And I don't think Sven really thinks Crouch is a starter

regards him a as a good impact sub to change things and bring on something different.

Rooney is a midfielder cum striker anyway so far better to let Gerrard, Lampard and Cole push on than to play another out and out striker.

The one who would probably be best suited to the Rooney role on a like for like basis is Cole.
