Also that was Crouch's fifth goal.
Peter Crouch couldn't hide his delight at scoring his fifth goal of the season in Liverpool's 2-0 win over Newcastle United and said he was definitely claiming the goal.
Some media organisations have tried to say it was an own goal from Newcastle goalkeeper Shay Given but Crouch for one is definitely claiming it.
"Are people trying to take all my goals away from me?" responded Crouch. "There's no way it wasn't my goal," added the England striker.
"As soon as I saw it I thought it was over the line. It gave us the chance to settle down."
Crouch is in line for a Merseyside derby debut against Everton on Wednesday and it is a match he personally can't wait to experience.
"I'm really looking forward to the derby and can't wait and we go there with a lot of confidence," added Crouch.
Ya bunch of wanks.
