"I thought it was a good performance today," said Crouch.
"We had a lot of players who hadn't played a lot of football lately and when that happens it can go one of two ways. We can give up or we can show what we're made of.
"Of course I was pleased with my goal. It's been a while and I thought I'd be a bit rusty to be honest. It was nice to score and to remind people that I'm still alive. I felt I got into the game and really enjoyed it.
"I just want to play as much football as possible. It's frustrating when you're not involved in the big games but I was part of it today and hopefully I can play more games between now and the end of the season."
