Dan Crowley started his career at Aston Villa before moving to Arsenal at the age of 15. During his time at Arsenal, he was likened to Jack Wilshere, which added pressure to him as a young player.
However, he sees himself as an individual and his own player. “It did add pressure probably without me even realising it because obviously I was still a young kid,” he said. “But when you ask about it, you know basing my game around you know the players.
I like to see myself as an individual, and you know I’m Dan Crowley I’m my own player.”
He spent some time playing in the Netherlands with Willem Twee, which helped him grow up as a person and learn about managing his body and being effective on the field.
“Yeah really good it helped me grow up as a person. The first time I went you know I was only 19, and you know moving to a different country you know living on my own for the very first time you have to grow up straight away,” he said.
Most recently, Crowley played for Morecambe in League One, where he had a fantastic debut and scored a couple of goals. “During that time you know that the support seemed to take you quite well, a fantastic debut by all accounts, and you got a couple of goals, a few assists,” said the interviewer.
He had interest from other clubs this summer but chose to join Notts County because of the club’s style of play and its upward trajectory.
He is looking forward to playing with the other midfielders at the club and sees himself fitting into a more attacking role in midfield.
“Yeah great, they’re three really good players I know John Bostock quite well he’s a great lad, and you know top top player, so I’m just I’m looking forward to just getting in a team and playing with those guys,” he said.
Geographical reasons were also a motivation for Crowley’s move to Notts County. He is from Coventry, which is not too far away from the club. “Yeah of course every like you know little thing helps you know it makes my life easier. I’m married, and I’ve got a little boy and a little girl due in a couple of weeks. So yeah, it definitely makes my life easier,” he said.
