Quite a bit less if you ask me.
Rooney had played 20 odd games for Everton before he made his England debut, what made him most people aware of him - his goal against Arsenal - was 5 months before his debut. Owen had a full season at Liverpool before he made his.
But I agree, it is exciting I look forward to seeing him play. Especially after stealing him from Arsenal for my Newcastle team in Football Manager.
