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.

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

@Bleech606 5 ай бұрын

I had forgotten about this. You are absolutely correct. He often got free kicks against him just for being tall when he challenged for headers as though his elbows were high but that's just where they were due to his height.

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.

@kohikappu 4 ай бұрын

@@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.
