And what better chance does he have that this season? No longer is he playing for a team of no-hopers who can only dream of getting anywhere near to winning the title, now he only has to help his current club claw back the five points they are behind current leaders Chelsea and the medal should be in the bag.
2002 was the closest Owen has come to winning the title with Liverpool when they came second to Arsenal.
Owen told the Press Association: "When I was first asked to sign for Manchester United I went to bed thinking about what it would feel like to join a new club and meet new staff and new players.
"Playing under Sir Alex Ferguson was also a big attraction and I thought about how good it would feel to run out every week at Old Trafford and play in front of so many people.
"But the big thing for me was the chance to win honours. Manchester United are such a great club and I would love to be part of a league-winning team."
