I have knee tendinitis issue and I had to deal with them during College when I played. Once I got back in shape its fine, but when your coming of a lengthy break, like he is, it can be difficult to regain your fitness and get limber enough to get the stress of your knee. Knee tendinitis is caused by over compensating in most cases, if you hurt your ankle, you run differently to protect it, this can cause the tendinitis. It also is worsened by tight hamstrings, and not being limber enough. My tendinitis was on my patellar tendon, this connects the shin bone with the knee bone, right below your knee cap. I didn't have the nice treatment and shots he will receive and I was able to cope with the injury and two weeks in it stopped bothering me completely. The shots he will receive will loosen the tendon, give it more flexibility, and help him with the pain. He will be fine, the injury isn't as severe as one might think, and it won't bother him once he gets back in to shape. The issue will only be if he can't get past the pain to get there, knowing Owen's strong character, I don't see it being an issue. I am sure pushing through pain is not a problem with a man as strongly committed as he appears to be. We should not be concerend at all.

Even if he play halfteh games that shouls be good enough for United... He is a big game player and if he is fit in CL games then that is enough...

And, as Red77 said, he's part of a rotation with Fletcher, O'Shea, Park, Anderson, Scholes and Carrick so he's not expected to be playing each and every game. It looks like his fitness will have to be "managed" and his playing time rationed. And, who better than SAF to do that ?

He seems to have a dodgy knee and given his position in the center of defence and the fact he is a combative player who looks for the tackle -- well, lets just hope he can keep himself fit. Another Mr. Glass we can do without. A top player when's he's fit though...then again, we all said that [and some continue to say] about Saha as well. More reason why United should thank their stars to have squad players like Fletcher, O'Shea, and Park who continue to function as support in case one of the more established stars is injured.
