“The difficulty of kicking a ball long and straight isn’t high.”
While the likes of Joey Barton and Gary Neville were salivating over Charlie Adam’s 59-metre strike for Stoke against Chelsea, Michael Owen is doing a Simon Cowell and refusing to be impressed.
Great as it was and taking nothing away from my mate Charlie but no way am I having that one long strike is a goal of the season candidate.

And to the few that disagree, the difficulty level of kicking a ball long and straight isn't high. Not that I could kick it that far!

Gary Neville summed what the rest of us thought up in one word…
Incredible

…while Barton also took his hat off to the former Liverpool midfielder, presumably before texting Owen to call him a nugget.
What a goal from Charlie Adam! Struggle to see a better struck ball all season.
