Owen better than Ronaldo and Rivaldo - Sven

Last Updated : 17-Jun-2002 by Kop Talk News


England boss Sven Goran Eriksson says he wouldn't swap Michael Owen for any other striker in the world.

Owen will come face to face with Ronaldo and Rivaldo when England clash with Brazil in Friday's World Cup quarter-final but he's better than them says the Swede.

"Would I want to change Michael Owen for anyone? No. He is a killer in the box. He is very difficult to mark and he is quick. He is always there," said Sven.
