Emile Heskey on the manager who made him - Martin O'Neill - plus Neil Lennon, Gary McAllister, the Liverpool treble and the famous 5-1 against Germany.

Heskey tells Peter Martin why Martin O'Neill is one of the best managers he ever had and how he made him feel like the best player on the pitch, playing alongside Neil Lennon at Leicester, Gary McAllister and Gerard Houllier's Liverpool, the 2001 treble, whether England will win a major tournament again, and the five-a-side team he would pick.
