Blackpool boss Ian Holloway thinks that Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler still has "undoubted quality".

Blackpool manager Ian Holloway has revealed that Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler is close to full fitness.

It emerged today that the former England striker is poised to make a surprise switch to Bloomfield Road on a short-term deal after training with the Tangerines this week.

"It's brilliant to have someone like Robbie at the club," Holloway said in the Blackpool Gazette. "He looked terrific in training and I don't think he's that far away from being fully fit."

Holloway told the club's official website: "Has he got some quality, can he play a pass, can he score a goal? Yes, he can. I still think he wants to play and he's got undoubted quality."

The 36-year-old is a free agent following stints in Thailand and Australia.
