Heskey was the man when he played here.The thing is at the better clubs is the expectation increases loads,at Leicester we just wanted Heskey as a foil and creater who could maybe pitch in with nearly 10 goals a season.At Liverpool he's needed to get a minimum of 10 and i'm not blaming them for that,its just that if thats what was needed then you should have brought someone else.£11m was a bit generous but i'd say he was worth about 8 at least(could be biased) but at the end of the day the pressure will get to him,and i'm sad to say it but the same probably happened with Akinbiyi,although Heskey hasn't missed so many.
PR you can't really criticise the Liverpool fans though,it's not as if they were the ones to buy Heskey or said that £11m was good value.
