Well, that doesn't surprise me, he hardly had the most impressive of world cups.

 

IMO in the past he has been a good partner to the England strike force, however right now he is just not the man we needed upfront.

 

I would imagine he wouldn't be the first to retire in the near future.

Now we just need Green, James, Terry, Rio, Cole x2, Lampard and Gerrard to retire. They've had there chance.

 

If England fans could read some of the stuff posted on here now when they'd just qualified from their group, they'd all be scratching their heads. I can see that people think that the blame lies with the players, and it does, but taking the underperforming players out of the picture completely is the wrong thing to do, especially when there's nobody else in the frame to replace them. There's a reason why Gerrard and Cole are being hunted by Real Madrid, they're world class players that just don't have the motivation to perform at International level.

Emile Heskey, 62 caps, 7 goals.

Columbian goalkeeper Rene Higuita, 68 caps, 8 goals....

 

Boo, if Heskey had played 6 more games, he might've got that eighth goal!

 

The only England game I remember him being good in was the Germany 5-1, and that was probably because I was on such a cloud 9, I didn't even notice his crapness.

 

CM96 got it right - he was always shyte for Leicester.
