Peter James Crouch (born January 30, 1981 in Macclesfield, Cheshire) is an English international football player, known affectionately as "Crouchy" to many fans. He currently plays for the English club Liverpool as a striker. His height of 2.01 m / 6 ft 7 in makes him the tallest man ever to play for either Liverpool or the England national team, as well as the tallest player currently in the Premiership. He is also known for his robotic dancing goal celebration, performed after scoring for England in the pre-World Cup friendly matches in the spring of 2006.
Nicknames
As well as "Crouchy", other nicknames he has been given by fans and the media in England have included "RoboCrouch"[9] and "Crouchinho" (a parody of Ronaldinho), despite "Crouchinho" translating from Portuguese as "little Crouch".[
During Liverpool's victory over Bordeaux in 2006, commentator Peter Drury said: "...and here's Crouch, like some rampaging super-spider!"
Robotic dancing
In the summer of 2006, Crouch briefly became particularly celebrated in the English media for his unusual robotic dancing goal celebration. A parody of a dance he had been seen performing on a television programme covering a party held at England team-mate David Beckham's house, he first performed it after his goal for England against Hungary on May 30. Two days after the match, Crouch repeated the dance at the request of Prince William during an England training session attended by the Prince. He again performed the dance, at the prompting of his team-mates, after both of his first two goals against Jamaica on June 3. The dance was briefly a celebrated pop culture event, garnering much media coverage.
On Monday 12 June, Crouch announced he would only perform his robotic dance again if England were to win the World Cup, saying "It's not about robotic dancing. It is about scoring goals and winning matches. It's an important time for everyone now".[

彼得·高治(Peter Crouch,1981年1月30日—),英格蘭足球員,現為利物浦足球會的前鋒。
[編輯] 生涯
身高1.98米的高治首間效力的是於1999年至2000年的英超球會熱刺,但沒有在聯賽上上陣過一場,後來於2000年,高治被外借至希斯利哥爾摩。
00年-01年球季,高治在英甲的昆士柏流浪共上陣42場聯賽,並射入10球。
一季後,高治轉至樸茨茅夫以及阿士東維拉,合共上陣42場聯賽,並攻入20球。之後兩季,高治留在阿士東維拉,上陣30場,並射入4球。
在03年-04年球季,高治先後在阿士東維拉聯賽上陣16場,並射入4球,之後被外借至英甲球會諾域治城足球會,上陣15場聯賽,並射入4球。
返回阿士東維拉後,高治被賣至修咸頓,在這季中,高治為球會上陣27場聯賽並射入12球,但無助球會降至英冠的事實,球會降級後,高治被利物浦以700萬英鎊簽入,但一直欠缺之前的應有的表現,被質疑不值700萬高價,高治直到12月3日在主場對韋根的球賽的19分鐘攻入了加盟利物浦足球會的第一個進球。之後的兩個星期,高治於世界冠軍球會盃射入兩球。
在國家隊方面,高治的第一場上陣是於5月的美國之遊,現時由於英格蘭的前鋒人選甚多,因此高治在國家隊的地位並不穩定,高治只在陣了5場的球賽。
在2006年的世界盃,高治代表英格蘭前往德國參與該屆的世界盃,並而在對千里達的分組賽中攻入他個人生涯中首個的世界盃進球。
[編輯] 評論
國家隊隊友祖高爾:「他控制技術十分出眾,他是優秀球員。他是英格蘭國家隊陣營內重要成員,他穿上英格蘭球衣將會有美滿時刻。」
前英格蘭國家隊領隊艾歷臣:「高治是一位好球員,他擁有其他球員沒有的東西。他對波蘭的世界盃外圈賽之前,只踢了一場半國家隊比賽,現在便評價他的能力是十分困難,但得對他有很高的期望。」
