Put your money on 'El Nino' bagging more goals than United's new no. 7, says the former Reds goal ace...
Former Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has admitted he is hoping Fernando Torres can outscore Michael Owen in next season’s Premier League.
Owen will line up for Liverpool’s bitter rivals Manchester United next season and whilst Fowler said that he wishes him well, he added that he was hoping Torres does even better.
“I’m surprised Michael has gone to United but he’s a very good player and I hope he does well,” Fowler told the Daily Star.
“But, if he scores a lot of goals, I hope Torres scores even more.
“It’s a bit of a sticky situation for us, with Michael going there, as I don’t want United to do well.”
Fowler, who now plys his trade in Australia with North Queensland Fury, also tipped Liverpool to claim Premier League glory this time around.
“Rafael Benitez is a very good manager and he’ll be looking to put right a few wrongs last season,” added Fowler.
“The way Liverpool finished the league last season was brilliant but unfortunately, United’s finish was similar.
“But I have been saying for some time now, that this will be Liverpool’s season – they will win the league.”
