Weak as a kitten - Check
Out-jumped by small men - Check
As mobile as GNW - Check
Poor in the air on the whole - Check
Stupid decisions - Check
Time to drop him, he's the new Kitson

I've said this before in another thread and I'll say it again. When 8-9 of the other players are also playing like they're on the fucking moon what do you expect him to do? Skin the whole team?

We didn't look like scoring at all once he went off the pitch though.

Nothing against Crouch but to spend £10million when we are overloaded with Centre forwards and have no midfield or full backs, was folly in my book. Could have spent the money much better in my opinion,

extra long socks ...or stockings if you're radio stoke ... to be fair to Crouchy I think he brings quite a lot to the game ..I like his ethos ..no doubt I'm about to get slated for saying that ..but toooo late !
I like Jerome even more ....I think he's real quality.

I can not believe that you are even questioning Crouch's contribution and commitment to the team.
If you think of the individuals and their performance levels, Delap in particular, they have been extremely poor over the last 6-7 games.
Crouchy has been by far one of our better players and even though he may be playing at his average level, his class has still shone through at times.

Delap was shit but he cost nothing and does get dropped every now and again Etherington was toss but what option do we have? I was skeptical about the signing of Crouch, after the Wolves game I thought he might prove me wrong. Unfortunately he hasnt at all and should be our 5th choice striker as we speak |

When he does get service he just falls over anyway, or attempts over-head kicks instead of bringing the ball down or getting his head on it

I think Rory costing nothing says it all... dropped? What on earth are you talking about.. He has made 25 appearances this season and started 19!
As in Crouch being the 5th pick for strikers, that says it all!

Crouch is a much better player (footballer) than our team set up allows him to be. Why did we buy him to use him as a glorified Sidibe? Good question. |

As in Crouch being the 5th pick for strikers, that says it all! Not always, but he is occasionally, and he still has more merit than Crouch does. Yeah, 5th: Jerome Fuller Walters Jones Crouch Sidibe |

He would bring us a hell of a lot more if we had a midfield that could give him the service he needs.
He gets fuck all decent service pretty much every game,and he must be regretting coming here,he gets fuck all to feet and just feeds off high balls trying to win flick ons which isn't what he is about.
Complete waste of 10 million unless we change our style,which is never going to happen while Pulis is in charge.

It's all very nice trying to twat bicycle kick when your pissing around with your mates down the park, not when you have the opportunity to bring your team back into a massive, massive game. People around me were talking about it as though it was the best thing they had ever seen..."If that had gone in...." blah blah blah. If he had brought it down and scuffed it in then we would be in a much better position now! What is the difference between Delap smashing it into the boothen from 40 yards and Crouch blazing it over. The only one I can think of it PC is there to score goals and his was a much better, easier chance! But most people don't dare say a bad word about him....fucking ridiculous |

Why do we play Crouch when we have Kenwyne Jones - a way better target man...Kenwyne Jones can actually win a fucking header the amount of chances crouch has had to win headers is stupid even defoe could outjump him...wank waste of money lanky shit

The team certainly don't bring anything to Fuller if you've seen any of the goals that he's scored then nine times out of ten it's all his own work, Jermoe is quite similar to Fuller, Crouch is a goal scorer ie. give him the ball in the area and he usually scores, but we don't do that. I don't know why we bought him in when Jones, Fuller, Jerome and Walters can all hit the target and 10M could have improved the squad in other "more important areas". The problem is the supply, always has been and always will be until TP sorts it out. |
