GAMBLOG UK - WE ARE ENGLAND - Owen Hitting Form For Newcastle

Shearer on Owen
Shearer hails Owen partnership

"The partnership is going well and if we can both stay fit then we will cause people problems," vowed Shearer. "We both have great belief in our own ability and our games suit each other.

With him in the team you know you always have a chance of getting goals and he showed that. We said before the game we needed to win to keep going after beating Arsenal.

We've taken seven points from the last three games so things are looking good for us. I am one goal away now (from the record) so hopefully I won't have to wait too much longer for it.

The main thing was the three points. We said we needed to build on the win over Arsenal last weekend and we did just that."

Souness On Shearer and Owen Partnership
Souness hails his own deadly duo

"At half time someone mentioned how dangerous Michael and Alan looked together. I said - I wish they were both 25.

I've worked with some great strike partnerships both as a manager and a player. I think Kenny Dalglish and Ian Rush were a very special partnership. Similarly, Roberto Mancini and Gianluca Vialli were two great attackers who complemented each other well. Michael and Alan are in that class. You couldn't slide a piece of paper between any of those players. In terms of their football, they all gave something very special to their teams."

how can you say shearer is a decent striker...pathetic comment..........the best striker the prem has ever seen!!!
