Is it just me who gets intensely irritated just by looking at big Em. He has a constantly apologetic on his face, he has no strength, despite having an arse the size of mexcio, he has to go off the pitch for some non-existant injury every fuckin game, whats up with that???? He`a big lad, but he`s as soft as i dont know what, im sure ya could scare him off scoring just by saying boo in his ear , not even sayin it loudly!!!. When Heskey is on the pitch its like a backward step before we start, any opponent must get confidence from seein the striker on the halfway line lookin like he is terrified. Even when he puts his hands up for a pass, its like hes half hoping it dont come to him. Ahhhh, by contrast Pongolle always looks sharpe, and exciting, and fights like a motherfucker, case in point, the chance he set Diouf up for - he`d been knocked down, but was up in a second, poised and alert to create a great chance. Heskey who is about 6 times as big as Pongy would of been roling around in mock agony, how on earth can that be acceptable.
Its like an invading Army having a giant inflatable rubber duck at the front of its attack, yeah we all know he needs confidence but Jesus, he`s been playin for one of the biggest clubs in the world for 3 years, and starting for England, despite being shit for both. He must think hes in a Kafka story or something, everyone tellin him he`s great, n he just knows hes useless.
Did i miss it when he was on Jim`ll fix it, did they give some fat kid from leicester a football career just to boost his fragile confidence?
Im sure he`s a nice lad, but even Emile looks like he wishes he was somewhere else most of the time, give him what he wants please.
