Emile heskey

[The Good Sir]

Wouldn't take him if he offered to play for free.

Stifle their progress? the only players doing that is those two, hence the need for a good striker, then some experienced back up too.

Besides neither ji nor wickham are capable of holding the ball up and would benefit from playing alongside someone like heskey.

I'd take heskey on two counts. One: if he's brought in with a quality strong forward and two: as long as he's signed after him, as signing heskey first would be the biggest PR mistake this club has done since appointing wilko and the lead up to the babb signing and would put a downer on our support from the off.

If we were signing him as our lone forward signing of the summer he could fuck off.

he could come here and be by and large unwanted featuring as a sub or go to leicester like some sort of SKP hero returning where he will be more effective and probably wont have to move house.

Would rather actually have SKP here obviously.

There is no chance of us bringing in 2 strikers plus heskey IMO. He would. Ring absolutely nothing, just look at the last 2 years at villa.

It would be on a par with the Mags signing Sol Campbell.
