Peter explained: “On signing for Liverpool I stayed at the Hope Street Hotel.

On reception was a girl so good-looking I couldn’t quite believe she was smiling at me all the time.

“I told the lads in training, ‘honestly, she’s beautiful, I think I’ve got a shout here.’ 

“Jamie Carragher called a few other senior players over, ‘tell them again, Crouchie.’

“So I did, ‘amazing. Dark-haired. Spanish-looking. I’m in there.’ It turned out she was Xabi Alonso’s partner.

“She was doing a bit of work to practise her language skills. He was nice about it. So was she. Carra less so.”
