Michael Owen is expect to returning to trainning in a few weeks

Michael Owen remains on course to return from a serious knee injury before the end of the season.

The Newcastle striker is recovering from surgery after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament at the World Cup in June last year.

Owen recovered from a broken metatarsal bone in time to travel to the World Cup with England only to suffer his knee injury in the third group game against Sweden.

England have struggled in his absence and have scored only twice in their last five games.

Playing with someone like Andy Johnson could suit Wayne Rooney

Andrew Johnson is expected to partner Wayne Rooney in the crucial Euro 2008 qualifier in Israel on Saturday and Owen is backing the Everton striker to shine.
