Michael Owen: "But I have to have the right service. I am not the sort of striker like Thierry Henry who can go deep and provide a goal for himself.

"I don't think myself or anyone else for that matter will get anywhere near Alan Shearer's record of 260 goals. But when I was a kid I would have settled for my scoring record.

"But having said this I am only 28 and I feel I have plenty of years of football left in me. And I also hope I have plenty of goals still in me."

Talking of Thierry Henry ... today he has compared playing for Barcelona to being a member of The Beatles!

Henry: "When you play with Barca away from home, it is chaos.

"When you travel with Barca it's like the The Beatles are in town.

"I don't have any regrets. Not at all. I've only been on the bench three times and one of those was for a rest.

"I have seven goals in the league, three in the Champions League and three in the cup. And I have eight assists. For a winger, that is not bad!

"I love London, don't get me wrong. But I also love Barcelona. The weather here is amazing."
