    This from http://www.tottenhamblog.com

    by MATTHEW HARRIS on FEBRUARY 3, 2011

    If we could play Blackburn every week then maybe we wouldn’t have concerns over Peter Crouch! Crouchy spoke before yesterday’s game about his desire to continue his scoring record against them – he scored twice at Ewood Park last year and his only Premier League goal this season had come in our 4-2 win in December.

    Harry reverted to a 4-4-2 last night, which was something that many fans had been hoping for. Crouch and Defoe took their places up front, with Van der Vaart dropping back. It was VDV’s pin-point cross that Crouch nodded in for the goal.

    Redknapp was particularly pleased with Rafa’s contribution: “Van der Vaart has many qualities. I liked him on the right and their left defender left him to attack. Rafael was always after him and he probably tonight ran more miles than he has throughout his life. But he kept the space well filled and his passing was brilliant.”

    So big Crouchy doubled his league tally last night but two goals is still a poor return. If though we keep going with 4-4-2 for the rest of the season, does this give him and the rest of the team the best chance to achieve their targets?

    I hope 4-4-2 isn't the future. Before you all jump on me and say 'yeah but 4-5-1 don't suit us' I will say that I would like to see the team adapted for any given match and if necessary through the game. To just play 4-4-2 could make us very predictable and 'arry needs to approach each game with the thought of the players required & tactics needed to get a result. LOL and this from me, a disciple to the 3 centre halfs and a formation of 3-1-3-1-2 (or possibly 3-1-3-2-1). . . . .

    i see what your saying. like away at blackburn is a sort of game for crouch. but winnable home games should be 442.

    play 451 in a lot of away games
