http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/images4/060306_fowler_1202.jpg Rafael Benitez has made his decision on whether or not to offer Robbie Fowler (http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/team/squad/fowler/) a new contract at the end of the season. The Liverpool striker signed a six month deal in January and is desperately hoping to extend his Anfield career into next year.
With four goals to his name since his return from Manchester City, Fowler appears to have done his chances no harm at all but Benitez is refusing to reveal whether the Kop idol will still be at the club next season.
"If he can keep scoring it will be easier for me," said Benitez. "We all know he has a lot of passion for the club. I know what I want to do but I need to talk to my staff.
"We will continue working with Robbie. When a player is playing every game he cannot improve a lot in his physical condition.
"We cannot expect to see the best of him now. Perhaps in pre-season we will see him progress but we need to decide on his future first."
