Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson implied that outcast striker Michael Owen will not be joining suitors Aston Villa. New Villa manager Gerard Houllier is fancying a re-alliance with his former Liverpool employee, but Ferguson told the Frenchman to forget about it. "I'm not aware of Gerard wanting him but, anyway, he's wasting his time there," Ferguson told The People. "I understand Michael's frustration, but Dimitar Berbatov has started the season so well. "He'll start against Scunthorpe in the Carling Cup and he'll get enough football this season."
