Stoke striker Crouch not losing sleep over England snub

Peter Crouch is happy to focus his energies on Stoke City.

Crouch is among the contenders to replace banned Wayne Rooney in the group stage as the Three Lions bid to end their 46-year wait for a major trophy.

The Stoke striker, who has been ignored by Fabio Capello in recent months, said: "I'm quite happy going about my business at Stoke.

"It's quite nice to have 10 days' rest, but of course I would love to be involved with England.

"But if I'm not, I won't lose any sleep over it."
