About this listen

Emile Heskey - on life after football, self-refection, media pressure, and racial prejudice.

In 2000 22-year old Emile signed for Liverpool for a record transfer fee. The following year he scored to "make it five" in England's most epic game to date, the 5-1 win against arch-rivals Germany in the 2002 World Cup qualifiers.

Often criticized, always questioned, yet picked by six different England managers. How does football's misunderstood man reflect over his life and career journey?
