Southampton chairman Rupert Lowe praised Peter Crouch for his professionalism during his move to Liverpool, and said that they had to sell him this summer. Lowe said that the towering marksman was initially ready to remain at St Mary's and help Harry Redknapp's fight for an immediate return to The Premiership.
However, once Liverpool's interest was confirmed, Crouch could not resist the lure of Anfield, but went about his move in the right way.
"Under normal circumstances, I think he was certainly up for the fight of getting us promoted, but once Liverpool came in, I think he found it very hard give up the allure of Champions League football and playing for a club that he sees as a substantially bigger club than us."
