lol take it by that you think same as me....but seriously wtf! I actually think he'd be a decent short term signing if we can't pull in the likes of Cole or Jones but the general concencus on here is that he's shit.

He has never been any good! never been anygood? he is an england international and has scored over 100 prem goals, he has been linked with clubs like man utd in the past yet people still dont see what he brings to the table, heskey is a good target man, ask any professional manager

In his day, he was getting the very best out of Owen, who hasn't been near the same level since he left for Real Madrid.

Heskey is an outstanding talent in the Mama position.
If we can't get Kevin Davies, I would be phoning his agent day and night if I was TP.

I bet this is the only corner of England where people rate Heskey. ;D

He did better that Rooney in the world cup.

An outstanding talent in the Mama position maybe but do we really want another Mama, or would we prefer someone that actually scores occassionally? Considering his size, Heskey spends more time flat on his ar** than he does actual playing. I certainly hope he's not coming here. Yes, he was better than Rooney in the world cup but so was every other player that pulled on a shirt and they were all garbage. Certainly not the same players who grace the Prem. I'm with the originator of this post, Heskey is a spent force.

ffs you could say that about rooney, gerrard and many more england players after south africa.
it speaks volumes to me that out of the four games heskey was the man of the match for 1.
if he gets motm in 25% of games for us i would be estatic

He would be an excellent signing with bags of Prem experience and fits our system perfectly, go get him Tone

Let's be honest here, Heskey has played for two 'Big' Clubs in Liverpool and Villa and fans at both clubs will tell you that he is useless. He has done well at smaller clubs and would be an improvement on Mama at Stoke. As he approaches his 33rd birthday and spends rather too much time in the treatment room, I doubt he'd be a massive improvement in terms of over-all impact. He has, at times, done well for England in an antiquated system that gives him rather too much prominence at the expense of more talented options, but that's not his fault.
He's a decent pro who gives it his best and he would fit in just fine at Stoke, as he did at Birmingham, Wigan and Leicester. It's totally unfair to call him shit (I'm as guilty as the rest) but he ultimately a limited player who has had a pretty good career in the circumstances. So I'm going to give the guy a break now and stop slagging him off and, if he's at Stoke next season, I'll support his efforts.

The reasons why we should not buy Heskey are as follows..:
1. We already have one carthorse...We don't need another Sidibe.
2. Too Old and injury prone.
3. He DOESN'T score goals.
4. He would be a short term fix to a long standing problem.
5. His wages.
6 His transfer fee would be too high for what your're getting.!
Heskey and Sidibe could do a double act as the 'double take' twins.

Personally I think he'd do a decent job in the short term and would be on a fraction of the wages CC and KJ are on!!

This is very simple for me and I don't think anyone has mentioned it... but could anyone actually see Heskey starting 25 games in a season? He has niggling injuries all the time and that will only get worse. No mileage in him whatsoever and for big wages.

This will be our 3rd season in the Prem. Is'nt it about time we went for BMWs instead of Skodas?

Ok some love mama others think he is wank it is all about opinions but consider.
We all agree that mama and heskey play the same role and given that mama would get nowhere near the england squad nor has has played for a top 6 prem club ergo Heskey is an improvement.

Or perhaps we could look for a goalscorer instead

Has been a very good player. Isn't now. Good post but I'd amend to: "Has been a very good player. Isn't currently". Got to give him another chance.
