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.

Cue a barrage of "well, he must be getting smashed the night before every match he commentates on" jokes.
