Summary

To Liverpool fans he was 'God', but Robbie Fowler has never told his full story - until now. 

In Robbie Fowler: My Life in Football, Robbie takes us on a journey through the games that have shaped his career and thinking about football, from Hillsborough to Istanbul, via the cup treble, that celebration, all those goals, Houllier, Benitiez, Klopp and the rest. 

Personal and revealing, Robbie's stories come from a life spent inside the game. He invites us inside the dressing room, sharing stories of legendary teammates like Rush, Owen and Gerrard, his love of the Kop, his greatest achievements and his biggest regrets - as well as the money, fame and hoopla that surround the modern game. 

Discussing frankly his rise to football's top table, his struggles with injuries and retirement, as well as his feelings about the modern game, Robbie Fowler: My Life in Football harks back to a simpler time when fans and players shared the same story, and when the local boy really could dream of scoring a hat-trick for his home club when Saturday came.

God

Story was amazing, a great insight to the Legend. Massive downfall was the Narrator! Sounded like Micheal Owen with the worst blag scouse accent ever! Ruined the book for me if I'm honest

They say that you should never meet your heroes

.....maybe the same goes for listening to their autobiography. This was a great player coming across as boastful and arrogant, A man wallowing in his own importance and apparently resentful of others success. I wish I had not read it and that my memories of such a great great striker were reserved for the absolute pleasure he gave me and thousands of others every saturday on the pitch.

A poor man's Wikipedia page

Little to no insight into anything a Liverpool, or even a fan of 90s and 00s football, wouldn't already know. Save yourself time and just read his Wikipedia page.

Poor narrator who lacked any football knowledge - pronounced Barca; Barcka although the his attempt at Coutinho gave me the biggest chuckle of the book.

If you’ve watched him play you know what the book is about.

Sorry but Christ this is boring. Was expecting something that I’d never heard before and some interesting stories. How wrong I was. Boring. Save yourself some time and check his Wikipedia page

Horrendous narration

Narrator clearly never watched a football match, how can you not pronounce the names of world famous players?

Not only that he’s hard work to listen to.

Struggled to stick with it

The fan as well as the player

Wonderful to know Robbie shared those same emotions that we mere fans go through. Good to hear the back stories that explained so much over the years. Only improvement would be for it to be read by Robbie himself though the narrator was very good.
