'Amazing!' - Peter Crouch and Steven Gerrard react after LFC Legends' win v Chelsea

**On a fairy-tale legends debut...**

**Crouch:** I can say it's quite emotional really because I never thought I'd come back here in any capacity as a player. So to play in the game was, first and foremost, amazing and great for the Foundation. But to score a couple of goals in front of my family and friends was amazing.

**On Crouch being invited back...**

**Gerrard:** We were trying to get him the third! Everyone was running out of energy, getting tired, but he changed the game. I think we played well throughout the game but we just needed a little bit of magic, a bit of inspiration from the side. The big man came on and provided it.

**On performing the robot celebration...**

**Crouch:** So many kids on the way here were like, 'Can you do the robot?' I'd rather have not, to be honest, but it was for the kids.

**On how special it was to be playing in front of his children...**

**Crouch:** It really is. To play with the likes of Stevie again is fantastic. My little boy has never seen me kick a football and I think he thought I was lying about it! Great day and great for the Foundation.

**On returning to Anfield again...**

**Gerrard:** I think all eyes are on the run-in, we've got a massive game coming up against Everton. But during the international break when you get the invite to come and play in front of a full house, it's impossible to turn it down. As Peter said, the priority is always the Foundation, raising large sums of money to support the area, to support the ex-players in need. But it can't be done without the supporters. They're coming here, paying money and it's a full house, it's unbelievable. It wouldn't happen at any other club. Crouchy is the hero today but the main heroes are the supporters – always.
