Stoke City striker Michael Owen has admitted that he would be "disappointed" if England failed to score more than five goals against San Marino in their World Cup qualifier on Friday.
The 32-year-old, who has scored 40 goals in 89 caps for his country, has not represented England since 2008.
"I'm going for an 8-0 hammering tonight. Will be disappointed with anything less than five!" he tweeted.
