Personally, I'd say NO.
We don't need one dimensional footballers of no skill or finishing playing for United.

Will you swap Forlan for Heskey?
- Thread starter Cal?
- Start date
No.
The OT pitch is already crap enough as it is without some over-sized Donkey trampling all over it. 
No way. <img src="graemlins/nono.gif" border="0" alt="[No No]" />
Yes

And how much Heskey worth now?
Noooooooooo
No.
let me think about it!
ummmmmmmm NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
ummmmmmmm NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Not today, not tomorrow, not in a million years.
YES!
The same day I'd swap Keane for Murphy
Just in case that's not clear (cold sweat here) that's really a NO NO NO NO NO NO WAY NEVER
Jesus H, what a scary thought
And just for the record that's also a NO to ANY Man United player for ANY Liverpoo player - ANY!
I swear, hand on heart, that I wouldnt want Man United to swap Owen and Gerard for Phil Neville (sorry to pick on Phil). And I mean that. It's not right! <img src="graemlins/keano.gif" border="0" alt="[Keano]" />

Sorry, can't agree with that, I'd give them Phil AND Gary for Owen and Gerrard.

I dont think so pal. I'm living in the real world here.
1. You have to drag any Liverpoo player kicking and screaming to our club - what's the point in buying players who dont want to play for the club
2. They'd have to put in some pretty special performances to convince the fans they were giving their all
3. Any time they were injured (and with Owen and Gerard that's nearly always) they'd be accussed of not 'wanting' to play
It just wouldnt work. I'm not saying they're not good players, but I AM SAYING that they wouldnt want to play for us.
My heads fine thanx

I promise you that if that happened you'd end with 4 very unhappy players who just wouldnt cut it. This the real world not freakin Championship Manager!
No way, silly question
yes

NOOO, To replacing a small problem with a Huge(as big as a donkey)one. The only players I would be intrested in from Liverpool are Owen(3rd striker) and Hyppia(to fight it out with Brown and O'shea) as for Gerard, he is way over-rated.

Whats he gonna do?
Score..
<img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" /> Obvious answer.
To be fair to Heskey he did score quite a few goals a couple of seasons back, something like 18 goals which ain't bad for a player with little skill and just brute strentgh. There are advanatages of having a powerful attacker with pace, and Heskey has shown in glimpses that he can put these attributes to good use, but doesn't do often enough.
Personally I prefer players with a little finesse and trickery, Forlan has that and I'm sure given time, he'll show us what a good player he is.
Could Heskey have scored a goal like the spectacular one Forlan scored during the World cup? Never in a million years.

Just a random take from lfc.tv messageboard - what the scousers say about Heskey:
"Someone posted the other day that he has the first touch of a drunken elephant"
I don't like criticising him and have backed him in the past. But the number of times his attempts to control a ball have resulted in the ball flying 20 yards from himhave worn me down.
I don't think I'd sell him though. He has played a lot of good games. A rest on the bench and a few reserve games might do him good.
If that does not work then get rid of him."
"after a season supporting him last year i now no my biggest mistake was supporting him as he is rubbish.
he is lazy crap useless dosent do anything and i do not know what gh sees in him
we must sell him now and have diouf and owen with baros as back up"
"GOAT!! That's very very harsh,
on goats that is.I prefer complete and utter donkey myself, although donkeys do run with a bit of purpose.I really would like to know what hold he has over GH and Sven to make them keep picking him. He must have some wicked dirt on the pair of them. "
"Drunken elephant? I like that one. I think I'll use that above complete and utter donkey now. If we can get decent money for him then sell, but I don't think we will. It's something that I have said in the past. The only players that we will get good money for are Owen, Gerrard and Hyypia (possibly Riise) and we don't want to sell them. The rest of the squad (apart from the new boys as I haven't seen them play enough) are distinctly average. "
There are insults on Heskey/Smicer and co LITERALLY flying all over the place among the scousers (even in topics that aren't particularly aimed at these players, they will usually throw in a sarcastic comment or two about, especially, RedCafe's Scousers' favorites: Heskey.
Edit: it's interesting to see how the scousers seem more cruel and more imaginative than fans of other clubs when describing Heskey.
