Yep, Liverpool got the best of Heskey and they did alright with him. One season he got 20+ goals. They also won plenty of cups, including the season they won the FA, League and UEFA Cups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right..I am honestly concerned for this season and we could very easily be relegated.. This and the no mahrez replacement so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the same West Bromwich defense that had a better goals-against ratio than 50% of the bottom ten teams last season, better even than ours or Everton's? The reason the Baggies went down was their impotent attack, not the back four. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddison looks brilliant but even with mahrez he sometimes struggled to do it on his own and Maddison is no where near that level yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you'll find that Heskey was the perfect foil for a striker like Owen who, along with other Liverpool teammates at the time, have since given testament to his importance to the team and their appreciation of him. Never a prolific goalscorer, he was what he was and very good at it as he was for England also. Liverpool had their money's worth out of an honest very likeable pro (who also helped us as a club out financially when we needed most it lest we forget).

I always thought that Liverpool ruined Heskey by turning him into a battering ram/foil for Owen. When he was with us he seemed more dynamic. He would scare defences and knock the ball past defenders and run the long way around to retrieve it and beat them for pace. One player that could get you on your feet. Definitely a legend. That equaliser in the cup final was priceless. Great player, humble and one of our own as they say. On top of that, he put his hand in his own pocket when we were in trouble. Double legend! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with that! When he was with us he used to frighten the he'll out of defences, they had to double up on him and he made Sol Cambell and Gareth Southgate, two of our better defenders look like complete chumps! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Nacho Posted 1 August 2018 Share Posted 1 August 2018 Just bid £50m because I cannot watch Morgan and Benalouane at the back first game of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfan123 Posted 1 August 2018 Share Posted 1 August 2018 We will get detroyed by United with Morgan and Benny at the back. If we don’t have Evans and/or Maguire out of the players we do have Johnson needs to start the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
