- Could Messi, Iniesta, Xavi and Villa have coped with a peak-Tony Pulis Stoke City team on a cold, wet Tuesday at the Bet365?
In the 'Tactics' episode, Peter Crouch reveals the Tottenham goalkeeper who shed a tear at Stoke City's 'aerial bombardment' and teams that didn't fancy a battle against a Tony Pulis side (usually Arsenal).

Could Barcelona do it on a cold, wet Tuesday night in Stoke? | That Peter Crouch Podcast - Sport
The facial resemblance between Peter Crouch and Arsenal's Nacho Monreal is mind boggling.
stephen graham funny thing is that they both look like modric
Lingard and messi also do look alike

Thank you!!

You are a legend
Interviewer: Peter Crouch, what would you be if you weren't a professional footballer?
Peter Crouch: A Virgin.

Can Stoke City do it on a warm sunny afternoon in Barcelona ?. I don't think so.
Surya Chandrasekaran coming from north Scotland to playing in a tournament in Barcelona last week I can tell you those warm sunny afternoons are a killer
@@calhal44 yup I know it. 30 celcius and footballing is way worse, then cold rainy weather...
What about 36 degree celsius in india....we all play at this temperature here...that s why we are all black...

What a fantastic title
Yup

I somehow lost my password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.
@Amir Dariel instablaster :)
Was never a big fan of Crouch, but I sure am now. Respect this guys honesty. Rare nowadays. Get him on TV more often. He should be a regular pundit.
How weren't you a fan of a 6'7 stickman being a high level pro athlete always loved crouchy
He still plays so doubt he could be a pundit
He's on a new show on amazon prime called back of the net, its pretty decent
@@11Skill he's a pundit now ahah
evan williams Cassius Clay was his slave name, his name is Muhammad Ali and he would absolutely destroy Tyson Fury.. but anyways this is a football comments section not a boxing comments section.
"There's something very British about it"
"Yeah like the Blitz"
Crouch would beat Barca alone obviously.
I'm not going to like I'll just leave it at 69

You should upload the full videos of these podcasts. They are fantastic.
Agreed
Thatâs how you lose your entire podcast audience by making the whole podcast a free-to-watch CZcams video
If you don't live in the UK, you can catch them on BeyondPod and (I imagine) most other podcast apps.
@@cr5678 why would they lose their audience if they gave the audience another way to consume the podcast? No-one is going to stop listening if they also upload them to CZcams.
Manu Leach a podcast is much more difficult to listen to since itâs live and on another platform, meaning you have to be there at a specific time when they go live. Watching it on CZcams is infinitely easier (as with TV shows), so if the entire thing was available on CZcams as a video, who would want to listen live just as an audio podcast? Nobody. But podcasts can generate more money from sponsors than CZcams ads, so itâs more beneficial for them to do it that way.
Uploading your entire content to a platform thatâs infinitely better for the viewer will just result in every viewer going there, thus resulting in nobody listening live and thus no revenue. Basic economics of this.
Itâs entirely the same as asking âwhy donât you just upload your entire TV show to CZcams instead of short clipsâ - because much less people would watch live then since thereâs no benefit to doing so
Pretty sure Gomes did cry. He collided with his own player, Corluka and knocked him out cold. He was totally distressed. Kolo Toure was the worst at trying to defend the Delap throws. I think it was Rebrov who said he wanted to come off at Stoke after 15 minutes as couldn't handle it
You say that but the closest thing to Stoke City in La Liga is Atletico Madrid. Especially a couple of years ago, dogged, rough, 10 men behind the ball, working as a unit, horrible to play against, hostile away Atmosphere in Madrid, Barcelona didnât have many problems. Great teams, great football, along with great players find a way, wether itâs playing them at their own game or sitting behind the ball with ten men, theyâll always find a way to hurt you.
J's Supreme Stoke and athletico đ€Ł
Lee LFC nowadays it sounds like a joke I give you that but 5-6 years ago they played a similar way.
Atletico donât play long balls, theyâre actually try to close off spaces, Stoke donât, i miss the old Stoke in the Premier League though, donât know why they changed their style
Mate Iâm a Stokie but that is pure nonsense đ

Long time Stoke fan here. Little historical footnote. Stoke only ever played Barcelona once. In May 1969 in a testing friendly, to prep Barca for the European Cup Winners cup final, which was held one week after the Stoke game. Stoke were on their way back from an end of season jolly in Las Palmas, so may have been somewhat "relaxed" and several of the first team squad injured, left behind in the UK. It was a well fought game. At one point Stoke were three nil up. Half time was 1-3. Stoke edged the game out with the final score being 2-3. Barca also lost the cup final by the same 2-3 scoreline. They were defeated by Sovan Bratislava of Czechoslovakia, who had also beaten the mighty Athletico Dunfermline en roĂ»te to the final. This was under the Stoke managership of a very different Tony. Tony Waddington. Also I believe it was a Thursday night in a very warm Nou Camp. The Barca fans clapped Stoke off the pitch at the end of the game. Old school football. đđ
Can stoke do it on a cold, wet, Tuesday night in stoke?
Not at the moment đ
They play on Wednesdays

@Colloquial Soliloquy yesss you watch killerkarrit
@Colloquial Soliloquy yep all of those are great, annoying caller is the best
Crouchey giving the cb grief made my weekđđ
Love the backtracking from Gomes "crying" to being a bit angry.
He was actually crying..there's pictures of it on google and videos on here of the actual moment he burst into tears.
@@andrewn5789 and apparently it was due to the pain of a fractured rib not the bullshit said in that podcast czcams.com/video/iOD61tsF5Ro/video.html
I was at that game and if he wasn't crying he was doing a good impression. I remember there was about 11 minutes added on for injury time, partly for when he was injured, partly to give them chance to equaliseđ. Don't know if he did actually break a rib, but he definitely was not up for the game from the start.
Let crouchy talk ffs
Luke Dunford Spot on fella
Maximilian-UK_Army yo baz what you at
it's a conversational podcast, not an interview. they're mates and they behave like it
That Chris fella is constantly interrupting every time , so annoying
Did I just got clickbaited?
"Neutralize them, it's like throwing white wine on a red wine spill." Classic football talk.
Messi donât need gaps Crouchy he would rinse your whole team
Coward?? But still the best in the world so stfu
Seeing the way Barca played against Bayern, Stoke definitely could give them a hard time regardless of the scoreline.
I came here after reading those comments on 433 posts
Is he still Marc Roberts back pocket đ
The problem with Premier League is the environment is not friendly to players. Many players with great career in the continent flopped when they arrive in the UK. The weather is bad, Christmas games are tough, no break for Champions League, 3 tournaments going on at once. Most importantly, the focus on physical football: more running, rougher defenders and lenient referee broke many stars. Not many could adapt to this foreign world of football, especially at an older age. Of course, that doesn't mean anything when it comes to the Champions League.
love the title, but yes, yes they could.
Messi is coming to EPL to haunt Stoke City
I'm a Wolves fan and I remember people saying the same about our Portuguese players, the answer?? Yes they can play over here on cold winter nights, as has been proven, seriously though, they would rip Stoke apart, even if it was -5! Lol đđ
"did you tell the ref" hahahahaaa
Before he mentioned arsenal that was the first team I thought of with the long Rory delap throw
Whoâs here after they got battered by Bayernđ€·đœââïžđ
As a Barca fan, have to admit, we canât do it on a cold rainy night in Stoke
@@ayaankhan2717 lol , you are a dumba*s then, we were talking about prime barcelona. If Valencia could beat stoke in europa league final in 2012 and that too on a cold rainy night , then it'll be a walk in the park for barca.
@@ayaankhan2717 you are not a barca fan , you probably just watched some clips of messi and started liking barca , I bet you don't even know it's history or a famous line which is associated to express love for this club , you are an internet dang so get the fu*k out of here.
Not even a big football fan. But thsese inveriews are amazing.
You must be gay
Love to see messi and the boys put 10 on stoke.
El capitan Puyol had the strength of whole of the Stoke City back in the day!đ€
The John Pantsil anecdote. :D
Wish he had a show on talksport
i once asked a girl out with this:
Could I take you on a cold,wet Tuesday night out...She filed a restraining order at me
Obviously recorded before Liverpool smashed Barca 4-0
Adam Green after Barcelona smashed them 3-0. Funny how you seem to leave that bit out
Funny how liverpool fucked barcas asses and then cruised through tottenham to win the ucl
@@laminceesay4345 that's irrelevant cos they ended up losing. Psg beat barca 2-0 and nobidy gives a fuck cos they lost the second leg. Ajax beat spurs but nobody cares cos they lost the second leg.
@@mxchael_0385 4-0 not 2-0
@@omarxwf9412 oops
how come they cut out some of these bits
Couldnât do it on a warm night in Lisbon
Crouchy does make a good point. I'd play them at cricket or maybe Rugby Union. Basketball should be an easier win as well.
Good vid
The protoplan for Barcelona at Anfield 2019.
Will it blend, that is the question.
That red against real make sence now.
He is right tho, La Liga is easy and clean football, you need to have strenght and stamina in EPL
Pulis-prime Stoke would definitely have given Barca a game.
Those 2008-2013 seasons top PL team were lucky to take a point.
Lol fuck off with your shit.
Maxi never went to the brit back in the day !
@@Scallion_D Don't disrespect Batman like that
Valencia beat Stoke under Pulis at the Britannia in 2012 without any bother.
End of discussion.
mate it's a fucking joke what is wrong with you
@@danny9556 Who's joking? This bollocks statement goes back years.
Wasn't on a Tuesday though
Jack Tanner true that đ
@64Fabby Nah. They would and were garbage vs any half decent European side.
The best podcast out there.
No
Sky should sign Peter crouch legend
Haha old Kevin would love that. He was brutal. Aussie International football is based on that bloke. Play hard play rough
In throwin Off side offence is not there.. At that Prime Rory Delap, Stoke are scary in the throwin even scarier than Corner kick...
I get what heâs saying, but I think youâd have to be a better team than Pulisâ Stoke to do it. Maybe Athletico Madrid or Chelsea with Costa in.
As a stoke fan he is a legend
No recommendation for Kevin Muscatđ„Ž Wtf, CZcams!
He's kind of right. Atleti was probably the only 'dirty' team in La Liga during the best of Simeone and they gave Barca a decent game sometimes
Gomez was distraught that day. Corluka knocked him out didn't he? I can remember a Spurs player saying he wanted to be substituted that day as the whole atmopsphere was too much
Another question: Will American soccer players could also be able to handle pressure in rainy Stoke in the middle of the night with Party Rock Anthem song by LMFAO playing on the bet365 stadium?
Ive seen some shit on CZcams, but Peter Crouch saying stoke would've given Barcelona a game is right up there lads. Well done
Didn't even give Valencia a game, how the fuck would they have fared vs Barca. What shit.
Better teams have tried, stoke would be destroyed, Barca is good because they move the ball and make teams chase, City is doing the same in the EPL
Got a couple minute in and, thatâs enough... waffling!
Tbf Pantsil was one of the worst footballers I have ever seen in my life.
We was a right back not a centre back like said here. Was a bit of a cult hero at West ham. From the day we misspelt his name on his regestration to the league
Stoke at home back under pulis, different kind of beast.
Lol.
Not on cold wet tuesday night in merseyside
Merseyside is a sea side mine location, nothing more. Shit hole not scary.
Heâs right Chelsea did it and it worked
Crouchey ! A living legend â
Wow I dont think anyone has ever thought of these tactics to play barça Iâm shocked Steven merchant err I mean crouch is a genius
Lol tbf when stoke were under Pulis particularly 11/12 theres never been a team like them regarding set pieces and style of play. They were soooooo good at being 'anti-football'. Certainly the best since early 90's in england, not sure any team in la liga have been the same
Thought this was Monreal from the thumbnail
Imagine not knowing Peter Crouch
Iâm pretty sure crouch wasnât at stoke when we made gomes cry
Gomes did cry. He fell to bits. Bizarre to watch.
COYMP
Interviewer never heard of Paul Gascoigne?
Good wind up for the barca fan boys crouchy ;)
Surely he canât actually believe stoke would have gave Barca a game
A friendly can always happen mate
But La Liga does have their own version of Stoke and I'm not talking about Atletico. Athletic Bilbao are the most "english" of teams. Aritz Aduriz is their physical striker, they love set pieces and high balls. They kick Messi and foul him and they still don't win. Pepe, Ramos, Alonso, Arbeloa have all tried to kick, stamp and elbow Messi, but he gets up and scores again and again. Messi has literally had bleeding lips and black eyes and still destroyed opponents.
There was a period where Madrid and Jose Mourinho tried to be the rough thugs and they repeatedly finished the match with 10 men.
let's face it, Stoke would try their hardest and make life hard for Barcelona, but they would probably have 30% possession, only 3 chances on goal and probably lose 3-1.
*Its going to happen BOYS. Now we are living in a historical moment*
Stoke were a strong team under Pulis
Let the man speak
He's right! Am an Arsenal fan!! Stoke City scared the shit outta me. I hated them so much!!! LOL
How is this even still a question. Far better teams in La Liga than Stoke ever were. Man City ran riot - Barca would kill it that people would say itâs not fair.
He's not saying "oh look at us we were top quality we'd have done what United couldn't and beaten Barcelona at Wembley". He was saying that back in the Pulis days the type of 11 men behind the ball anti-football that they played would have been incredibly frustrating for a team like Barcelona who were used to teams trying to play them at their own game, and they might have gotten a point out of it. Top 6 teams regularly dropped points at Stoke, including City, dunno how Hughes' away result last year has any bearing on the conversation.
Mark nobody is denying it wouldn't be frustrating, but it's no difference to the way teams play against city now, and they deal with that just fine. Anybody suggesting that Barcelona would struggle in the PL is in denial and a victim of the media machine.
@@Wahlrusberg Pulis' Stoke were dreadful vs Valencia at the Britannia.
Mark though if you actually watch la liga you can see a lot of teams are physical and do try to kick Barca and Messi off the park, just they fail most of the time.
The pitch would turn into a swimming pool with all the diving and I can imagine 2 red cards and 1 or 2 penalties đ€ unless you are Bayern
I told my dad afterwards..đđ
Pantsil was a RB and was class đđ
Was just commenting the same he was a rb at West ham was a cult hero we even got his name wrong on his regeneration lol
Multiple UCL/La Liga/Copa Del Rey winners spearhead by the đ that consistently dominated the top four of the Prem when they played in Europe......would struggle against mid table Stoke that included Rory Delap, crouchy and Ricardo fuller ......Kay den
Did you actually bother to listen to what he said or are you just that ignorant you just commented after seeing the title?
@@Sebastian-lz8pu I listened to him. I can still say it's nonsense. Barca deal with this tactic every single week now. They occasionally draw. They VERY occasionally lose. It's certainly not some kind of guarded secret that nobody knows about.
And back in the day, at the height of their powers with Iniesta and Xavi in their prime, there's no fking way that STOKE would have presented a problem for them.
These pro players and former pro players have huge egos. They have to to get where they got in their careers. It doesn't make their ridiculous claims true, though.
@@agreen182
Mate, it's the traditional English way of playing, defence before attack. Big Spanish teams will never face that type of team because the Spanish have huge egos and think they're a;; the next Ronaldo. The lower level English teams are gritty and make it hard to get beat. You can spout all you want about these players, but in reality they never had to face, Burnley then Stoke week in week out. You can say, 'but they beat English teams.' Well the English teams they played were the top 6 English teams who all try to play good football who were just a level below back then. Now, the English teams like Liverpool and City are on that top level but that's not the point. By facing the top 6 English teams they weren't getting a real taste of traditional English football. And yes I don't think Messi could deal with it if he got pushed about.
Suburb Iâm done talking to you. Youâve never seen a Spanish league game, that much is obvious. AtlĂ©tico plays the EXACT STYLE YOURE TALKING ABOUT. And they have 100x more skill at doing so than any pissant English team could hope for.
The egos of the English football fan are hilarious. Your country sucks when it has to play internationally. Why is that, if all your teams are secretly tougher than the international giants? They should be winning the Europa league every year!
What a delusion. Cling to your fantasy, nobody cares. Hope your side avoided relegation this year.
agreen182 well considering what happens yesterday at Anfield Iâd say you owe somebody an apology.
Charlie Adam gave it a shot at beating Muscat for dirty play.

Hard to believe a footballer would cry because of a game? Jordi Alba anfield highlights HD
Lol Crouchy talking about the rugby approach like it's some sort of tactical genius. Lets be honest Stoke played like that because that's the only way they could score
deni sherlock then started saying he was sad when stoke actually played good footballđ
Is it not tactical genius to find a way to win consistently against bigger teams?
@Redi Beaux you can't be serious... comparing sophisticated modern style football to an 18th century football where you just whip the ball to the penalty box and hope for the best
It's not even comparable
I wouldnt really compare it to that. I remember reading how the british brought polo to argentina and after 10 years the gauchos started beating the british cuz they used their own breed of horses and were naturally better riders. Sometimes i wonder if that happened when cruyff brought his ideas in or when football got to brazil
Well, they couldn't do it on a warm Tuesday in Liverpool, that's for sure.
It goes around I guess.. Liverpool weren't able to do anything for decades but their revival really shows where ambition and proper management of a club can take you...
I hope we play Liverpool again when we are on an upward trajectory..
Perhaps give messi a kick or two!! xD Like he's never gotten that in his entire career? They forget how dirty barca can be while playing as well, you can sit back and play anti football all you like, with players of that quality, all they'd need is 1 chance and they will pull you apart. Then the oweness will be on you to score and they will tear you apart even further.
Pulis football is dreadful. Just look at Boro currently.
Terrible football yes however they're 3rd

Could stoke do it at camp nou
Stoke City wouldn't want against barca at not camp because they know that barca would getting 5-0 or 10-0
Nah but they could easily get a draw at camp nou and shithouse a 1-0 win at Stoke to get them through in the case of knockouts.
TheSm1thers lmao
absolute rubbish, the only effect kicking Messi ever has is gets him angry and he doesn't take it out on you he takes it out on your team and destroys you, see Real Madrid. La liga teams park the bus against Barca and still lose, Stoke would be pinned and pressed so hard they wouldn't get out their own half, id say Barca win 4-0
S Messi is good against all teams. All the best players in the world say he is a nightmare to play against.
S How does Messi become a ghost in big games? Top El Clasico scorer, fastest to 100 goals in the UCL. His favourite teams to score against are Real Madrid, Sevilla, Atletico Madrid and Arsenal statistically speaking.
No Messi wasnât quiet in the Iceland game, I wonder if you actually watched it.
Yeah, look what happened when Andoni Goikoetxea "the Butcher from Bilbao" fauled (as in assaulted) Maradona 24 September 1983. Look that up and ask yourself what had happened to Messi if he been treated that way.
Oscar Svensson
Bilbao was actually decent compared to Stoke City and The butcher of Bilbao was legit trying to Injure Maradona. Messi has gotten kicked regularly in every game he has played in for a decade. Barcelona have played against teams that sit back with 10 men and play physical before. and so many of them had far better players as well. It's not a new way of playing against Barcelona. oh play 10 men and play physical and score from set prices. EASY. Messi and Suarez won't pass our defense of average defenders.
Barca did it today in a rainy cold night in Vigođđ
