Post by: Batch on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 11:39:33 Blimey, 2 in a whole season. If he can scroe against Deportivo Saprissa he can score against anyone.
Quick, put him in the England squad. Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: fatbury on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 11:39:48 now has two in one match! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Seriously though I caught some of the game down in our 'lounge' (Re-branded canteen - equivalent of your wankers wine bar of lunch time snackeries) and I'd have expected my Mother could have scored against that team. And she's dead. Not really, and I'm sure her snatch is rather appealing. Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)...

Post by: DV on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 15:50:36 thats rubbish, was never his goal. Wasnt on target untill it hit the defender
Saying that the ol' dutch man Luc got his against Man Utd didnt he? Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 16:28:10 They've made the correct decision and it was an odvious one, should have made it a lot sooner.
The shot was always on target even before it hit the defender so there is no debate, if that wasn't his goal then you'd have to put any goal that the goalkeeper got a touch on as an own goal which would be ridiculous. The committee have odviously spent the time analysing it and they've decided it was a goal so it's time to accept it was, he's got four goals in four games and it's nothing less than he's deserved. They've also been quality goals. This can only be good news for England, so any England fan should be happy for him. Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Northern Red on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 16:33:37 Goalkeepers rarely get put down for own goals, its usually given to the striker.
Defenders don't seem to get the same 'protection' and are seen as more liable for their own goals Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 16:34:51 Yes and the goal was originally awarded to the goalkeeper which was bizarre but good to see they've rectified the mistake.

It's pointless arguing about it now, the decision has been made, the panel know the rules, they've seen the footage and they don't agree with you. Quote Whatever you say Ben Wah.... You said "odvious" twice by the way, not a real word according to www.dictionary.com . Not just what I say, what the people who matter say. and what history will say. If you want to think something else even though it's wrong then go on but it's irrelevant, pointless and boring arguing about it so I've wrote a song instead. I was right You were wrong I am great You're a mong Obvious is just about the only word I consistently spell wrong but there are words you always spell wrong too, so I'd definetely :wink: not worry about that too much.

Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 18:45:11 Quote from: "nozza" It appears that we have differing opinions Ben Wah. For a striker Yorke does not score enough goals, surely you can admit that? He can't really a head a ball very well and he often trips over his own legs. He's a nice bloke and I want him to do well but do you really think that he is worth £7 million? For me he doesn't stand out. You're young and don't understand the game....the reason why Liverpool are doing so well this season particularly defensively, with essentially the same players as last season is down to the Crouchmeister.....this is why a top manager like Benitez would regard his 7 mill as a bargain. Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 18:55:06 Quote from: "nozza" I respect your opinion Reg but I think that the money would be better spent buying a striker who can really finish well every time, Yorke misses a fair few chances. Football is a team game....you can have a goalscorer say Owen, who is a great finisher but doesn't contribute so much elsewhere, this may not be to the taste of every manager, as the gain of the goals is offset by the loss elsewhere.....which is why when given the option to sign the Crouchmeister or Owen, Benitez preferred Crouchy.

He's a nice bloke and I want him to do well but do you really think that he is worth £7 million? For me he doesn't stand out. No I don't agree. For a big forward whose main job is to hold the ball up and keep possession his scoring record is fine. He's started less than 20 games for Liverpool and has 4 goals, the same as Jermain Defoe. Not many people are moaning about how many Defoe's scored. Now he's started scoring this ratio is likely to keep on improving. Last year Crouchy scored 16 in half a season, is that not enough? When he "trips over" he wins a free kick more often than not as he normally had control of the ball and was fouled. I think he's worth every bit of £7million and I'm sure if Benitez was offered 7 or even 10 million for him in January he wouldn't sell him. You say they don't have a deadly striker and that's what they need to be up at the top but look at the table, they are 3rd and would move back to 2nd if they won their game in hand, so they are up there. Fair play for recognising he's a good team player though. Anyway I think I've argued about this enough, I'm bored of it, a lot of people don't care although why they bother reading anyway is anyone's guess. Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 19:15:28 Quote from: "nozza" He is a good team player I'll give you that but Liverpool have struggled for goals and they don't really have a striker who is deadly, which is what they need if they are to be up there at the top of the premiership. Again Nozzza you couldn't be more wrong...Chelsea's leading scorer is a midfield player, they also won the league last season with the same player as leading scorer, scoring 13 goals, the lowest ever total by a title winning side. Chelsea's striker Drogba has 6 goals this season. The Crouchmeister nearly scored as many as Lampard last season and Soton got relegated. Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 19:20:28 Quote from: "nozza" I think we should agree to disagree and if Yorke starts playing and scoring consistently then I will back him all the way. I have nothing against the bloke, but I think that there are better strikers out there...and btw about 4 of those goals last season were scored against lower league opposition. He is good at holding the ball up, but I would prefer to have a goalscorer in my team. I question whether he is good enough for the England squad or not though. No Nozza...I'm right you're wrong, its that simple. They don't allow lower league opposition ot play in the Premiership, so none of The Crouchmeister's dozen could have been scored against them.

Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 19:42:41 Quote from: "nozza" They were scored against lower league opposition in the cup. I don't to get into an argument about it, I think he is an alright player worthy of a place in the Premiership but I think that Liverpool could do better. He was great for Southampton he just needs to reproduce that form for Liverpool and they will do well. If you make subjective statements of opinion and dress them up as fact, then someone will argue with you....you cannot say that 4 of Crouchy's 12 Prem goals were scored against lower league teams in the cup when they weren't.....even if you don't want to get into an argument about it. The thing to do is say sorry Reg... Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 19:52:33 Quote from: "nozza" I didn't say that his 4 of his premiership goals were scored against lower league opposition I said that 4 of his goals last season were against teams from lower leagues. Including 2 against Northampton, one against Brentford and one against another team (can't remember who). I went to a Southampton match last season and saw him play and he wasn't that great (it was home against Brentford FA cup 5th round), but he did look hilarious when he was stood next to Kevin Phillips....but anyway: :cheers: Sorry Reg :) :nod: I like the stats keep up the good work. Title: Peter Crouch (aka Crouchy)... Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 20:06:10 The other cup goal was against Portsmouth who were in the premiership.

Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, December 15, 2005, 20:14:34 I don't think he scored in the league cup, that would be 17 goals. His first goal was aginst Bolton on 25th August.
Quote [fans flames] I'd rather have Defoe in the England squad than crouchy, and I ain't no Defoe fan. [/fans flames] Well I am a Defoe fan but on current form I'd much rather have Crouchy, Defoe is unlucky because he's too similar to Owen but not as good, I'd just about pick him in the squad though ahead of Vassell.
