Crespo calling

Law and Best, Keegan and Toshack, Ardiles and Villa, some of the famous double acts to have graced English soccer, could be followed by Veron and Crespo.
Chelsea manager Claudio Ranieri hopes that by linking Hernan Crespo with fellow Argentine Juan Sebastian Veron he can bring untold success to his big-spending London club.
It was suggested to Crespo at his official media presentation on Friday that he and Veron might be able to emulate compatriots Osvaldo Ardiles and Ricardo Villa, the first big imports 25 years ago who inspired Tottenham Hotspur to FA Cup victory.
"Why not start to deflect attention from Spanish and Italian football to English football. That's also a challenge," Crespo said by way of an answer.
But first, Crespo said, a good start to an exciting new phase in his life would be to break the stranglehold of champions Manchester United and FA Cup winners Arsenal on the English game.
"Our intention is to break that domination and fight with them for those titles," Crespo said, adding as an after-thought: "Divide them."
Crespo, Argentina's first choice striker since the retirement after last year's World Cup of Gabriel Batistuta, said he wanted to help Chelsea make history.
"It's a team that is being born and I want to help them to win it," said Crespo, who won league titles in Argentina with River Plate but missed out in Italy although he and Veron helped Parma win the UEFA Cup in 1999.
"It's a challenge because there is everything here to be won, there's a history that can be written.
"If we can achieve a unity (among the players) we can go a long way. The Chelsea players are very competitive, it will be easy to play with them."
Crespo said playing with Veron "is simple". Both are 28 and have often played together in their careers.
"We've played together in the national team, at Parma and Lazio and in all of them we had the chance to be winners, I hope this won't be the exception."
After the furore of England captain David Buckram's move to Real Madrid, the world's gaze has been deflected towards London by Chelsea's near 100 million pound expenditure on players since being bought by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich.
"The world in general was very surprised by what's happened at Chelsea. The contribution of an entrepreneur to the world of football is very important," Crespo said.
Also instrumental in his own 16.8 million-pound transfer was Ranieri's keenness to bring him to London and the decision was easy to take.
"No time at all, because the two clubs had come to an agreement and there was Ranieri's great interest," Crespo said.
"I had also spoken to Veron who told me about the (club's) hopes. There wasn't much left for me to decide."
He added that the economic crisis in the Italian game had also helped.
Crespo, who named Gary Lineker as his favourite English striker and Dutchman Marco van Basten as the best ever, believes he will settle in well at Chelsea and in London.
"It's a big challenge not only in football terms but also socially," he said. "I'm a very positive person, optimistic, and I'm confident things will go well.
"I can see myself doing well, I hope to fulfil the expectations that have been created. I'm sure, confident of adapting."
Asked how he would cope with the rigours of the Premier League, Crespo said: "After a couple of games I'll be able to answer that question. It's a help having an Italian coach who did so much for me to be here.”
