Vedgy

The other day i watchin the Germans and during my usual lahm drooling (sounds really gay) i got to thinking. Weve been on the look out for a right back and will have to see if Deggen makes the grade but id just like peoples view on just how good they think Vegard Heggem could have been?

 

Was watchin LFCTV the other day and remembered just how much i liked him at the time, was nimble and quick and very much in the Lahm mode. Suspect defensively but was quite young when injury took him down.

 

Apologies if this has been asked before!

Veggard Heggem was excellent going forward, but not the best defensively. Also very injury prone.

He had more hamstring injuries than Owen. Never rated him tbh.

Great goal against Boro if I remember correctly. Always had a lot of time for Heggem, but he suffered from the curse of the right-back - Jones,Heggem,Babbel etc...

Those three you mention just shows the tragedy of it. Particularly Jones and Babbel. Fuckin loved Rob Jones!

 

And that goal against Boro was class!

Btw his new career includes sheepfarmer and salmon fishing

Vegard Heggem and Aunan AS offer exclusive salmon fishing in the Orkla and Gaula rivers

Heggam was good. That goal at the Riverside was quality.

 

However, as mentioned, Rob Jones was the best right back in the history of football. Cafu & Carlos Alberto had shit on Jones
