5 Tall Footballers Who Played in the Premier League

#3 Peter Crouch

Peter Crouch is one of the tallest strikers in the league

At 37, Peter Crouch is still effective in set pieces and maintaining possession for his team. He holds the record for the most headed goals in English football with 52. This is largely due to his 6 ft 7 (2.01m) height which makes him stand a head above the rest - literally!

Crouch also has long legs which he has previously put to good use. This was seen in 2007 when England faced Croatia in a European Championship qualifier at Wembley Stadium.

The Three Lions were trailing 2-1 when he chested down David Beckham's cross from the right wing before stretching his right leg to score.
