Newcastle manager Glenn Roeder has confirmed his interest in Liverpool's Peter Crouch.
The England striker looks to be losing his battle with Dirk Kuyt and Craig Bellamy for a starting role as Rafa Benitez edges away from his rotation policy.
Roeder looks set to invest heavily in the January transfer window and a new striker is believed to be on his list of targets.
Crouch has been linked with a possible switch to St James' Park and now Roeder has admitted he is an admirer of the 25-year-old.
"I am an admirer of the way Peter Crouch plays and the fact is that he also scores goals," said Roeder, who is also believed to be keeping tabs on Mark Viduka.

Exactly. He cost us that much to start with and since then he has scored plenty of goals after a slow start and been first choice for his country at the World Cup.

Either or both and I'd be happy.
