According to reports Heskey is injured so Rooney will start the Turkey game.

Thank God! After Heskey's play against Leeds last Sunday, I was surprised to see him in Sven's squad.

What - the one effective game he has had for Liverpool in six weeks?

Pick your targets, eh?

Anyway, if ever you wanted evidence that Liverpool's fortunes are on the up, this is it - we expect to get at least one player back from every international squad with an injury, but usually it would be Owen or Gerrard or Murphy. The loss of Heskey is a definite plus. Baros and Owen against the Mancs next weekend, hopefully. And maybe a chance for the boy Mellor.

(although it's more likely the big lug will just recover in a couple of days ... )

You mean you're no longer a big fan of Heskey Matt? You're usually his biggest defender.

Owen/rooney partnership up front will be interesting...
I dont know if they'll suit svens long ball tactics..

Well, I wouldn't go that far. I am not as predisposed to blanket criticism of him as most others here, but you'd have to be deaf, blind and stupid not to see his limitations. And I am rarely more than two of those things.

Yep Sven's come out and said he wouldn't start even if Heskey couldn't play.

So I look forward to the Owen/Vassell partnership

I've been telling you guys Heskey just does not have it, for a while know. But heck, what do I know? I have no knowledge of the game? I will be very surprised to see Heskey play much more for the Nats. Mark this post.
