But during his time at the club he has admitted there was one unnamed individual who created a misleading picture of his training routine.

Crouch claims this infuriated him as fans were calling for the player in question to be given game time, but the supporters were unaware he was not putting in the work outside of his social media videos.

Speaking on That Peter Crouch Podcast, he said: “There was one player at Stoke that was catfishing and it really annoyed me.

“He was on social media doing his stuff with his personal trainer outside the training ground.

“What he was like in the training ground, which we saw first hand, was not the person that we saw getting portrayed.

“What annoyed me is that fans were falling for it. They were saying ‘Why is he not playing? He should be playing ahead of him’.

“And the players they were saying he should be playing ahead of were working hard, were putting the work in and were doing alright for the team.
