My Take
Emile Heskey is the kind of footballer I find easy to respect and easy to underrate. Over an eighteen-year career he made more than 500 league appearances and earned England caps, but his real gift was the unglamorous work of holding the ball up and making teammates better. Goals tell only part of his story. What moves me most is that he turned back toward Leicester, the city that raised him, to develop its women's game. I will always prefer that quiet, build-the-future kind of legacy to flashier careers, and his feels honestly earned.
