A Quote by Michael Owen

[Wayne Rooney] has to be viewed as a great England striker if he breaks Sir Bobby Charlton's record. Scoring goals at international level is much more difficult than it was a few years back because even the lesser teams are well organised and don't concede too many goals these days.
Of course a striker wants to score as much as possible. It's nice scoring goals. Goals are like an addiction: when you score, you want to keep doing more and more.
There have been more things wrong with England than just Wayne Rooney in the last few years.
Scoring goals is scoring goals. From a striker's point of view, the aim is the same.
Not many people know this but my team in England is Manchester United. Bobby Charlton, Denis Law, George Best, all great players. We created a bond when we played each other and I still speak to Bob from time to time, though I can't get used to calling him 'Sir Bobby.'
I think I want to become more rounded, I want to keep honing my skills and fine-tuning the qualities that I have. And scoring more goals - every striker wants to score more goals.
Look, the reality is that people will pay more for a match when Wayne Rooney is playing than when I am playing. I will never expect to be paid the same as Wayne Rooney, because I am not Wayne Rooney. And there's no getting around that.
When you're a kid you want to be a striker, you want to be scoring goals. I still want to be scoring goals! It's the easiest part of football, no it's not, it's the best part of football - the one you enjoy the most. But I always knew that my particular skill set was more suited to being a goalkeeper.
The teams that defend well are as important as those that attack well. If you don't concede goals it is much easier to win but it is all about having balance.
I know it could be a bit more difficult in England because you are not playing all the time and you play in different positions. But I do expect to score many goals for Chelsea and I hope to keep the average of between 10 to 20 goals a season, that would be good.
I miss scoring lots of goals, but I have always thought that a striker should not be judged just by the amount of goals he scores. The work he does for the team is also important.
Sometimes, if a striker is not scoring as many goals, they can still be in good form.
Messi not scoring? Great players aren't only great because of goals. If they don't score, they offer goals to teammates
I've always been known more for giving assists than scoring - but of course, I enjoy scoring goals, too.
Set too many goals and keep adding more goals. Goals have a tendency to be realized all at once.
As a striker, people look at the goals you score. But for me, my game is more than just about goals, it is how you link with other players.
Set goals that are well balanced-not too many nor too few, and not too high nor too low. Write down your attainable goals and work on them according to their importance. Pray for divine guidance in your goal setting.
