Liverpool great, Robbie Fowler edged around 100 other candidates to become the new coach of Australian A-League strugglers, Brisbane Roar .
The 44-year-old former England striker penned a two-year deal in his first significant job since hanging up his boots.
The former Liverpool midfielder took the position left vacant when ex-Socceroos striker John Aloisi quit in late December.
While reacting to his new appointment,Fowler dismissed concerns he lacked experience after he was appointed new on Tuesday.
“I’m really looking forward to the challenge and am determined to bring success to a club that has such a proud history in the A-League,” he said in a statement. I’m really keen to get started and make a difference.”
Fowler was briefly player-coach of Thai club Muangthong United, and has worked extensively at Liverpool’s academy, but other than that has no other senior coaching experience.
