The challenge, as is the case with many ethereal shape-shifters who require freedom to make their magic, will be how to get the best out of the 21-year-old.
Mary Fowler spent the early part of her Manchester City career napping. Not caught napping in a took-her-eye-off-the-ball sort of way, but literally eyes closed and head on the pillow. Fowler, who had moved from the southern France sunshine of Montpellier, took a little while to acclimatise to the northern England climate.
Of course there are other factors at play beyond the decision to either sleep or not sleep, not least the process of carving out her place in a stacked side thatEven after the World Cup that made her so famous she was immortalised as Barbie, she continued the “two steps forward, one step back” journey in Manchester.
Before the 2023 World Cup, the club had treated her as an attacking midfielder who could play between the lines. Then, after 12 months of improving but never quite breaking into the team, Taylor moved her to the wing. But then Taylor qualifies what he has just said by praising Fowler’s ability to shift from left to right and use both feet. And adds that she can be the best player in every single match but sometimes “we probably don’t see the best side of her”.have “picked each other’s brains” to try to solve the riddle. A couple of months ago, Gustavsson freely admitted he had not yet got to the bottom of it while also catering for the talents of Kerr and Foord .
“At national team we see a different way of playing, and I think we just try to play in a way that suits the most amount of players. So sometimes that means getting a different quality out of me. At the end of the day, I don’t really mind where I play, I’m just happy to be on the field and trying to help the team out.”Fowler has not only become a key component of the team but also the face of the Matildas, and arguably Australia’s entire Olympic team.
