As a teenager trying to make it in the cut-throat world of professional football, Peter Crouch was a “freakish, big tall gangly kid, all arms and legs [like] Bambi on ice".
If that description sounds unflattering, consider that it is from one of Crouch’s earliest supporters, a youth coach at his first professional club, Tottenham Hotspur. Some of his detractors were far more cruel, and Crouch’s battle to prove his doubters wrong is the overarching theme of a new documentary, That Peter Crouch Film.
