I'm not convinced that all of a sudden we need Heskey..hate to say it but Crouch can do the same job and score goals, Heskey 44 caps 5 goals, for a center forward that is shamefull!
To be fair though he gets goals out of Owen. On more than one occasion in the Russia game, Russia's centre halves were busy trying to deal with Heskey while leaving Owen completely unmarked, ready to receive a flick on from Heskey.
Crouch does get more goals than Heskey, it's clear to see, but Crouch to me isn't as good a partner for any of our strikers nor is he brilliant in the air.
