Owen out with another injury

In a similar fashion to Robin Van Persie of the Arsenal Gunners, Michael Owen cannot make do without injury.  Just as he was recovering from a groin injury sustained in an October 2nd match, Owen suffered a hamstring injury and will be out for "a few weeks." 

It's not going great," he told BBC Radio 5live. "I had a bit of a tight groin a while ago and I've trained for a week preparing for last night's game but then I had a setback with a different muscle injury.

"Unfortunately, that ruled me out for last night and will rule me out for a few weeks as well.
"I got injured in the cup final and then subsequently this season I was in the squad for the first 10 games or so. But unfortunately, because of a training ground injury the other day, I'm going to be out for the next few weeks, which is disappointing.

"It's all part and parcel of football. Everyone gets injured. Hopefully, I can come back and be as strong as ever."

Owen has suffered a catalogue of hamstring injuries, the previous one coming in the Carling Cup final at Wembley at the end of February which ruled him out for the rest of the season.
