    Any truth in the rumours of him leaving Stoke? West Ham & us are in for him by the rumour mill.

    I like Crouch, but I can't see us shelling out the reported £10m for him.

    I like Crouch also, but I cannot see us shelling out that sort of money.

    10 mill? I read 3/4 tops, no way in hell Stoke's getting that money at his age. Liverpool just paid peanuts for Lambert FFS.

    Not for me really. He's too immobile for a 352, we need movement up top. Jelavic and Sagbo already give us bigger, tougher options alongside Long and Aluko.

    He and Aluko would make for an interesting looking 442 pairing though :p

    I read £10m to West Ham on Friday. £3/4m will be good business.

    £10 million would be absolutely awful business for a 33 year old who has only scored 15 goals in two seasons.

    I don't know were 10 million came from more like 1 million which for me is nothing now a days and if things were not going to plan he would be a decent to bring on

    He'd be worse than Prossie was. 1 million would be too much for a bench warmer like him.

    Indeed. As would 3 to 4 million.

    I cannot for the life of me see why we would be interested in giving one last payday to an aging, average at best, beanpole whose somewhat limited glory days are a long time in the past.

    Quite like Crouch, good player.

    Wouldn't spend any considerable amount on him though, nor a long contract. Would make an excellent FAT but can't see there being much value for money if they're wanting any sort of respectable fee for him.

    It's obvious you don't watch much football.
