Crouch delighted for Defoe

by Admin , 07 September 2010

Spurs striker Peter Crouch has heaped praise on his club and country team-mate Jermain Defoe.


Despite having a niggling groin problem, Defoe is expected to lead the line for England against Switzerland on Tuesday and Crouch has nothing but praise for Friday's hat-trick hero.

He told the Spurs' official website: "It's fantastic for Jermain and he took his goals really well. I was really pleased for him.

"I thought the movement for all his goals was fantastic, the way he took defenders away and made space for himself. He looked really sharp.

"I've played with him a lot and he's going to get goals whenever he plays. He's so sharp around the box and with that kind of movement England have, the players will find him and create the chances.

"As strikers, we all benefit from that."
