Tottenham striker Crouch: England players learn selection thanks to Michelle at FA

Tottenham striker Peter Crouch says he'll know if he's been included in England's squad thanks to a text from Michelle at the FA!

Crouch admits the process is "odd".

He told Absolute Radio: "It's an odd one, mate, yeah, it's a text, yeah.

"You get a text, right, you get a text just letting you know that you're in the squad.

"Michelle at the FA, Michelle at the FA always texts us, yeah."
