What makes me laugh is that we almost certainly bought him for “a total consideration of up to £16.5 million” and obviously not the full whack.

Peter Crouch and a logical equation

No technique?

Peter Crouch has signed! Yey!

Yes I’d have preferred Klaas-Jan Huntelaar too but I don’t agree with all of the negativity on the message boards about Crouch. We all know what the equation is in football transfers; if he’s better than what you have, better than what you can get and you can afford
