From the BBC's gossip section:

Realistic or just more rubbish journalism?

and on the same page, an intriguing bit of goss:

One of England's most popular footballers - a Premier League star and England international - owes a staggering £1m in gambling debts. (Daily Express)

 

[MoyesBlueWhiteArmy]

Rubbish journalism. Cant see Moyes going for him and 8m? Your having a laugh

 

[kenada_blue]

I've always said we should have a punt on him. Quality attacking player with lots potencial - if a little injury prone.

That's obviously Owen

 

[Mogger]

Quality player worth a bid with city falling apart

 

[Mogger]

I think the gambler is someone like terry

 

[tezzathelezza]

Defo J Terry. Thats why he was cryin after Moscow. Had a little flutter on Chelski, The little jumped up [Poor language removed]. Dont like him one bit.

 

[Vim Fuego]

There's no way that DM will be prepared to pay £8M for him, it's a non starter at that price.

 

[McBain]

Doesnt Owen own the gambling thingo? And wasnt it Rooney who lost 250k or something?

And as for Johnson.....

HELLA YEH

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Haven't seen enough of Johnson to give an opinion as to his value.

Haven't seen enough of Johnson to give an opinion as to his value.

I'm in the same boat.

not been overly impressed by him when I've seen him but I have Man City friends who think he's the second coming.

 

[ToxtethBlue]

8 million for a player who's only had one year of experience in his whole career is very risky in my opinion. He's definatly talented and has alot of attributes going for him but there are better more experienced options out there.

 

[tadpole]

He's a very exciting player. He'd be a great signing for us.

 

[kenada_blue]

I think 8mill is a gamble I'd probably take. He's future potential and I think Moyes can mould him into a fine player. He was a key player when Citeh were [Poor language removed] hot at the start of the season - really good agasint the Mancs when they beat them - and scored a few times also. He got injured and then Citeh went a bit average.

If we did get him and he turns [Poor language removed] hot that 8mill would soon double.
