Mark Lawrenson: What sort of reception will Man Utd’s Michael Owen get now off Liverpool FC fans at Anfield?

I WONDER what kind of reception Michael Owen will get at Anfield next month if he continues to score goals like the late, late winner against Manchester City on Sunday?

To be fair, the strike was just what Sir Alex Ferguson brought the former Liverpool striker to Old Trafford for.

It was a class ball and a typically class finish from Michael who had made a couple of brilliant runs leading up to his goal.

It will also be interesting to see what Fabio Capello does in the lead up to the World Cup if Owen keeps producing the goods.

Manchester City felt aggrieved but in reality they can have few complaints.

A substitution had been made in stoppage time and City shouldn’t have spent so long celebrating their equaliser.
