Apparently he thinks he is better than the "three out of ten" some reporters have given him in recent games.

You would have thought it would have been a step up from the "one out of ten" we often gave the little parasite when he played for Newcastle.

Michael Owen: "A start and a goal, you can't ask for more than that. It is how people judge me unfortunately.

"I started a game against Bolton and was pretty pleased and thought I played pretty well. Then I looked at the papers and was given a three or four.

"But in this game I played pretty average and scored a goal and I'll probably get seven out of 10.

"I think I deserved a five in this game and seven or eight from the Bolton game."
