Peter Crouch is heading to Portsmouth. Sad loss for the Kop,
but it’s a fair move for Crouch who’d become a super-sub.
“He was relegated behind Torres, who scored 33 goals for the Reds after signing from Atletico Madrid last summer. However, he was a popular figure with Liverpool fans and still managed to net 11 goals as he was mainly used as a substitute by Benitez.” BBC Sport

They were last season’s giant killers, reached the FA Cup final for the first time since 1939, and won in fine style to take the covetted trophy. That victory booked them a place in next season’s UEFA Cup first round, which should be perfect for ‘robot-man’ Crouch, he’s a vetran when it comes to European action. More details
