Brian Marwood believes Manchester City midfielder Owen Hargreaves has England future
Brian Marwood has gone on to admit that Manchester City midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Owen-Hargreaves-c28918 could still have a very strong future for England.
The thirty year old midfielder, was offloaded by Manchester United, following his inability to play for than five games for the team in the three years that he spent with the team.
In order to boost their squad’s depth and to comply with UEFA’s fair play rules, Manchester City went on to land the player and since then have realized that the midfielder is quite exceptional to say the least.
The player has had his fair share of injury problems in recent weeks and this has caused many to fear that his best years are now in his past.
Marwood seems to think that Hargreaves can still push for an international spot and should he be recalled to the team, he could make a very useful contribution to the side.
"We are all hopeful he can stay healthy because he can make an enormous contribution not only to Manchester City, but potentially to the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 national team."
"Everybody is delighted for Owen because it has been well documented the injury problems he has had over recent years," Marwood added.
"He has worked hard to get back to the level of fitness at which he can compete in the Premier League."
Hargreaves has currently only managed to make one start for City so far and that start was in the Carling Cup against Birmingham City. During the game, Hargreaves opened the scoring for his side and even played a complete sixty minutes, without picking up
any injuries. During the game, the midfielder looked to be livelier than he had been in years and seemed like he could easily go on and play for the ninety minutes.
Fabio Capello has recently come forth and revealed that he is quite disappointed with the situation that the England national team are in, since he just can’t seem to get the midfield to operate as well as he would like.
Keeping that in mind, it seems more than likely for the manager to give the veteran a chance at running the show for England once again.
Hargreaves could be brought into the side to add some experience and stability to the team, in order to ensure the team progressing smoothly and later on, once all the squad member are fit, Hargreaves could be utilized as a substitute once again.
Nonetheless, the ultimate decision lays with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Capello and should he deem the player worthy, he could be a part of the team in the near future.
