Alan Shearer and Michael Owen in social media feud – former Liverpool man makes shock claim about Newcastle hero
The former Newcastle United striker has claimed he never wanted to sign for the Magpies and the club is not a big club, but for the stadium and the fans, who he describes as ‘deluded’.
Former Newcastle No.9 Alan Shearer took to Twitter to criticise his former St James’s Park and England strike partner for his “120k a week” wages. But, not to be downtrodden, Owen has hit back on social media, claiming United hero Shearer is not as loyal as he believes – claiming he once tried to manoeuvre a move to Liverpool when Sir Bobby Robson was manager of the Magpies.
It’s fair to say fans across the country have got the popcorn out as these two heavyweights of the English game, go head-to-head, creating some box office Twitter beef.
