Former England striker Michael Owen reveals that he is disappointed with the number of injuries that he has sustained throughout his career.

Former England international Michael Owen has expressed his disappointment at the number of injuries that he has sustained during his career.

The 32-year-old is currently searching for a new club following his release from Manchester United.

While insisting that he still has at least two more years left in him, the striker has admitted that his time on the sidelines has left him with a feeling of "what if".

"I was only able to play without being compromised from 17 to 19," he wrote on Twitter. "Huge sense of 'what if' but unfortunately my mind could but my body couldn't cope with the demands of so much so young.

"Despite that, still think I've got enough in me to perform for another couple of years!"

Earlier today Queens Park Rangers midfielder Joey Barton also took to Twitter to state his belief that Owen is one of the best English footballers ever.
