Twitter really, really disapproves of Michael Owen’s commentary

Poor Michael Owen is getting hell of it from the Twitterati

BT Sport have wheeled out Michael Owen to commentate on Manchester United's Stephen's Day clash with Newcastle. The good people of Twitter have been mercilessly harsh on the former Ballon d'Or winner's abilities as a pundit. Here's just a small selection of the deluge of insanely cruel comments people have been making on social media. https://twitter.com/aledsavedlatin/status/548501469151129600 https://twitter.com/OffsideB/status/548502974730108928 https://twitter.com/OffsideLiam/status/548495542423408640 https://twitter.com/armjord/status/548502823751938049 https://twitter.com/Bettracks/status/548502125521948672 https://twitter.com/sweetirishf/status/548500938554875904 https://twitter.com/90thMin/status/548498558442549249 https://twitter.com/LieutenantSloth/status/548509158384099329 https://twitter.com/grahamruthven/status/548497995361443840 https://twitter.com/ItsHawkward/status/548503137775276032 In Owen's defence, he did explain yesterday why his commentary for today's game might not be up to scratch. https://twitter.com/themichaelowen/status/548220617594798081 Cue a barrage of "well, he must be getting smashed the night before every match he commentates on" jokes.
