Who did peter crouch play for before liverpool ?
QPR & Portsmouth On July 28, 2000 Tottenham sold Crouch to Queens Park Rangers (QPR) for £60,000.[3] He made an immediate impression with QPR, scoring ten league goals in the 2000–01 season, but it was not enough to prevent the team’s relegation to Division 2 (now Football League One). Relegation meant that QPR had to sell many of their best players to support their diminished finances, and Portsmouth bought Crouch from them for £1.25 million. Crouch scored 18 league goals in only 37 starts for Portsmouth — benefiting from the crossing of Robert Prosinečki — and that in a side that for much of the season looked destined to be in a relegation battle. Aston Villa In March 2002, FA Premier League side Aston Villa made a successful £5 million bid for Crouch. He scored on his home debut for Villa, the equalising goal against Newcastle United, and managed to net twice in seven games. However, Crouch failed to hold down a regular place in the Aston Villa side in the following 2002–03 season.
