    None of them are as good as Peter Crouch, Grant Holt or Matty Fryat.

    They're very passionate about their football in Turkey and the stadiums can be very hostile to foreign teams.

    Having said that, when Spurs beat Besiktas 2-0 in Turkey a few years ago, the entire stadium stood and gave us a standing ovation at the end.
