In contrast I remember watching Peter Crouch and thinking for a lanky gawky looking bloke his ball control for one was really good. I’d never seen a bloke looking like him actually have ball control skill like he had, plus he could accurately head a ball and knew where to make his runs in the attacking third

I remember him playing against us (for QPR?) and you are spot on.
Looked very good actually apart from his heading at that stage.
He got really hacked off with a manager who tried to use him as a heading donkey type, can't remember who?
