I'll show critics the 'real Robbie Fowler'

Robbie Fowler is ready to give Leeds United an instant return on their investment and make former club Liverpool regret the striker's departure.

The England international, who joined Leeds for more than 11 million pounds ($15.69 million) this week, is expected to make his debut when Leeds travel to Fulham in the English premier league on Sunday (1400 GMT).

If league leaders Liverpool lose against struggling Derby County on Saturday, Fowler could help propel his new club to the top of the table with victory at Craven Cottage.

Robbie Fowler Fowler has been plagued by injury and controversy for the last two seasons, but he is determined to rise again.

Marcus Bent, who signed from Blackburn Rovers last week, is set for his home debut for Ipswich, who have won just one league game this season.

An intriguing clash at Old Trafford on Saturday sees Chelsea take on sixth-placed Manchester United (1200 GMT), with United looking to put an abysmal run of form behind them.

France international Fabien Barthez, who blundered twice at Highbury to hand Arsenal victory last Sunday, could get the nod in goal again from manager Alex Ferguson.
