BedfordBlue Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 We are being linked with a January move for Heskey. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...tic/7759399.stm Never been a fan of his but I suppose he would be cheap.

StevO Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 if he could work with any of our strikers like he does with rooney for england i would be more than happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 I work with a Wigan season ticket holder that reckons Heskey has done nowt since he has been back in the England squad. Overated and doesnt score enough. He will be after a last big move and he will want 50 grand a week, Not happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 My mate is a Wigan Season Ticket holder and said that he's been one of thier best players since arriving a few years ago. He's over-rated in my opinion and I would not like to see him at Goodison, he does nothing for Latics so he can't do it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemaher85 Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 I think that he does a job for a england and wigan but i can't see him fitting in with any of our strikers, or the fact that he would probably be used in a 451 formation and that hardly fills me with much joy. To be honst I can't see any truth in this rumour at all, i don't think he light the world up if he came here but someone with that much expeirience for that price isn't too bad, but it does show how bad things are at the club. He isn't going to move the club forwards is he. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Can't see it happening myself - maybe villa to be reunited with o'neill - but there's not many who hold the ball up better than heskey - he'd complement the jags 'calculated hoof' out-ball! It's no conicidence that most strikers who play with him all say they like playing with him. I'd have him but don't think we'll get him.

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Dont like the idea of Heskey in an Everton jersey but compared to Larson and Nugent he might just be the lesser of three evils! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcopaulo Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 id like heskey to come as said other plays like playing with him and if you have a goalscorer up front they score when playing with him i mean england where doing nothing then heskey played 2 games we scored 6 with owen geting 3? i mean if we had saha or yakubu next to him they will score plus he'll be available for a couple million deffo worth a punt in my opinion and i think we would get him cos he wouldnt have any competition at first here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 This is taken from the official Everton site, so there must be some truth in it. I woulden't like it to happen. 15 in 81 ain't good. Emile Heskey appears poised to leave Wigan in January following the latest remarks from chairman Dave Whelan. The 30-year-old is out of contract next summer and has so far shown no sign of urgency to put pen to paper on a new deal and Whelan appears eager to cash in rather than lose him for nothing next summer. "Emile is out of contract in the summer, but he doesn't want to sign a new one at the moment," said Whelan. "It could cost us two, three or four million (pounds) if that goes on to next summer, so we'll have to see what January brings." Heskey cost Wigan a club record £5.5million when he joined from Birmingham in the summer of 2006, since when he has scored 15 goals in 81 league and cup appearances.

Blue 250 Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Can't see us getting Heskey, would be a lot of money anyway.Wouldn't mind him though, very underated and would link well with Cahill and Fellaini. Would work even better with a player like Vaughan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would work even better with a player like Vaughan. He wouldn't cost that much really, he's in well into the last year of his contract remember. That being said, Moyes pretty much said we'd have zero pennies for January so it's unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
