Crouch keen to score more

Last updated : 14 March 2007 By Al Campbell
Crouch is currently out recovering from an operation on his broken nose. The striker is hoping to return in time for Liverpool's Champions League quarter final with PSV Eindhoven and then hopes to go on a goalscoring run.

"Goals are the things that are most likely to keep me in favour with the manager. As a striker you have got to score goals, and if called upon you have got to do your best for the team," he said.

"Personally, I want to go on a goalscoring run like any other striker and I'm sure I will.

"It gets a bit annoying when people talk about Liverpool needed a regular goalscorer. I feel that when I've played this season, I've scored goals and certainly at the start of the season I was on a good run with my country as well.

"Whenever I play, I feel as though I can get goals and it's the same with the other lads as well."
