Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on January 20, 1981)

Happy Birthday, Owen Hargreaves! From Canada to England, from United red to City blue—your midfield magic has always been a delightful plot twist. Who else could switch Manchester allegiances and still charm both sides of the city? Your tenacity on the pitch is legendary; your knees might have protested occasionally, but your spirit never did.

Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as that unforgettable free-kick debut goal for Man City in 2011. May your celebrations be injury-free and filled with laughter—after all those tackles you've endured, you've earned it! Cheers to another year of brilliance!
