Man Utd striker Owen tells Fergie: I am ready to roll

Manchester United striker Michael Owen says he's fit and available.

Since the turn of the year, Owen's featured in just four of United's 15 matches. But with so many games on the horizon, the 31-year-old is eyeing opportunities at the business end of the season.

"I spent a lot of time training and keeping up my fitness [during the international break]," Owen told manutd.com.

"I did quite a few sessions here at Carrington and then the manager gave us a couple of days off. Even on those days off, though, I kept my fitness ticking over. I'd missed the last few weeks so it was important to do that."
