Mark Posted 19 July 2005 Share Posted 19 July 2005 Silly money for him. They have a major striker problem since Owen left, that's what happens when you rely on someone for so long. But they are now European Champions and that's the best they've come up with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anish Posted 19 July 2005 Share Posted 19 July 2005 Southampton must be laughing all the way to the bank with that sort of money. After all, how much did they pay for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not £7 million pounds worth, but I do think he's decent. His height will obviously cause no end of problems and he wins a lot of free kicks due to being so awkward to handle. Having watched him a few times, his touch is extremely good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitesh Posted 21 July 2005 Share Posted 21 July 2005 They could of got Owen back for that kind of money! And would of been guaranteed 20+ goals a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Posted 21 July 2005 Share Posted 21 July 2005 Nothing wrong with Crouch, but why buy him and sell Heskey. I know who I would keep, though Crouch I am sure will turn out to be a useful player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know who I would keep, though Crouch I am sure will turn out to be a useful player. 141896[/snapback] they have brought crouch to help cisse in the air, he has premiership experience at the wrong end of the table and still managed to do well, i think crouch will do well tbh + he isnt gonna be a flop as he has the experience most players (like morientes) dont have... and as cobbo said... his touch is spot on .. he will be lethal when the pin point ball of steven gerrard belts him in his fat ed n hits the back of the net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 22 July 2005 Share Posted 22 July 2005 He's a danger if the ball hits him, but that's about it really. I have the feeling he's a one season wonder, but that's just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Posted 23 July 2005 Share Posted 23 July 2005 He's a decent player, but 7m?!!! And the European champions?! He'd do well at an average mid-table side that is maybe challenging for the UEFA cup, someone like Man City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Posted 24 July 2005 Share Posted 24 July 2005 Thing that has had me most about this transfer is that Liverpool don't even play the style of football that Crouch would be most suited to. He would have been much better going to a club who do, like Man City who have been mentioned before or someone like Charlton or Bolton. Strange, very strange indeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Posted 24 July 2005 Share Posted 24 July 2005 But that doesn't make them an average midtable side does it? They still finished 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest teenuck Posted 24 July 2005 Share Posted 24 July 2005 I think he is a talented young player, I think 7 mil is a fair price, although he may not be a huge success at Liverpool. Don't know what you lot are complaining about. teenuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationwider Posted 24 July 2005 Share Posted 24 July 2005 Crouch is a good player. He'll give them an extra dimension, especially in Europe. I don't see him starting every game, but Rafa will do the squad rotation thing with Crouch, Cisse, Morientes and Baros(?) etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston Fan Posted 25 July 2005 Share Posted 25 July 2005 Crouch is a good player I think. But Liverpool don't play the type of football really. So to make the signing worth it, they need to change their game plan, But why change one that wins European titles? Boston Fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
