Crouching Tiger Hidden Talent

I’ve got to say that I’m developing a bit of a soft spot for Peter Crouch. For a start, the top half of his face doesn’t really match the bottom half and that’s quite endearing really. Secondly he’s come in to replace Rooney, a pretty tough job by anyone’s reckoning and I always support the underdog. Lastly, and probably quite predictably, I like the way he moves.
Speaking as a girl who recently took part in a dance-off at a barbecue whilst wearing a Brian May wig, stupid dancing is right up there with beer and fags as ingredients for a good night out. Now when I performed my favourite breakdance move I was pissed and I was with my closest friends. Despite that, I still felt a bit of a twat. But Crouch was sober and was being watched by millions of people. Now that takes a thick skin and an ability to take the piss out of yourself. Two qualities that any England footballer should have in spades.
More dancing, Peter! More dancing!!!
Oh, and some more goals too, if that can be arranged!

Crouch may no Cruyff or Beckenbauer for looks but at least he is tall. So was Jackie Charlton - and I don’t think he could dance. Do we expect this England team to dance their way through?

we certainly hope so! perhaps they should forget about the world cup and go for Strictly Dance Fever instead

Lets hope that the next time Crouch scores, we not only get to his dance but also hear him scream: “TIMMAH!!!!!”

Ahh love, you didn’t look like a twat - well, no more than the rest of us! Remind me again why we all did the crab?
Still not convinced by Crouch & as you well know I’m a big fan of the underdog. Hopefully my doubts will be laid to rest on saturday??

Forget Strictly Come Dancing, they should have entered Eurovision this year instead. With moves like that we could have kicked the butt of all the 80s-throwback Eastern European countries for once, AND still have displayed the most up-to-date dance moves int he contest…

If Crouch scores another hat-trick do you think he might try a head spin?

Maybe we could put him in a dance off with Makalele?
