Owen Hargreaves could still be a star in Europe and come back home to do his duty every once in a while. With a few players of international quality leading the team, Canada could claw its way back into the World Cup (as well as help to inspire the next generation of kids). He'd have cash, fame...and that little thing called honor.

Team Canada turned him down on no less than three seperate occasions. I'd go and play elsewhere too. Especially if it was a better team and they asked me to come play, as opposed to being turned down by worse team that I took the time to try out for several times. Soccer Canada is a joke, if you didnt play for the right team, under the right coach and go to the right camps then they want nothing to do with you.

Agreed. I'm not a Hargreaves fan, nor am I a Man U. fan (Liverpool all the way!
). Bayern knew which team would be signing the cheque. When was the last time Man U. bought a 'cheap' player? They dont have to anymore, they have the cash. He's also not exactly the greatest either, look for him to be dropped from the starting line midway thorugh next season.
