Crouch is good if you play to his strengths.
With us he had Robert Prosinecki to put balls on his head and all he had to do was let them bounce into the goal. For Southampton last season he flicked it on for Phillips and Camara and got on the end of crosses from Prutton and Le Saux. Against us in the cup game all they did was launch long balls for him to flick on. All this stuff about "he has good touch for a big man!!!!!" is bollocks, his height is the only useful thing about him. But the problem is, he isn't particularly strong with his height.
