Speech from a 10 millon pounds "striker"
!
Emile Heskey has spoken for the first time about his late miss in the 2-1 defeat by Manchester United, and blamed it on the size of the studs on his boots which forced him to slip at the vital moment.
Speaking to the official LFC magazine, the Reds striker says looking back he probably could have changed his boots before the game and then he might have scored, but insisted it was just one of those things that happens from time to time.
Heskey said: "About that miss, there was not much I could do when I slipped!
"To be honest, I had the longest studs I could ever have had! We'd played in Bucharest just a few days earlier and the pitch was such a disgrace that you had to wear long studs over there.
"I didn't change them for the United game and, believe me, they were really long
. There was just nothing I could do when I slipped. It's something which can happen to anyone at any time
.
"It was a very unfortunate time to slip, because I hadn't slipped all game until that last minute. Straight afterwards I just wondered what had happened
.
"I couldn't believe I had slipped over
, especially because usually I wear smaller studs. But there was nothing I could do.
