Owen Says 'Throw Away The Form Book'!

Michael Owen: "Listen, we sat in the dressing room thinking, 'We have just won two back-to-back games and if we win on Saturday against Fulham, we will be top half, and then we have got Wigan at home - if we can get six points, we will be in the top six'.

"Then it doesn't work like that. We lost at Fulham and we only drew with Wigan and you think, 'Oh no, now we have got Chelsea away and Spurs and Liverpool coming up', and all of a sudden, it looks hard.

"And then we go and get a draw at Chelsea, so gone are the days where we are looking at fixtures.

"It is obviously a big game and a winnable game for both teams. I suppose they will be thinking the same thing - they are on their home patch.

"But hopefully, we can go there and get the points."

"In general, when I have played, I have felt good.

"Unfortunately, a lot of my goals have come as consolation goals. I scored three, four, five goals on the spin in successive games, and most of them were consolation goals.

"It is always nice to come on and score and it to be important in a 1-0 win, so let's hope we can get a few of those important goals in the coming weeks."
