Peter Crouch upbeat after Tottenham debut
Goals from Roman Pavlyuchenko, Vedran Corluka and Jermain Defoe helped Spurs continue their impressive pre-season preparations.
And the sight of Crouch, signed from Portsmouth, who played the opening 45 minutes, was a boost ahead of Sunday's opening Premier League game when Spurs face the striker's former club, Liverpool.
Crouch said: 'I got a fantastic reception from the fans and obviously I'm very thankful for that. Hopefully I can give a bit back, score goals and do well for this club and put it where it should be.
'With the squad and the ability we've got in the dressing room there are no ends to what we can achieve.'
Harry Redknapp has sold Darren Bent, to Sunderland, but Pavlyuchenko, expected to departe, has instead remained and that has given the manager four solid attacking options.
Against the Greeks Redknapp began with Crouch and Robbie Keane in attack, with the Russian and Defoe replacing them at half time.
Redknapp said: 'I'll be looking to win games and if people need a rest I've got options. They are nice options to have and that's important.
'We have four strikers and they are all top players. Jermain scored, Pav scored, Crouchy was terrific for us in the first half and we all know what Robbie's about.'
The pre-season programme has seen Spurs win six and draw one of their nine games and the Spurs manager added: "It was another step up and I was well pleased with how we played.
'I was particularly pleased with how we moved the ball around, our movement and all the strikers are looking sharp, so that's ideal for us.'
