Delap backs Owen to take Stoke to the next level

Owen arrived at the Potters on a free transfer after being released by Manchester United, and Delap is adamant he can help the club prosper in the Premier League.

Delap told The Sentinel: "Michael has been at big clubs all his career and bringing that experience into the dressing room can only help.

"It's getting that winning mentality that all the big clubs have."

"Teams at the bottom of the table still want to win, of course they do. But it is a case sometimes of working out how to win."

Premier League is paradise, says Pogrebnyak

The 28-year-old made his debut in the English top-flight last season on loan with Fulham, racking up an impressive six goals in just 12 games for the Cottagers.

Pogrebnyak has already made an impression with the Royals, scoring against Chelsea in his second game for the club.

"My dream has always been to play in the Premier League," he told Sports.ru. "At the end of the 90s I liked watching English football very much so I wanted to sign [for a club] in England but I didn't think it would happen so late. But now I'm here and I'm happy about it.

"The first time I watched English football was in 2001 or 2002, I decided to go to a Premier League game. My favourite players - [Ryan] Giggs, [Paul] Scholes, [David] Beckham - were running around. That's why I always try to get the No. 7 shirt.

Premier Skills helping Botswana to get ahead

What has it been like as a Premier Skills champion passing on the knowledge to new coaches?

Aiming to stop them qualifying for the tournament in South Africa in January are a Mali side with a strong Premier League influence - Fulham's Mahamadou Diarra and West Ham United's Modibo Maiga are in the squad.
