Michael Owen: "I'd like to think that everyone was quite surprised with my medical.
"I passed my medical and I've obviously passed them before, and my fitness is high.
"A lot is made out of it but I certainly don't feel like I'm injury prone."
Apparently "a lot has been made" of the fact - for every game Owen played for Newcastle United he missed TWO games.
Mind you, he never missed ONE race meeting ... so he could be right.
