Carra confident without Owen

Jamie Carragher is happy with the strikers we have and believes they can make the impact required to help us forget about Michael Owen.
"You've got to have respect for the players we've still got around.
"I'm not sure if there will be a bit of criticism because we haven't signed him but we've spent a lot of money on strikers - £14million on Djibril Cisse, £7million on Peter Crouch and £6million on Fernando Morientes.
"We've got to have respect for the players at our club and hopefully they can do the damage for us. We've got a lot of good strikers."
"You don't want to criticise a club like Real Madrid, but it's unbelievable not to play him when you look at his goal ratio.
"I'm sure you won't see Robinho or Baptista doing more than he did in the time that he had. Maybe it's because he doesn't do backheels or flick the ball over people's heads.
"But the most important thing in the team is putting the ball in the back of the net and Newcastle have got one of the best around at doing that.
"Every season he seems to have people questioning him. Even at Liverpool, he'd maybe go six or seven games without scoring and it'd be all the talk.
"But then he'd score a hat-trick. He's very mentally strong. You can see that from the level he was playing at such a young age.
"He's a great fighter and I'm sure he'll show that at Newcastle. With him and Shearer together, it's going to be tough playing at St James' Park with the crowd behind them!"
I can't wait for the Newcastle game to see Carra have his best mate in his pocket.

I think Gerrard finally realised this summer that he is a true red.
