    Liverpool go into tonights game knowing their through, they've done the job and their not going to embarrass themselves or the country lets be honest. I can't help but notice the over pall of their lanky forward, master of the robot, Peter Crouch. Watching him on the ball is like watching a youn Mark Van Basten, unbelievably agile and capable of anything.

    What are your thoughts on Peter? [​IMG]

    As a man who's been banging on about Crouchy lately its good to see that he's finally getting credit for his performances but he's no van basten. But like i say all the doubters have now got loads and loads of egg on their faces.

    Crouch's performances have been good lately, but I would never compare him to Van Basten.

    I've always thought of Crouch as a lanky bastard. I won't change my mind.

    So he's tall therefore he can't be any good at football????????????
    Ok if thats the case Lampards absolutely shite because he's a fat bastard ,hows that?
    If Crouch is so bad then why is one of his biggest fans ex Chelsea player and manager Ruud Gullitt?

    Ruud was bribed. Plus, I think Crouch is a lanky bastard because he's clumsy when hes tall. When kicks that people normally head, he tries to scissor.

    Plus, he's a goal mouth cherry-picker.

    He looked very clumsy scoring the 2 overheads this season and his 3rd against Arsenal didn't he?
    I really can't believe that you rate someones footballing ability on how they look. Whats Joe Coles excuse for having a massive head then?
