Fergie seems willing to overlook Michael Owen’s appalling injury record, unlike Big Sam, who wasn’t prepared to take a risk on signing a player who might not be able to give Blackburn at least 30 games next season.
I understand Allardyce’s argument -Â he has fewer top-class forwards than United, so buying Owen would have been a much bigger gamble. And Big Sam ain’t a gambler, as the video below proves…
