Well if you were looking for a big man to play up there with Owen, id probably pick Johnson. If thats not what McClaren wants, then Defoe. Both are proven premiership goalscorers, and Defoe has a much better game to goal ratio than Heskey.
Yes I know Heskey sets up more goals than he scores, but if we're looking for someone like that ratherthan a striker then that opens even more options!

And in Heskey's place I would take one of the young lads who have been playing with the U21's.
Agbonlahore, Derbyshire, Lita, etc..... Surely if experience is so vital, lets get one of them in the squad so they can gain a little bit (even if they dont play)



With Lampard and Gerrard injured, why dont we bring back Yorke who plays holding midfeilder now!
