Michael Owen rubbishes suggestions that he is at Manchester United because he is greedy.

Manchester United striker Michael Owen has hit back at suggestions that he is greedy.

Owen has made just 30 league appearances for United since joining the club in 2009, leading many to hint that he is only at Old Trafford for the money.

"How can greed ever be labelled at me? Greed for success maybe but if I wanted money the last place I would of signed for is United," Owen said on Twitter.

"I get a fair deal where I am but that is the last thing that entered my head when United came in for me. Strange accusation."

The 31-year-old scored twice on his first appearance of the season against Leeds United last night.
