"It is a crazy league and it feels like anyone can beat anyone at the moment," Crouch, who has teamed up with McDonald's to host Peter's Fun Football session for children in half-term, told the PA news agency.

"I would say City and Liverpool aren't as strong as they were and other teams have got stronger.

"It is definitely something to do with fans not being in the ground, which is causing some strange results and lots of goals. The league is up for grabs.

"Can Tottenham win it? I'm not sure but I think they've got as good a chance as anyone. City and Liverpool have to be the favourites just because they've been the strongest team over the last three years.

"People have criticised Mourinho a lot. He seems to be getting a team together and building something again and you wouldn't put it past him to win (something).

"Maybe the league is potentially too much for them, but for Tottenham fans, bringing the FA Cup home right now would be magical."

Much of what Tottenham can do this season will depend on whether Harry Kane can continue his remarkable start to the season.

The England captain has scored five goals, but more impressively has created eight goals as his game from being a traditional number nine has evolved.

Crouch is in awe of the player he saw coming through the ranks at the London club.

"There is no limit to what this boy can do," Crouch added. "I played with him when he was a young kid at Tottenham and I was in the first team and he has always scored goals and he has always been a finisher.

"He scores every type of goal but when I look at him dropping deep and making those passes, it's just fantastic to watch and he's become a creator for Son and it's mouth-watering when you add (Gareth) Bale in there as well.

"The runs they make are so quick and Kane's ability to find them is just amazing. He drops deep into the pockets and pick out passes. He is Tottenham's best goalscorer and also their best creator."

Spurs are already top scorers in the Premier League so far, with Gareth Bale still to come into their side as he builds his fitness up following a disjointed pre-season.

"He needs to get up to speed, but he is a world-class player," said Crouch, who played with Bale in his first spell at Tottenham.

"He was electric at Real Madrid, absolutely unbelievable. If we get half the player we are still going to get a very impressive player and a huge bonus for Tottenham.

"If a player of that calibre feels wanted and he's happy around the training ground then you are going to get a top player."
