Crouch set to miss England games
Peter Crouch receives treatment for his head injury
Crouch suffered the injury in the game against Sheff Utd
Striker Peter Crouch is set to be out for up to four weeks after deciding to undergo surgery on his broken nose.

Crouch suffered the injury against Sheffield United on 24 February and is likely to be out of England's Euro 2008 qualifiers against Israel and Andorra.

England play Israel on 24 March before facing Andorra four days later.

"If it's affecting my performances I know I'm going to have to get it over and done with," Crouch told the Liverpool website.

Crouch should be available to his club when they resume their Champions League campaign with a game at PSV Eindhoven on 3 April.

He added: "The doctor has said that after getting it done I'll be out for three to four weeks.

"That would be really frustrating because at this stage of the season I really don't want to miss any games."
