Career

Leicester City

Heskey started his career at home-town club Leicester City, where he made his Premier league debut against Queens Park Rangers in 1995 at the age of 17.[10] He then became a first-team regular in the 1995–96 season, making 30 appearances for the club, helping them earn promotion to the Premier League. During this season, Heskey scored his first goal as a professional footballer, which came in a 1-0 victory of Norwich City, in a season he managed to score a total of seven goals.[11] Leicester City Football Club, (also known as The Foxes) is an English professional football club based in the city of Leicester. ...

During the 1996–97, his first in the Premier League, Heskey managed to score 10 goals in 35 appearances in this league, and also scored the equaliser in the 1997 League Cup final against Middlesbrough, which was won by Leicester in the replay.[11] The following season saw interest from Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur for Heskey, as he again managed to net 10 Premier League goals. However, the 1997–98 season saw Heskey score only six top-flight goals, and had been criticised for not scoring enough goals and going to ground too easily.[10] The 1996-1997 season was the 117th season of competitive football in England. ...

Liverpool

Heskey joined Liverpool in March 2000 in a long-anticipated £11m move, which, at the time, set the record transfer fee for the Merseyside club.[13] Heskey made his home debut in the Premier League clash with Sunderland and played well, but the season finished with continuing doubts about his goalscoring prowess.[12] During the 2000–01 season Heskey put an end to those scoring worries by scoring 23 goals for Liverpool and rocketing himself up the England pecking order.[12] Liverpool Football Club are an English professional football club based in Liverpool, Merseyside, who play in the Premier League; they are historically the most successful club in the history of English football, having won more trophies than any other English club. ...

"Some people like to criticise Emile, but I can produce plenty of facts and figures to back up how important he is to us, and how many goals we have scored that he has been involved in."
Gérard Houllier[14]

Heskey had been linked with a £12m move to Tottenham Hotspur in 2002, but Liverpool manager Gérard Houllier insisted Heskey was a part of his long-term plans.[14] Gérard Houllier, OBE, (IPA: , born 3 September 1947, in Thérouanne, Pas-de-Calais, France) is a football manager. ... -1...

In the 2003–04 season Heskey faced increasing competition from Milan Baroš for a place in the Liverpool starting line-up.[12] Despite this, he scored 12 goals and secured a place in the England squad for the Euro 2004 tournament in Portugal.[16][12] The 2003-2004 season was the 124th season of competitive football in England. ...

Birmingham City

At the end of the 2003–04 season, Heskey signed for Birmingham City for an initial fee of £3.5m, which could rise to £6.25m,[17] thus becoming Birmingham's most expensive player.

Despite Birmingham's mediocre 2004–05 season, Heskey won four club awards at the end of the season - Player's Player of the Season, Fan's Player of the Season, Top Goalscorer (11) and most Man of the Match Awards. Birmingham's poor 2005–06 season, during which Heskey scored only 4 goals in 34 league appearances, culminated in relegation to The Championship.

Throughout the 2006–07 season Heskey became a popular figure amongst the Wigan faithful. He showed great endeavour, although not always matched by goals. Nonetheless, his undoubted strength and presence proved vital and managed to score 8 goals, helping Wigan avoid relegation on goals difference from Sheffield United, against whom Heskey proved to be a handful for Wigan on 13 May 2007, where he nearly scored an overhead kick.[21] After this match, Heskey was described as "A man possessed", after playing at the heart of the Wigan defence, a position not suited to his play.[22] Heskey suffered a suspected broken metatarsal in September 2007.[23] Locations of the 20 Premiership clubs in the 2006–2007 season, as green dots. ...

Heskey was given his first call-up to the senior England team for a friendly against the Czech Republic in 1998, but did not play. Heskey made his debut for England in a friendly against Hungary in Budapest in a 1-1 draw in 1999 and made his first start against Argentina at Wembley Stadium in 2000.[7] That showing ensured he was in the England squad for the Euro 2000 tournament.[25] However, his two substitute performances in the tournament could not help England, as the team crashed out in the group stage.

Heskey was selected in the squad for the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan.[26] Heskey was used as a make-shift option to play in England's left-wing role in the game against Sweden, but this performance showed he is not natural in that position.[8] Heskey netted against Denmark in England's 3-0 victory, which saw England reach the quarter-finals of the tournament.[27] The 2002 FIFA World Cup (Official name: 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan) was held in South Korea and Japan from May 31 to June 30. ...

Heskey's place in the England squad had been placed under scrutiny in 2003 with the emergence of Wayne Rooney into the England squad.[28] Despite being criticised for his lack of goals for England,[29] Heskey continued to be an integral part of the international squad and took over the captaincy from Michael Owen when England beat Serbia and Montenegro 2-1 in his hometown of Leicester in June 2003. Heskey was named in the England squad for Euro 2004, but failed to shine and was the subject of much criticism.[12] He came on as a sub when England were leading 1-0 against France. Within minutes he had given away a free kick (from which France equalised) and England lost 2-1. Heskey was recalled into the England squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Northern Ireland and Azerbaijan in 2005, after having being dropped following the game against Ukraine in August 2004.[30] Since the emergence of Peter Crouch in the England squad, the possibility of a recall receded further, but Heskey was recalled to the England squad for the Euro 2008 qualifiers against Israel and Russia in September 2007.[31] Heskey started the game against Israel and became Wigan Athletic's first ever England player as a consequence.[32] Heskey also started the next match against Russia, and proved to be an effective strike partner for his former club mate Michael Owen, and assisted Michael Owen's second goal against Russia, and nearly scored himself with a clever shot under the keeper. After these two matches, former England international Alan Shearer said, "Never in a million years did I expect to be discussing whether Emile Heskey should keep his place ahead of Wayne Rooney but the Wigan striker was outstanding over both games."[33] he was called into new manager Fabio Capello's first squad against Switzerland, but had to withdraw due to an injury.

Style of play

Heskey is a pacy forward, and a powerful target man with strength for both club and country.[8][34] He impressed the England set-up with his versatility, as he can also play down the left wing.[35] Heskey has been criticised for his lack of goals,[9] although his main contributions to the team lie in the way that he holds the ball up and draws defenders out, leaving space behind him for another player to score.[8] First international Scotland 0 - 0 England (Partick, Scotland; 30 November 1872) Biggest win Ireland 0 - 13 England (Belfast, Ireland; 18 February 1882) Biggest defeat Hungary 7 - 1 England (Budapest, Hungary; 23 May 1954) World Cup Appearances 12 (First in 1950) Best result Winners, 1966 European Championship Appearances 7 (First in...

Liverpool FC Emile Heskey Caricature (209 words)
Emile Heskey may not yet be the nation's top striker but if he can maintain his form and progress of the last three seasons he will become a fantastic striker.
Emile Heskey helped The Foxes win promotion in his first full season and the following year, 1996/97, was even better as he rifled in a career-best 12 goals, including the last-ditch Wembley equalizer in the Coca-Cola Cup Final against Middlesbrough.
But on The Downside Emile by his standards had a poor World Cup in 2002 and was hot and cold for Liverpool and with the arrival of new players like Wayne Rooney for England Emile Heskey will have to work his socks off to keep his place.
Emile Heskey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1071 words)
Emile William Ivanhoe Heskey (born 11 January 1978 in Evington, Leicester, to an Antiguan father and Barbudan mother) is an English professional footballer currently playing for Wigan Athletic, he is a former England international.
Heskey joined Liverpool in April 2000 in an £11 million move that was one of the worst kept secrets in football.
However, despite his critics Heskey continued to be an integral part of the international squad and took over the captaincy from Michael Owen when England beat Serbia and Montenegro 2-1 in his hometown of Leicester in June 2003.
