Awfully reluctant to disagree with you, Rich, but Heskey was vital in that 2000-01 season and, in it, our reascension to elite status.

 

He was Drogba lite for 2-3 years.

He was dynamite in 00-01, I had, probably still have the VHS of that treble winning season where I think he scored 21 goals.

 

For some bizarre reason the rest of his time here I remember him spending most of the time being bullied to the floor. I don't know what happened there.

 

Maybe my love for Litmanen is clouding my judgement but I really thought Litmanen could have been the key to unlocking those defences that came and played for the draw and we just couldn't break down.

Instead we had Emile get pushed around and like the nerdy kid in the playground.

I certainly agree with you that Heskey's demeanor was odd.

 

6ft, explosive, beast, and he walked around as if there was a piano hanging over him.

 

Was at a Sami Hyypia night, at Anfield, just in December and your man Jari popped in to say hello. The place went wild, I'll try to dig up the photos, but his hair was still as absolutely beautiful as it was, at Ajax.
