He has not had that many chances to come on and play but, when he has, he has shown what he is capable of.[LNB]"He is a good player for the future. He got himself involved in the England set-up from an early age.[LNB]"He is a great prospect for the future and he has got a great career ahead of him."[LNB]Heskey added: "You've got to bide your time but when you get an opportunity, take it, and Nathan knows that himself. He knows what he is capable of doing."
