From SkySports Jose Mourinho has warned England not to play Peter Crouch against Portugal in their World Cup quarter final on Saturday. The Chelsea chief has a foot in both camps and an inside knowledge of the two teams. Mourinho feels that playing Crouch would be an error due to Ricardo Carvalho's ability to contain the giant Liverpool forward. "In the games against Liverpool, I believe Carvalho devoured the information about the opponents and their way of playing," said Mourinho. "In the Champions League game, he gave an excellent performance. "There was no time and space and Liverpool tried to solve that with direct play to Crouch, but Carvalho was impeccable in that unequal fight against a giant who makes it difficult. "In the next match, Carvalho had an astonishing game - he closed down on Crouch's movements, won everything by anticipation, adapted to the jumping distance when making him and won everything in the air, came away with the ball to begin attacking moves, always with accurate passes. "He showed great concentration and intelligence to push the team forward." ---- 我怎麼記得盯Crouch的是蔣特里.... --
