Tottenham striker Peter Crouch has urged his team-mates to bounce back from their Wembley disappointment when they face Arsenal on Wednesday.[LNB] Spurs were defeated by Portsmouth in the FA Cup semi-final and they are also four points behind Manchester City in the race for the final Champions League place.[LNB]"I was absolutely gutted to lose, but we have to pick ourselves up because we don't want our season to just fritter away," Crouch said.[LNB]"We have to make sure we're at it for the rest of the season to try to get that fourth spot and we need to get up for it against Arsenal.[LNB]"It was an extremely disappointed dressing room at Wembley because we knew we had a good chance to get to the final.[LNB]"But we're professional people and we have to make sure we put it behind us and get up for Arsenal."[LNB]Crouch feels he was denied a legitimate goal against Pompey when Niko Kranjcar was penalised for a foul on Pompey goalkeeper David James.[LNB]"You could even see Jamo's face on the telly after the incident," Crouch said.[LNB]"He was laughing and that tells you the whole story. He knew it wasn't a foul."
