Huth: We're now seeing best of Crespo
|
Germany defender Robert Huth says the World Cup has brought the best out of Chelsea teammate Hernan Crespo.
Ahead of their quarterfinal clash with Argentina, Huth said: "I know all about Crespo and he is one of the best goalscorers in world football.
"It seems to me he has been transformed since he joined up with the Argentina squad.
"He has been really lifted by playing in a team which is producing such great football.
"We never doubted his qualities at Chelsea but this tournament is bringing out the best in him. Crespo is going to be a very tough opponent for us, a real physical threat.
"But the Argentine side is full of great players and they have played probably the best football of the tournament so far. Every game Germany play, the crowd really lifts the team. We know the whole nation is totally united behind us now and that means we are not afraid of any opponent."
