The former Manchester City midfielder has come out and admitted that he might never play for England again due to his injury troubles as well as his failure to play regularly in the English Premier League...
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Owen-Hargreaves-c28918 had revealed that he thinks that he might never play for England again. The former Manchester United midfielder has had a torrid luck with injuries ever since his move to the Premier League from Bundesliga giants
Bayern Munich.
In his first stint in the Premier League, Hargreaves was bogged down with his knee problems but Manchester United gave him injections to keep him fit as they embarked on a historic European double by winning the UEFA Champions
League as well as the English Premier League. However the Englishman did not play regularly after his first season at United as his tendinitis deteriorated.
After two years of troubles in injury h**l for the former Bayern Munich man, Manchester City signed him as a free agent after he was released by Manchester United. Hargreaves didn’t do well for City as his injury problems kept
him off the field but he did play in the F.A Cup for the Citizens. After the Premier League season recently concluded, Manchester City released the Englishman and now he is looking for a new club.
Hargreaves recently said, "My situation has changed a little bit over the last four or five years, and it’s important in life to know we’re you’re at and be realistic. I've been privileged to have some wonderful moments with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749
and obviously everybody would love to keep playing for England but I think now is the opportunity for the younger generation.”
He added, "I'm happy to see a guy like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Oxlade-Chamberlain come into the equation, I think he's a very talented player, and I think the future is for the younger guys."
At just 31 years of age, it has been a tragic story for Hargreaves who was impressive for England in the 2006 FIFA World Cup but unfortunately his injuries have been his undoing and it still remains to be seen whether or not any
club will take the risk with offering him a contract.
