*The tragedy of Michael Owen is, he only knew one way to play: Race at defenders with supersonic speed, completely leave them flat footed or lying in the dust; the goalkeeper mesmerized, while he rounds them all and smashes the ball into the net.* The crowds went wild and his Liverpool, Real Madrid (initially at least) and England managers loved it too. They kept encouraging him to play that way and unfortunately they never trained him in other aspects such as, one-two passes, crossing, heading, running into spaces, fake runs, opportunistic goals, etc., nor did he learn himself. Speed running was the only way he knew. Unfortunately, doing this day in and day out blew out his hamstrings and he was never the same and could not regain that speed. He therefore slowly devolved to mediocrity since he knew no other way to play, unlike other speed demons in their prime like Arjen Robben and Cristiano Ronaldo. Other speedy players knew other styles besides racing at defenders, leaving them in the dust and scoring, while poor Michael Owen only knew that one way. Poor guy even hired speed trainers after his surgeries, but his legs never allowed it again. I blame Liverpool and also Real Madrid for not fully developing or training him-- overusing him in his youth and completely blowing his legs out. He could have been a legend and a world-class player, talked about for generations to come, if only he had better managers, in his formative phase. 😪

In an ideal world Owen should have retired at 25 and had his mouth stitched up.

Coming back from two goals down and winning by 5-2 requires a lot of mental strength and that too against Spain. It's like coming from behind and winning after following on in a test match or successfully chasing 350 runs in an ODI.

They comfortably beat everyone lol it wasn’t even close

What happened no one else show up?

I saw Brewster as the new competition for mmbape the boom lost

Worries why Brewster has never broken into any EPL team considering the impact made by most of his teammates in this competition considering he was the best here

Angel Gomes, MGB and ESR just won the U21 Euros together 😁

Homam Tareq 🇮🇶😂❤

These ancient players were so good compared to our current ones

How underrated as he won a ballon dor

Over the past few years, he has been still searching for his lost ball 🤣🤣🤣

I hope any of these players are playing at the senior level

🐒

Jamaica national team 😂

La santa trinidad (ronaldo, owen, shevshenko)

Good video bloody awful music.

now steve cooper has signed gibbs-white for forest and he’s on of their best payers. I’m still sure angel gomes will make it at some point as well, it would be a waste.

England is the only country who have junior World cups in Both football and cricket 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆. ⚽ 🏏 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Here I saw a rare rare scenario, England when they were 0:2 down, they worked their life off to pull those back, in which level of England team has done , in a Final ?

Wow that what i love a magic player an play 🎩 🥰

How stupid must you be to call him underrated? Stupid video title.

The England under age teams are so much more enjoyable to watch than the seniors , their freedom and energy is refreshing to watch !

Aguero said he was a fan of Michael Owen 💯 can clearly see here why 🔥

Welcome indonesia world cup u 21

Not under rated

LEVEL

Rhian Brewster is now lost kinda

Best england team I have seen at all levels. No egos, no media hype, no fans jumping on the bandwaggon. That performance against spain was unreal. Remember watching it even going 2 - 0 down there was no panic

No wonder this team won, lots of players here now killing it...good to see!
