Crouch set for January exit !!!
Aston Villa are set to make a January transfer window move for out of favour Liverpool striker Peter Crouch according to the mirror. Crouch, who has struggled to get a place in the starting eleven at Anfield, used to play for the Midlands club under David O'Leary. But he was sold in 2004 to Southampton after a forgettable stint at the club.
Crouch has been linked with numerous amounts of clubs during the past couple of months as speculation mounts that Liverpool are looking for a new striker and that would almost guarantee the departure of Crouch. Newcastle, Man City and Portsmouth are all said to be keen on signing the 26 year old, but Reds boss Rafa Benitez has insisted he's not for sale.
I think it's time for Crouch to leave Anfield because he has only had one Premier League start this season and that in turn has led to his omission from the England squad. I have seen figures like £10 million for Crouch but I don't think he is worth that. I feel £7 million would be a fair fee for the 6 foot 7 inch tall striker. It will be very interesting to see who he may join, that's if Rafa decides to let him go.

Absolutly pure speculation, even though both player and manager have stated he is going nowhere, seems the media just need page fillers and make their own news up. Seriously go do some proper research on football talk because this is old, boring and has been denied more than once.
