    Considering how well England did recently against similar quality opposition, I would have thought that they were past the point of demeaning such acheivements.

    Besides which, he's only really started one game against decent opposition. The Spain friendly where he was void of decent service.

    Drogba, 30 goals this season, imo is the best striker in Europe.

    I wanted Man Utd to sign him when it looked like Ruud was going to leave in 2004.

    If Crouch is available this summer surely you'll flog off Rooney to fund a bid? United with a genuine World Class striker would be a scary prospect.

    If Liverpool want to win the Premiership next season then surely they should keep there World Class players like Crouch.

    Plus Crouch wouldn't suit our style of play.

    Ah right. I assumed it was just strikers left in the Champions League. Has to be Eto'o still. He is not back to his best but expect it before too long.
