Crouch has a good touch but his heading ability is poor for such a tall guy, especially if he jumps and heads the ball at the same time. Graham Taylor has sid that his jumping may not be that strong because he does not need to rely so much on jumping ability because he is so tall.

He has been working his butt off and he desperately needs a goal. We also don't use his ability to knock down and make some play for a partnering striker as much as we should because this is his strength.

I hope he scores soon, he desperately needs that for his confidence.

I can't fault him at all for his efforts. Kewell needs to pay attention, and try to put in a bit more effort into his game.

Poor peter crouch, he trys so hard yet he cant score.

I have to admit the last goal in the argentina game i thought for a moment crouch had got the header, wished he had really. However i do feel the games he plays seem to change for the better when he comes on even tho he doesnt score he seem to cause problems for defences which creates chances for other players.

I hope he gets his first goal soon im hoping he will get us at least 10 goals this season.

I don't think Crouch is improving at the moment. I'm sure he will though...most likely when he gets off the mark.

I think his overall game has been pretty good, he just can't seem to score... which is a rather important part of his job.

He needs a goal soon or his confidence will be shot, if anything though I would say his last few games for Liverpool have been poor when you look at his attempts. He hasn't seemed to hit the ball cleanly and always appears to be a yard behind the ball.

His build up play has been his saving grace. Outside the box, he seems to has a great first touch and looks in control of what he is doing. His problems start when he gets in front of goal, but that could be the anxiety of getting his first goal.

As I probably won't stay and therefore the backlash will be water off a duck's back I have to say Crouch is not a Liverpool quality player. To give him credit for his work-rate is laughable, yes he works hard and tries hard but that should be a must not considered an asset. Lazy :censored:

must be ejected from Liverpool. His finishing has been poor, headers and shots straight at the keeper and even though he forced a save from the penalty yesterday he surely must score a gift wrapped chance like that.

His pace is just not sufficient, while his touches on and passes of the ball are quite good that really isn't what you pay £7m for. We sold Baros for less before giving him a chance. As for turning matches for us, the penalty against Villa was a soft award. If we had been on the receiving end I know ALL of you would have been up in arms. Cole turned the game for England against Argentina, I saw one contribution from Crouch worth anything and that was chasing down a defender in the right back slot which lead to a Beckham effort on goal. All this "he causes defenders problems" I've heard it all before of players who have little else to give them credit for.

I wasn't wrong about Houllier, we'll see if I'm right about Cisse (not being worth £14m) and I'm hoping I'm not wrong about Benitez being the man to win us the league. The latter's job was made so much harder by moneybags buying the league for Chavski, it may be noone but chavski can win the league

i think we are now going in the right direction mate

by **dawson99** » Tue Nov 22, 2005 12:08 pm

id rather start with morientez and cisse, bring on crouch if we need soething different, thats what he was brought for.

Its all well and good saying hes doing everything but score, but hes a striker!!! his job is to score. We have a good enough midfield for them to create so he should be poking the goals in. Make him a sub for a bit, what we need is to keep winning, not to keep saying 'aww bless him, hes trying so hard'

(i knwo this is harsh and now i bet he scores tonight!!!)

by **Fuios** » Wed Nov 23, 2005 8:37 pm
