Cameo: Crouch against Twente[LNB]Tottenham go into the Champions League knockout stage avoiding the likes of Barcelona and Real Madrid after topping their group, but Peter Crouch insists his club should fear no one.[LNB]A 3-1 home win against holders Inter Milan has already proven Spurs' quality this season and a 3-3 draw confirmed their position above the Italians in Group A.[LNB]'We feel we can beat anybody in this competition,' said Crouch, who came on as a late sub in Enschede. [LNB]'We have proved that. We beat Inter Milan, the European champions at White Hart Lane quite convincingly and we deserved to.[LNB]'There is no one that we should be wary of at all. Having watched Barcelona the other night in their 5-0 thrashing of Jose Mourinho's Real (Madrid) maybe we should be a little cautious but we shouldn't be too frightened. We have performed very well against top opposition.[LNB]'We should go into every game as we do - trying to win.'[LNB]Spurs go into the draw for the last 16 on Friday week as one of the top eight seeds, but cannot draw another English team, meaning a tie against rivals Arsenal is out of the question should the Gunners go through in second place from Group H.[LNB]So far, their potential opponents include Lyon, Valencia, Copenhagen, Marseille, AC Milan, either Roma or Basle and possibly Shakhtar Donetsk or Braga.[LNB] Italian job: Crouch scores in Spurs' victory over Inter Milan last month[LNB] Roman Pavlyuchenko in talks to extend Tottenham contract as Peter Crouch is tipped for exitFC Twente 3 Tottenham 3: Defoe brace sees Spurs finish in pole position Spurs boss Redknapp vows to carry on attacking in Champions League Leo's London: Nasri's brilliant form mean Arsenal can stop relying on FabTOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FC
