Manchester United had major concerns over Michael Owen's groin injury, it has been revealed.
The Sun says Owen was sent to hospital for a scan on his injured groin yesterday amid fears over the seriousness of his injury.
Manchester United striker Owen went into training after limping out of Wednesday night's 2-1 win over Wolfsburg. But the club's medical staff were taking no risks and quickly sent him off for the scan.
Boss Alex Ferguson said after the game Owen could miss three weeks.
here we go again.
lame horse.
he could be the worse no.7 ever to wear the united shirt. hope not
Nothing to worry one lah cos its not serious... Fergie already said he would be back in 2, 3 weeks and with the international break to come, he would be back by the time they play Liverpool... I won't be surprise if he is fit to play Bolton as well...
Michael Owen in line for swift Manchester United return as Sir Alex Ferguson allays fears of long injury lay-off
Withdrawn: Michael Owen is replaced by Dimitar Berbatov against Wolfsburg
Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed that Michael Owen should be fit for Manchester United's Premier League match with Bolton at Old Trafford on October 17.
It had been feared Owen would be missing for a minimum of three weeks after limping out of United's Champions League win against Wolfsburg on Wednesday with a groin strain.
However, Ferguson has revealed the damage is not quite as extensive as he had first feared.
'We expect him to be available for the next game, it certainly won't be three weeks,' Ferguson said.
'We are quite pleased. Obviously it is understandable we wanted to take precautions given his past history but we are quite comfortable with the situation.
'He did miss training earlier this week so maybe we should have left him out. But he wanted to play and I wanted him to play. Thankfully it is not a big problem for us.'
Return: Edwin van der Sar is close to a Manchester United comeback
Ferguson also revealed that Edwin van der Sar and Rafael Da Silva were both edging towards full fitness after a broken finger and shoulder surgery respectively, although neither player is in contention to face Sunderland at Old Trafford tomorrow evening.
lolx
injured again?
wth sia
owen was brought free to man utd and his worth is already shown when he scored that last minute goal against the big spenders man city... even for the rest of his 2 years if he is injured, he is already worth alot by scoring that goal.

I think it takes some intelligence to understand what he is saying lah... Though he is not a United fan but I find his reason very true leh... But then again, you are not a United fan so you won't know what it means... And should United manage to beat Chelsea to the title by just 1 point... lol... Perhaps you will come to realise what it meant by then...

Yeah, its definitely a number game... either 1 or 3 and not 4... Maybe your team gets 4 points who knows... lol
And like I said... it takes some intelligence to understand what he was saying... Unfortunately you don't get it... but too bad not my fault...

intelligence? more like a dick head to understand...so manu drew this last game, perhaps if they got beaten by a point they should be blaming this game for that lost point?....or be grateful for the last minute sunderland own goal if they won by a point?..there will be many other last minute victories or defeats beyond that owen goal...stop glorifying owen.......

Well, too bad it seems you can cock this, dick that all you like but you can't change his opinion and that of the others as well... Continue to be bitter about it all and it still not going to make a difference... lol
Too bad, the record is still hold by Number 7 of Liverpool.
Mr Harry Kengster who keng a CL medal after not playing most of his career in Liverpool.
a few important goals (like the winner he scored against man city) is enough to justify signing him.
