Emile Heskey has spoken about the reports earlier this week that suggested he may want to leave Aston Villa in January and has as good as said it's rubbish and that he isn't going to quit Villa.
Nice attitude and if it didn't come out from the club it was only going to develop and speculation was only going to increase.
We are also not stupid, we know things get taken out of context and we know that things are often printed or published that were never said in the first place so we will take what Emile has said, on the club site, as gospel. He is an Aston Villa player, who is going to fight for his place and isn't going to quit.
Emile Heskey
I didn't say I want to quit Villa or anything like that. The manager knows what I'm like. I have spoken to him and explained the quotes. I think the manager knew anyway that certain things weren't said.
I just wanted to clear everything up. The headline said more than the whole piece actually. Some people only see the headline. It's not nice to be painted as something I'm not but as I said, I've seen it happen to so many people before me. I've seen people get through it - and so can I. I am here, I am a Villa player and in spite of what the headlines say, I'm not going to quit.
So, there you have it. Emile Heskey didn't say he wanted to quit Aston Villa and he is going to fight for his place. Even if that place is centre back.

... I imagine when he said it's something he'll have to look at when he gets back that he meant his form and not his position at Villa. Hopefully we may see a harder working mor enthusiastic player after this, but I wouldn't bet on it... |

... Or we have someone coming in January who would actually benefit from the space Heskey can create, when he is in the mood. |

... I don't think its Heskey's work rate thats at question here (not when i've seen him play anyway, he runs around more than Carew does), its more the point as to whether or not he's actually that good a player and any better than Agbonlahor or Carew... Which he is neither on both counts. |

... I think the whole world can see what Emile is good at it's just that the way we play doesn't suit him. If we were to play a strict 451 with him up front, I could see him doing well, but we don't and even if we did, with Gabby playing that role so well, it would be difficult to drop Gabby .. I can also see how Emile would do well playing 442, but I really don't see us having the quality in the middle of the part to make that work for us ... |

... Van Dutch im with you. I don't think Heskey is lazy. He is just not that good and he really only operates well in certain systems. We don't really play that system or have the players to do it so the reality is Heskey will struggle at VP. |
keefvilla
said:
|
... Damian Yes we can all see what he is good at - NOT SCORING! He isn't good enough to displace either Gabby or Carew no matter what formation we play. |

... Oh cummon Let's not be so naive here shall we The guy blatantly wants out, and is saying stuff to get him a move but because things might not work out that way, he comes out with 'oh yeah I'm really commited to the Villa, honest' It's what players do all the time Just like Barry, Heskey is gone - Bye Bye |

... Well, Im just sayin it'll take a while for him to tell the Browns even if there was an ownership group readying a bid it would still take months and months, if not a year before we could get some certainty. Then, as you saw, the new owners have to be politically-acceptable to the current owners. Because the NFL is so political - as you saw with Limbaugh - they don't let you in if youre not on board with their poltiics. So lets say an ownership group surfaces tomorrow with a bid being prepared to move in on the Browns, you know that it wont impact the January Transfer Fund (Does anyone know how much Lerner has promised for htat by the way?). Then lets say in the new year a bid is offered and accepted in the first quarter. The NFL Owners will wait until the Owners meetings before the draft in March-April to vote on a proposal. It is likely that even if the bid is accepted and the sale is approved in April, that becuase of the paperwork involved and the banking fees that it wont be until the Summer Transfer window that we start to see SOME money trickle over... Thats presuming everything rushes through perfectly and smoothly with that. So at the very minimum youre looking at one maybe two tranfer windows, but probably more.... So weve gotta get by building the way they have been and hope he gives the manager good transfer budgets until either the stadium expansion is done or until he sells the Browns or attracts a new investor to Villa. |
Geoff
said:
|
... Also, if he sold the Browns hed have MAD money to use on Villa. He could afford to build a brand new stadium with that money. Though then youd broach the whole Highbury/Emirates situation. BTW, has anyone been to Emirates? It sure looks nice on an HDTV. |

... Who is the one midfield player that would be the "marquee player" that we keep hearing about? I mean, someone they could realistically afford, even if they had to sell Heskey or Reo-Coker? Probably a Central Midfielder with superb passing a bility or a Central Attacking Midfielder with good ball skills who can create...I was thinking someone along the lines of Wesley Sneijder (but not him specifically because hes happy at Inter)...anyone got some names they wanna throw out there? |
TaylorMade
said:
 |
... Its like playing with 10 men when Heskey plays, he contributes nothing to the team or players around him. I hope O'Neill see's what another gaff he's made in the transfer market and sells him. I'd be happy with 2-4 mill... |
Chiefy
said:

... NO NO NO NO NO Heskey dont do this now you big lump whats wrong with you man you cant even leave without not doing right !!!!!  God damn Heskey do you want us to spell it out for you !!! just get your coat and move on it hasnt worked wont work the time has come your not good enough to make it a VILLA !!!!! my day just keeps getting better |

said:

...He could afford to build a brand new stadium with that money. Argh! NO! I don't want a new ground, VP is one of the many reasons I'm proud of Villa. BTW, has anyone been to Emirates? It sure looks nice on an HDTV. I haven't actually been inside, but I worked on the roof of London Metropolitan university (17 storeys), one block away, which gave me a great view of it. Have to admit it's a nice looking ground, but it's a bit "samey", because the style is repeated all the way round. Another reason I like VP. |

... Keefvilla - NO i am not ok if this big lump thinks he is going to fight for his place and pull the wool over Oneils eyes with all this commitment talk the blokes having a laugh. Is it only Villa fans that can see Heskey is useless and others our team nothing, whats happened is he has realised Wigan want him ( he doesnt want to go there again ) Liverpool want ( its a wind up ) and Hull ( he knows he is finished if he goes there ) so he has decided to stay with Villa paying him a fat salary for the goals he could once upon a time score. EMULE YOUR A JOKE YOUR GAME IS A JOKE AND YOU DONT SCORE |

... Well I have never been to VP. I will try to go whenever I visit that side of my family. I like some new stadiums, but some of the ones they make just are waaaaaaaay to corporate and sterile looking. In Philadelphia, the football (NFL) stadium is a horrible looking eyesore. But the baseball stadium is the nicest looking, comfortable, hometown-ish cozy stadium in all of baseball. Then you go to NY and the stadiums are all cavernous and bland. The new Philadelphia MLS stadium does look nice though. Villa Park at least appears to be distinctly different-looking than the rest of the boxy-English style stadiums though. Like almost all of the notable professional stadiums in England are boxed-looking, presumably built around the original stands. Though most of the images I see are from aerial views or panoramic shots from inside. VP appears to have some distint features though. I will plan a day trip on matchday when I visit my relatives there. Which in my 26 years has only happened once, so itd be a good idea to do again in the next few years. |

... Now i have read the whole article and thats just great "despite what people say i am not going to quit" well thanks Heskey nice one, you wont be quitting we will sell you does that make it better for you ?? "i am not running away from things" is that because you cant ?? "these are the hurrdles you face" will you have S%"^ it you can hardley run never mind jump at the same time "i am here to fight for my place" you have been doing that for some time and have you won it back ??? NO are you going to ??? NO and i dont fancy your chances if you want to fight CAREW Petition time ?? protest at the game or something there must be something we can do to stop this from happening |

... "after the game you are faced with 10million questions, most of them i answered with one word" - thats sort of backs up what everyone is thinking "i am here to fight for my place most players are in the same ball park fighting for their place" -- 2 things Emule firstly your in the ball park because your crap secondly Carew isnt fighting, Gabby isnt fighting, Gerrard nope, Lampard nope do you know why becuase they do the job they are payed to do and do it well "you have to embrace the challenge" -- and just how long dows that take ?? dont you think you have been embracing for long enough and still not cut it "i think the manage said that knew that certain things werent said" -- probably he was probably hoping and preying like the rest of us that they where said "its not nice ot be painted something your not -- WHAT LIKE A PROLIFIC GOAL SCORER your whole career has been based on that you hypercrit "i am here, i am a villa player and despite all whats been said i aint going to quit" -- well EMULE MERRY XMAS TO YOU TO ! |

... Emile says he wants to stay, whether he means it or not is irrelevant at least publicly he is not causing a rumpus and that is good. He is here until January at least and we don't have a squad brimming with strikers so he is vital as a squad player. I hope this can be put to bed now because I don't like having players from other clubs telling the media who should be playing on the Villa first team. Players from Chelsea and Man City lecturing on Villa like a Super Power giving advice to a Banana Republic. It's time to stop slating Heskey, o.k. he is poor but he is a Villa player and will be needed between now and January whether trough injury or for League Cup so I think we should accept it and you never know he might come into a bit of form |

...I agree, I'd much rather see a few million pumped into our current ground, theres room for more seats (i believe we already have planning permission to make it 50,000) and it would be pretty easy to work some corners in and update the thing. Aren't we doing that anyway? I thought that was definite, it's jus not definitely going to be done in time for the Olympincs, so we couldn't commit so now apparently they're trying to find another midlands club to host it... |

...Oh cummon Good advice from Pancho. The original article was, I think, Monday; today is Thursday. If the original quotes attributed to Heskey were untrue then why wait three days? The reason it's taken three days is because it took that amount of time for the fans reaction to become clear to Heskey and to sink in. O'Neill was also reported as being furious. The lump is simply trying to get the toothpaste back in the tube. What lumpy said, essentially, was that he would need to leave Aston Villa if he was not in the starting line up. That's a difficult thing to misquote and easy to refute if it is a misquote. Why wait? It was also embedded in a much larger quote so it has the ring of authenticity. It wasn't taken out of context. |

... Naming rights to VP were mooted right at the beginning of Randy's tenure. I believe that they were then subsequently dismissed. So that may well not happen. Sponsorship (paid) coukd certainly be on the cards. |

... I can't type any more about Heskey, he may cause premature arthritis in my typing hand and I would never forgive him unless he moved to another club to say sorry. Far more gutted that the one guy I really wanted at Villa Park is making love to alex Ferguson in a hospital bed somewhere, this guy will be sh*t hot as he proved against Everton & Liverpool, I just hope Fergy is a bad lover. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/spo...l?ITO=1490>  |

... Who said Footballers are not thick? Lets hope that his public grovel is backed up with a stint in the reserves. What really does stick in the throat,is the fact that the only person that has kept faith in him,is the Gaffer, whom has taken some significant stick for it. And Heskey repays him with treachery. Hopefully, he never wears a Villa shirt again. Heskey = Cascarino |

... Unless anyone gets injured there is no room for Gabby, Carew and Heskey & The Fonz. We need a Eider Gudjohnnson type of player really, or someone like wee Shuan Maloney, still think we miss that type of player. Now we are not in Europe we dont need Beye or Shorey either. Surplus to requirements. |

... Right. So he got back and had a word with MON. MON said, 'Emile, you know I love you. You will be playing in every game. Stuff the titties on The Villa Blog. I call the shots round here. Now, Carlos, what are you like as a front man....?' And the blog cried. |

... Jus to throw in some thoughts, I'm not a fan of Heskey in the slightest, and he just isn't working for us. I am a fan of Oneal and trust his decision making, he's strong enough to make bad decisions, drop the player and keep going till he gets the right one. Villa have never had the luxury of paying 35million for the RIGHT player so yea we gotta trial and error and make some mistakes along the way, thats just the way it is. Oneal seems to take Heskey wherever he goes. My point I'm trying to get to, its been duly noted that Carew aint the nicest of people, but he's good at that with smiles and praise to the crowd (whilst whispering to himself "yea thats right, I'm the man"). Something that was noted sometime ago by Gabby was the amount he had learnt from Carew on the training ground, and what a player Gabby has become. So where does Heskey fit into this? Emile struggles on the pitch with confidence, he starts enthusiastic, but everytime he goes near the ball he seems to give away a free kick. Jumping too soon, jumping too late, tripping over the grass. Most of these as Villa fans we stand up, and shout at the ref. After the 5th decision we're shouting at Heskey and he must be wondering what he's doing there. Carew went through exactly the same spell before he got injured. Everytime he was near the ball he gave away a foul, mostly because of his size. This knocked his confidence. Gabby doesnt have that problem cos he's 5foot 1 and about 8stonne, so he can hide his pushes and shoves a lot better. Heskey has been on some ultra slimming diet over the summer (or the claret makes him look slimmer). With a few months of aerobic classes he may be nimble enough to not foul everytime he goes near a player (or be seen to foul), and if that happens he might get his confidence................... which will do the reserves team the world of good. |

... This is obviously all O'Neill's fault. He's the one who bought him. Either O'Neill was right to buy him (because Heskey is in fact a good player), but has completely failed to get anything like the best out of him. Or O'Neill was wrong to buy him because Heskey is simply a poor player. Either way, O'Neill is a numpty. Personally, I think that Heskey is not up to the standard we should have at Villa, AND that O'Neill is failing to get the best out of him. That's right folks, O'Neill doesn't know what he's doing, because he has the tactical awareness of a myopic maggot, who's sensory receptors have gone into overdrive as a result of a rather nasty hook being inserted up his behind. And he can't spot talent either - and to answer all of you who will point to the few good signings he has made, I will simply say that if O'Neill had managed to sign utter rubbish every time, that would suggest that he DID know what he was doing. No, the likes of Young and Carew were lucky signings. Toss a coin in the air over a sustained period of time and the immutable law of averages dictates that you will call right every so often. O'Neill out, for the good of Aston Villa FC. |

... Badge, thanks for the heads up with the Mirror. Backs up my earlier post exactly. That rebuttal by lumpy today - I knew that was bullsh*t, the timing was way off. Heskey's trying to unring the bell. The question is: 1) Will O'Neill let him get away with it? 2) Will the crowd let him get away with it? On the first I see in the press that O'Neill has already made some conciliatory gestures. Maybe this Mirror article will change his mind. On the second, I don't think the crowd will be so forgiving. In fact I think the situation on matchday will be untenable. O'Neill has got really big problems with this. I wonder if he realises it. |
Badger
said:
|
... It's a strange one for me. It's not like Barry who blatantly lied, imo. I personally think Heskey spoke before putting his brain into gear. I've said before, looking from his POV, it's totally understandable to me that he's concerned and I'm not so sure it was meant as a threat or indeed maliciously at all. Let's look at what was actually said; Why are you first choice for England and not for Villa? Perfectly fair comment, to my mind. Will you think about changing club in January? That to me could easily mean that he was thinking about knocking MON's door (indeed MON said he does do this), asking what his position is and would he/the club be better off moving on? As much as I think he's been useless for us, imo I don't think he's the sort of bloke who would work in a nasty, devious way. And I think this is why MON has been so keen to back him. I agree the crowd might not see him like that and fully expect him to be "rested" this weekend. |
Badger
said:
|
... I've just realised what I've written there so might as well get it in first; Heskey: What's my position gaffer? MON: Striker you knob, now try f**king shooting!!! |
tubbydunne
said:
|
... Heskey didn't say anything wrong in that interview. He was honestly answering questions directly after a game. A catchy headline was made from an answer to one of the questions that gives a misleading slant to the whole thing. Give the man a break. He is starting for his country who have qualified automatically for the world cup and can't get on his club team, this is naturally going to lead to awkward questions from the media and there was no disrespect to his club in the way he answered. This Heskey bashing is getting a bit tiresome. |
RiosJocktrap
said:
|
... Churchill, Martin made conciliatory remarks about Rio after his fallout with the gaffer, but actions speak louder than words. IMHO, Martin will be making the biggest mistake of his Villa carear if he has Heskey anywhere near the first team on saturday,both for squad harmony and on how we feel about him. Dont get me wrong,im fully behind Martin, but hes been making some weird decisions since January. |
Pancho Villan
said:
|
... Badger Said: "I personally think Heskey spoke before putting his brain into gear" So not only can't he play football, but after being capped 59 times is it for England, he's too thick witted to realise what saying 'if I'm not first choice, I'm off' means er.......... no Like many before him he wants it both ways. If MON stupidly noe makes the Mule first choice, then in my view MON will lose the dressing room. In fact the only consistent thing for MON to do now, is freeze him out then sell him. |
Nanwasafan
said:
|
... The key phrase is 'see what my next move is'. Now, like most, I want rid of Heskey, but like Badger I'm not so sure that he WAS being particularly disloyal. The word 'move', I would suggest refers means 'what I'm going to do about the situation'. It could mean he is going to train harder. It could mean that he accepts that he'll need to play out of position. It could mean that he accepts he needs to score serious goals in the reserves. It could mean he wants a loan deal. And yes, of course, it could mean he wants another club. Grey areas are my new thing. He's crap. But he plays for England. It is totally different to the Barry saga. It is VERY unlikely that a team outside the Top 4 could keep a proven England striker on the bench. So, I personally don't think there is an issue here. I think the OTT anger about his comments result from his footballing failures at our club. Give us a goal Emule. |
Villa_Chris
said:
 |
... Nicely put Nan. Personally I think we're giving him too much stick. I feel sorry for the bloke and hope the crowd don't jeer him etc. Words/phrases can always be interpreted differently. I hope he does score that overhead kick I mentioned yesterday. He would still get stick though. |
Villa_Chris

... Does anyone want 3 tickets for the open training session? I can't make it any longer due to work commitments. Let me know. FREE of charge. |
Pancho Villan
said:
|
... Nanwasafan & Villa_Chris Totally agree that Heskey deserves no stick. But loyalty doesn't come into it. This is Dog Day Afternoon. The man, despite being the crappest of the crap, by some strange quirk of celestial fate, has the chance of being imortalised as one of the 'golden generation' that won the world cup. But he needs to be playing as first choice, week in, week out. And if Villa can't give him that - and we can't, he simply has to leave. He has to. And with my blessing - |
Villa_Chris
said:
|
... Very true Pancho. I wouldn't mind one bit if he left but I just don't agree with the name calling and putting people down in such a way. Its not in my nature anyway....unless they truly deserve it (murderers,sex offenders and so on...), but not for someones inability to score goals. Can you imagine what its like walking out in front of 40000 odd fans that you know don't want you there or support you? It must be awful, no wonder he can't perform. Confidence effects all levels of footballers, whether its a kick about down the park with your mates, 7 -a-side or Sunday league....if someone knocks you its always in the back of your mind and you simply wont perform to your capabilities. He needs support, lets give it him while he wears our beloved Claret & Blue colours. |

... Villa Chris I agree that if you get on players backs then its harder for them to perform and it effects them worse but he just doesn't look bothered when he comes onto the pitch. Even at the city game, he came on with 20 mins left and didn't break sweat, he gives us nothing, no options what so ever when he comes on. I am not one for getting on players backs but if there not going to break their backs trying to win everything for us on the pitch what do you expect? I really hope MON tries the Fonz as the 3rd striker, he can score, will run all over, and give 110%. UTV |

... Deano i think Milner will be at the WC. His versitility alone will ensure a spot. I think Downing will also be very dissappointed as well if he doesn't get a place. But not too many(pundits) are now mentioning Ashley that much as a WC squad contender. He really needs to show what he is worth pretty soonas he really hasn't done anything much of merit in the lst 10months and he is well on track for the tag of over rated. It will be interesting to see what MON does when Downing does come back. It might just be the kick up Ashleys arse he needs. |
Deano-avfc
said:
|
... True, Ashleys does need to start producing again. So many crosses in the city game flew over everyones heads, I don't know if its a confidence thing but he really does need to realise that he's a lot better than he's been playing. When on form he's invincible, I hope he has a blinder tomorrow and that'll boost his confidence. 2-1 Home victory. UTV |
