Peter Crouch to Newcastle

[REDSCOUSER]

He is infinately better than Torres but to be fair that's not saying much. Torres has just never lived up to the hype has he?

we all know the market is inflated nowadays but can you find another striker with his experience at 25 & his goal scoring record ?
He works really hard this lad and if we can flock Crouch for 12£ which is again way over his price then we will be laughing all the way to #19 next season.

Kuyt & Villa up front

I'm not knocking Villa I'm just expressing how poor I think Torres is.

Would I like us to sign David Villa? Yes!

Will we sign him? Not a chance!

I know yer not knockin' him mate
If we get the investment then I can't see why we can't sign Villa in January.
The Geordies always paid over the odds for players, don't bet on them NOT doing it again

I'm all for selling Crouch, especially for £12m!

What is your plan B then? Huth?

OK, Crouch is no Shearer, but Villa isn't either, and Crouch is closer to Shearer than Villa is, and we have enough little uns doing that role, it's the Shearer type of player we need to compliment the other strikers we have, so I'd rather keep Crouchy for that role and shift Robbie on actually, as much as that saddens me, that is my first acknowledgement of me wanting to move Robbie out of the way for someone else.

Agree. We need a 3rd/4th striker who is going to push Kuyt and Bellamy to the limit!

[kopdan]

this Crouch story is gathering momentum isnt it

[thesilverfoxlfc]

Sell him wont be missed if we get the likes of Villa Torress etc.....

[kopdan]

Crouch has weighed in with goals when played. He gives us something different.

I think him leaving will leave a hole in our play especially in Europe

[Harv]

Just done the 'morning papers' review on SSN. That unmentionable paper that is nearly always full of horse-**** says Crouch is 'set to move to Newcastle for £12m' (), and they also showed an unnamed broadsheet reporting "Crouch set to be sold to Newcastle to pave the way for a move for David Villa".

If only

12 mill for Crouchie-- bite their hands off!!! I like the guy....but thats a handsome profit there

[The_weatherman]

I think Crouch would actually do well in a team like Newcastle, they have Duff, NZogbia, Solano and Dyer to cross for him and Martins/Owen to play upfront with him. They would have an decent attack, too bad their defense sucks and will probably continue to do so.

[AFII]

Roeder have said that they will make a bid so of course the papers will then come up with a story about us selling him to them and replacing him with Villa.

Villa isn't happy at Valencia right now and is prepared to leave if you believe the rumours.

[ElRobbie]

He makes them all up to fit whatever anti-Crouch agenda is currently being discussed.

Its not an anti-Crouch agenda, its a pro-Liverpool agenda, we need better players then Peter Crouch for a shot at the title, its not a personal dig at Crouch its a post about the team, saying we need a higher claibre/quality striker to compete with the best teams.

[ElRobbie]

Both of you are spot on! He did say that. I remember wondering "who the f*ck does he think he is?!". I find it funny now though!

Why, he doesn't have to like the Beatles, or England?
