Peter Crouch is a true footballer. Never got into trouble off the pitch. Scored some amazing goals. For his hight he could dribble a good first touch. As a Spurs fan he will always be remembered for scoring the last min goal to put Spurs fourth and get there first CL place. His mind set was really strong too. Always proved people wrong by playing football. Never pulled the poor me card.

They couldn't see past the height and an extremely tall player (for football) is being considered a liability. Two meters tall = no technique in their minds because, well, if your legs are longer than 2/3 of your coaches whole body even a good move looks kinda funky. It's a miracle in itself that they didn't tell him to switch to goalkeeper or gtfo by the age of 12, though I suspect his father "strongly discouraged" this ideas while discussing his son's progress.

Crouch had two valuable and under-appreciated skills.1) He made other people play. Any of his teams would improve their football in the final third of the pitch. He would do the hard work as well as making the reliable decision. 2) Defenders around the world would see him for the first time and panic because they had zero training about how to defend against a giraffe. Especially a giraffe with a great first touch.

Something a lot of people forget about Crouch is that because of his stature and the way he played he would consistently get penalized by referees and often defenders would take to just diving and fouling him in duels and he'd always get the calls given against him. Most famous example of this is probably the CL match between Spurs & Milan where he went up against 2 world class CBs at the time and absolutely dominated them but every single time the referee would call him for fouls. Oh and the red card against Madrid which wasn't a red

It's sad that when you're young, people just look at you and go "Oh, well, according to the way your body looks, you should play this position, so you're going to play that." It often doesn't matter what you're naturally talented at, you don't get the chance because of your body. I used to play a lot of American football when I was young. I was relatively tall for my age and a bit heavier than others, so people saw me and went "Oh, you have to play lineman." It didn't matter that I didn't have the physical strength for that kind of position, I was just the tall heavier kid. But when I got a chance to play away from the line, I kept showing people that I naturally played wide receiver and could keep up with almost anyone we played, or I could play linebacker or even defensive back and cover and tackle anywhere and still defend/intercept passes. But then it'd be a week or two later and a different group of people and it was back to having to play line against guys who were like 30kg heavier than me and significantly stronger.

@@JimTheFly Yep, height isn't necessary to dictate the way you play. I used to play as a defender or even defensive midfielder but I was pretty much the shortest and should be played as a striker instead. However, the thing is, I have no agility as one, let alone finishing touch or composure against the others. And instead, I can deal with players that are bigger by a sliding tackle, sometimes intercept the ball to then start the build-up from behind with a simple pass.

I've always thought that Liverpool selling Peter Crouch was the difference between Benitez winning the PL in 2008/2009 and finishing 2nd. Such a shame what might have been. That team was great with Torres, Gerrard, Alonso, Mascherano. It just needed a little extra to get over the finish line - someone who could play a few games when Torres was injured, come off the bench to make an impact or just give the team an alternate strategy against teams who parked the bus.

Liverpool fans loved him. He had a really bad start there and didn’t get his first goal for fifteen games. They never got on his back and always supported him and had his back (Crouch said this himself).

Luved it when he played for QPR but we had to sell when we went down to the lower depths . But Peter gave back part of his transfer fee to the club , now thats the type of player you need and we respect!

i love crouchy, great bloke. just to make some minor critisisms though, he considers his dad to be the biggest influence on his career. his dad never stopped him from doing what he wanted to do but would remind him of his commitment to football. for example, crouch wanted to go to a house party and was all set to go despite having a youth match the next day. his dad said "of course you can go. but are you sure you should? you have a game tomorrow." and other stuff like that. sr and jr are both incredibly close, crouch jr said that his dad attended every one of his games and one of his pre match rituals was to look for his dad in the crowd. another thing about his wife meeting him. apparently she ALWAYS had a crush on him. she was working at the club crouch went too and when she saw him she had to get his number. crouch was obviously more than happy to give it to her lol. their first date was at crouch's local pub, crouch bought the first round, abby went to get the second only to realise she had no money so she got tap water instead lol. the rest is history. fun side note, crouch refers to abby as "san marino" because she kicks off every ten minutes.

Grew up just down the road from me (his parents still live there). Went to the same school as my kids. Lovely fella, great sense of humour and vastly underrated as a footballer.

I have to admit when he signed for Liverpool, I was dead against it, but he won me over and now I am proud that Crouch played for Liverpool, and I have never been so happy to be wrong, and after watching him play for us his skill is very underrated, some of the goals he scored , if Suarez, Salah, Mane, Torres score them we purr about them, Crouch does it and many people seem to be "whatever". He scored some truly brilliant goals that I will remember, my favourite is one of the hat trick against Arsenal, the one Bergkamp would have been proud of ;-) Dude did not have "a great touch for a big man", dude just had a great touch.

I still remember as a Newcastle fan, while he was at Stoke, think we were wining against them at the time, and then I saw he was coming on, and I thought 'FFS.' and wouldn't you know it, he was the reason we didn't win that game lol.

Crouch often misunderstood because of his height. Coaches would assume he'll be good with his head, but Crouch is actually very very good dribbler.

I went to a Championship game once. I was horrified and frightened by the level of hate spewing from people around me. Never again. And delighted that Mr Crouch seems to have pulled through so brilliantly.

The cause for his early struggle was his father, 100%. The fact that he thrived under Harry is not only because he's extremely talented, I think it's also because Harry was like the father he should have had. Those bicycle kick goals and his crazy control, I'll never forget.

I never realised all of this. Crouch is an authentic and decent human-being. Guy had skills. All he needed was for someone to believe in him. His wife and Redknapp gave him the strength he needed to prove himself. Best way to introduce the middle finger to all those dumb fans/people.
