Will This be a Week of Milestones for Crouch and Rooney?
Peter Crouch has had a good couple of weeks recently, having scored in his last two games against Chelsea and Watford for Stoke and the 35-year old recently signed a one-year extension with the Potters as well.
Crouch is just two goals away from a century of Premier League goals that will see him join an elite club featuring the likes of Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry etc., and with Sunderland the next opponents for Mark Hughes’ side, the milestone could very well be achieved on Saturday.
While there is no shortage of excitement ahead of a clash between Manchester United and Liverpool, there will be an added element of anticipation and exhilaration ahead of the Sunday’s fixture as Wayne Rooney looks to go past Sir Bobby Charlton to become the leading goalscorer for United.
The United and England captain equalled the legendary Sir Charlton’s 249 goals, scoring against Reading in the FA Cup last weekend and would love it more than anything else, to make history against Liverpool, given his Evertonian roots and the intensity of the rivalry between United and Liverpool.
