Summary
On this week’s episode of the Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Chris dive head-first into the biggest football flashpoint of the weekend — Mohamed Salah’s explosive post-match comments.
The lads break down exactly what he said, what he meant, and why this moment could signal a major turning point in his relationship with Liverpool. From dressing-room dynamics to how senior players should handle being benched.
The boys also react to the World Cup 2026 group draw, sharing their early predictions, fears, and inevitable chaos ahead of the tournament.
There’s also an emotional fan-gift reveal, nostalgic tales of Jose Enrique’s shoes, surprise cameos from a dubiously named road, and a proper Premier League roundup including Arsenal-Villa madness, Chelsea-Everton history, Palace-City patterns, and more.
What do you make of Salah’s interview? And how are we feeling about England’s route to 2026?

| 0:19.4 | Hello and welcome to that Peter Crouch podcast with me, Peter Crouch, and Notorious This ID and Chris Stark. Everyone, everyone okay? Good. Yeah. If I'm honest, at the time of recording, I'm a little bit shattered, busy weekend. I was hosting the jingle bell ball that we do with, the Capital. It was a lot of fun. I saw you there, Crouchy. I was there, yeah. Yeah, I had a really nice time. Kids loved it. I gave you a little wave at one point. Sid's I looked over and I could see him in the crowd. And I'm only ever used to seeing Crouchy with a pint. Yeah. And he's there with a little... I was like, what's that? What's that he's drinking? And he's his little hand going in and out... He's got a little cup of pick-a-mix. Love it. If you can enjoy it, enjoy it properly. If you're going to do it by being disciplined. I was disciplined. I was disciplined. I was slightly hung over from night four. Were you? Yeah, hence the picker mix. Yeah. Did you enjoy it? I had a lovely time, really nice, yeah. And the kids loved it. They always do. Ed Sheeran said he'd caught up with you as well. Yeah, yeah. Well, Lab knows his manager's wife really well. So we, you know, we've met a good few times. |
| 1:28.5 | So we ended up in his dress room. |
| 1:30.3 | Yeah, nice. Which was nice. Good to see him. Didn't come visit me, did you? But, but there we go. No, no, no. I did see you, though. I did see you. I don't know, you're too busy. I was going to say, is it full on for you? like even like when the axe are on |
| 1:42.9 | is it still a case of what you need to be |
| 1:44.3 | at this position and you're like |
| 1:45.7 | someone clots in your ear |
| 1:46.9 | or you do all the interviews sort of I'm going to say, is it full on for you? Like, even like when the axe are on, is it still a case of what you need to be at this position |
| 1:45.0 | and you're like, as someone comes in your ear? |
| 1:46.9 | Yeah, what you do? |
| 1:47.1 | You do all the interviews sort of backstage as well. There's a lot kind of going on there and occasionally come out and introduce whoever's next. But what was Ed saying? No, he was good, mate. Yeah, he's actually been to the game that day, I think, |
| 1:59.6 | because he saw Frank Mampard |
| 2:01.2 | because he was commentary around mate. Yeah, he's actually been to the game that day, I think, because he saw Frank Mampard, because he was Coventry manager, yeah. And Ipswich won. They did, yeah. So, yeah, that was, that's what you said. Yeah, it was a couple of funky results. There's Coventry had been flying in the championship recently as well. Do you know, there's a really good energy there as well. I saw a great video of the enemy performing. I don't know. |
| 2:20.1 | Live and die in these towns is one of my all-time favorites. It's a great album and obviously it's a great song. And I think when your team's flying as well and suddenly that the song fires up and you've got a bit of an anthem to rally around. It feels, feels exciting.
