Heskey off to a Flier

Emile Heskey to Wigan was one transfer that split the Wigan fans, some believed all they heard about him constantly beign on the floor and who couldn't score if his life depended upon it, others believed he was a brilliant signing, looking at his link up play rather than his one in three goal ratio.

And up to now, two games in, I have to say that Heskey has been possibly one of our best players. We have scored two goals up to now this season and both involved Lee McCulloch and Emile Heskey. The first at Newcastle was set up by Heskey, and this weekend Heskey scored himself.

If he continues to do this each game, set up or score a goal, then the £5.5million we spent on him will look like a schrewd move by Pj.
