QPR manager Harry Redknapp is lining up another reunion with striker Peter Crouch, 32. Crouch has played for Redknapp at Portsmouth twice, Southampton and Spurs, with Redknapp keen to bring him to former club QPR from Stoke.

What’s the story? Erm…Crouch cost Stoke £8m two years ago and now is OK with dropping in to the Championship? Well, maybe.
Does it make sense? He’d be able to dominate in the Championship and it depends how Mark Hughes sees himself using him. The only thing that could see him end up at QPR is if Hughes doesn’t want him and no other Premier League clubs do. And there aren’t many that will.
Is the price right? Can’t be more than £3/4m given his age.
Will it happen? 6/10 – He’s played for the club before and it would mean he could move back to London. More importantly, if Hughes doesn’t want him, I don’t see many Premier League clubs who will.
