Michael Owen

by Randy Julias from SMAN 5 Bandung


I have a favorite football player. He is Michael Owen. I think some people know Michael Owen. He is the best player in the world in his time. Michael Owen's full name is Michael James Owen. He was born in Chester on December 14th, 1979 in England. Owen married his longtime girlfriend, Louise Bonsall, in June of 2005. Owen and Bonsall first met in primary school. Their daughter Gemma Rose was born on May 1st, 2003, and a son, James Michael, was born on February 6th, 2006.

He has nicknamed the Wonder boy because he has a speed that is above average. Michael Owen started his first career at Liverpool's academy and made his debut for Liverpool in 1996 and played until 2004 and scored 118 goals for Liverpool. This was the best time for Michael Owen because he won the Ballon d'Or award. Ballon d'Or is an award given to the player who is the best football player in the world.

In 2004 Michael Owen moved to Real Madrid but his performance went down because of recurring injuries. In Real Madrid he scored 13 goals in 35 matches. After that in 2005 he moved to Newcastle United and only lasted for 4 years,because Newcastle United degraded. And in 2009 until now Michael Owen played for Manchester United and Michael Owen has been part of its best performances. I hope Michael Owen can be the best again.
