Heskey, like Crouch, has never professed to be great with a first touch but he needs two players marking him, and in footballing terms thats worth so much. When did Rooney last score, but everyone bangs on about him likes he is the messiah.
Heskey is also the consumate professional. Never courts the press, never gets into trouble, despite coming from a rough area and having relatives that are into allsorts
I guess its just become fashionable to slate players like Heskey. You should maybe actually try watching him properly though. Because personally I think you have no idea what you are talking about |
The problem is we are so dependant on players like heskey and beckham that when they become to old or get injured and can no longer play we have no one to take there Places.. We did the same with Seaman, we dont give others a chance before their careers end then we come unstuck...We are meant to buliding a team for the next world cup etc we need younger players Surely!
