Looking at the stats it might look at bit weak, but knowing the full story (watching the games) you should know it's been a bit more than just 2 goals. He is that kind of player who gets you the big chances in the games because of his brain. How often do you see Berbatov end up one on one 10 minutes before the ball is being passed on? You can just smell there is something coming when Owen is sneaking around the defenders. This is his trademark and you don't even see players like Walcott or Lennon end up 10 meters ahead of the defenders out of nothing. Once he get his confidence up 100% he will score A LOT MORE. There has been about 4-5 goals that he normally nail, or at least what you expect of a premier league player of his status to do, and we all know that this potential is in him.
