said he was motivated by money but that was probably sour grapes
There is a reason Shearer was a 5 minute gaffer.
Michael Owen.. As HE says: 'A strong personality?' (Does incredibly boring + stupifyingly droning = strong??).. As HE says: 'Was clearly way too good for Newcastle?' (Despite that they were the only ones willing to take a punt on him at the time.. and DID.. a fuckin BIG one overall!!!).. As HE says: 'Someone who'd never let anyone down?' (Although he did.. he just DID.).. NOW, lets REALLY be honest.. Forget that he DID undoubtedly burst on to the scene as a phenomenal teen.. Rafa still didn't want him as part of his Liverpool TEAM (and quickly won stuff WITHOUT him!!!).. HE thinks he's gods gift (even celebrating himself crazily when putting goals past a young teen in practice.. (which BIG NEV - a REAL ledge of the game - picked him up on!!!).. and HE really still doesn't get that no-one in football loves him as they do so many others (and, moreover that there's a reason for this!), and so he REALLY thinks its all just a 'public misconception' based on another former player + manager (Yes, Shearer!.. you know, Michael, one of those still-loved legends!!) just 'blaming him', and 'spreading the dirt' about him??? Point is, WHO are they, we all, going to be inclined to listen to and believe??? (PS: I actually CAN'T listen to Michael Owen, any more.. I just CAN'T!!!)...
Hang on a minute. If he was on 120k a week playing for Newcastle between 2005 and 09..that's 4 years. So 4 × 52 *120k = 25m approx...and that's not including monies banked whilst playing for Liverpool, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Stoke city...
I'm sorry but how can he be broke after amassing all that money the vast majority of people will never get ? Throwing all the people he worked with over the years into the bin just so that he can make more money from his book ?
Hes obviously not stupid, controversy sells.putting out a book praising everyone wont result in much sales..I just think it's disgusting he would slag off teammates and managers who also gave their life to the game just to line his own pockets....
I didn't really understand the I'll feeling towards him before this week but now I really do.....

Nope. He blames you not playing when fit to save the team that'd paid your wages for so many missed games.
You COULDN'T risk a move and play a game or 3 to save Newcastle...yet its cos of Nasty Al and relegation???
Owen is delusional. He's at opposite end of integrity/taking personal responsibility gauge. He blamed NUFC for buying him?

Jog on mate. Regardless of what folks make of his time at Newcastle, Owen in his prime for LFC and England was easily one of the best, fastest, and most feared, strikers in the world. He was hardly freaking mediocre buddy, and if not for his injuries, he alongside Wayne Rooney would likely have won England some serious silverware.
Owen used to be good, he just burnt out at 25
I've read the book. It's not a riot, but it's well written and honest. Michael's assessment of Newcastle United in the book is spot on. It's a great football club in the narrow minds of its delusional hardcore of mongoloid fans only. In every other respect it's a mid-to-bottom table team with little or no prospect of glory locally or abroad, in the past, now, or ever (neither of those are direct quotes from the book). His take on fans is also accurate. There are the casual fans, the devoted but rational fans, and then there are the fanatics. This latter cohort of unwashed, intellectually stunted, mentally impoverished, plebs are like an unfair tax on everything that's descent and good about sport in general, and football in particular. To such people, loyalty to one means a deep and abiding hatred of the rest. Such people have nothing, and thus can offer nothing.
Shearer, the guy who coached Newcastle to 1 win in 8 games 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shearer, the guy with the most Premier League goals record, that probably won't be beat...
(Unless Sergio Aguero signs another City contract).
Get a grip you little plum!
@@G_Linka And the guy who didnt care about his country but played for the tribe instead, what a wanker.
Shearer, the guy that never managed a club in his life put his reputation on the line to help his local team, clearly no managerial experience takes a toll and they went down
@@regiment589 as if England even matters anymore, its not like we are gonna win anything
Shearer retired from England duty at 30 yrs old, which many players have done before & will continue to do...
Paul Scholes comes to mind when he retired England at 29.
So to be critical of that is total bullshit!
💵💵💵
Owen still injured 🤭🤭🤭
JUDAS
Owen was far and away a better player then shearer amd was best player in the world fir a few years and from 17 to 25 one of best in the world but he had terrible injuries. Shearer had injuries to and didn't play when injured! Shearer put himself first to! Shearer had THREE YEARS out not playing and getting paid!! THREE YEARS!! To say Owen didnt want to play is a disgrace, he wanted to play so bad he played at stoke coz he loved football, from being real Madrid best scorer in the season there, that shows the humility of the guy! Problem is scoursers and Geordies are very bitter unhappy miserable out of date old fashioned out of place not very educated people and they hate everyone and dont no how to be hsppy have fun and live life so they take it out on people always have always will, they even hate the beatles LA and in a scouser La
Does anyone really care about SHEARER or OWEN...
COUPLE OF FANNYS
Micheal.
Utter crap from Owen.......again!
Of course Shearer wants his best players on the pitch when fighting relegation. Who wouldn't?
Owen was paid very good money by Newcastle to play football and when the club needed him he downed tools. That's disrespectful and dishonest.
Owen's rant about blaming anyone except himself again demonstrates his dishonesty and narcissistic nature!
Shearer's the type that you'd want in the trenches with you....... Owen would be running away blaming you for the enemy firing shots at him as he goes!
Spot on Sir !
Shearer was dreadful "manager".
@@regiment589 Maybe he was. Maybe he wasn't. At least he was trying, which is more than Owen did!
@@davec9232 Was he? He didnt even know how to run a training. He failed and blamed everyone beside himself. Coward, nothing more.
@@regiment589 I assume your "was he" does not relate to my comments about whether Shearer was a "dreadful manager" or not, consider I didn't offer an opinion on that! I simply said "maybe he was, maybe he wasn't".
Therefore, I assume your "was he" response is in regard to whether Shearer was "trying" to keep Newcastle up, or not. I really can't believe Shearer wouldn't try. Maybe he wasn't good at the job, but I feel sure he would have tried to keep Newcastle up.
You sound a little too bitter to give a levelheaded and thoughtful response. I can understand that - people get very emotional about football.
He wishes he was Alan shearer
