CROUCH PUTS REDS BEFORE HIMSELF

Crouch accepts Rafa's decisions

Music to Rafa's ears from Peter Crouch today as the player insists he accepts Rafa's policy of rotating his players for the reds games.

Crouch, who is away on international duty with England this week, insists he has no problem with being left out of the Liverpool side.

"I missed four (games) in a row, which was frustrating and then came in for Europe and did well, scored two," said Crouch.

"I don't see that it affects my form being left out or only playing the odd game here and there.

"But, at a club like Liverpool, there's going to be chopping and changing everywhere and you just have to put up with it, I suppose.

"I feel like I can play every game, I want to play every game but it's not always the case.

"I've been starting games regularly for England and enjoying that.

"I've missed the last few at Liverpool but I don't see a problem with that at all."
