Owen denies Capello rift
Michael Owen has denied criticising the tactical approach of England manager Fabio Capello.
Reports on Friday had suggested that the Newcastle striker was unaware of his role after being sent on as a second-half subsitiute in Wednesday’s 1-0 friendly defeat to France.
However, Owen has refuted these suggestions and insists that his post-match quotes have been twisted to create tension within the national camp.
Owen went on to reveal that this is not the first time that quotes he has given in good faith have been used in a disparaging context to create a misleading story.
Owen was also keen to point out that it is not in his nature to be openly critical of management structures in public, and insists that he will continue his fight to win back a starting place in the national team.
