Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez was delighted for Robbie Fowler after his goal in yesterday's win over West Brom.
Overall, it was his 173rd in 341 appearances, moving him up to fifth on Liverpool's all-time goalscoring list behind Ian Rush, Roger Hunt, Gordon Hodgson and Billy Liddell.
With Fowler only on a short-term contract to the end of the season, his future remains in doubt.
Benitez said: "Congratulations to him. It is a fantastic number of goals, although I would like to see more this season.
"There's no problem about his future. It's not a question of whether he can score one or two more goals for us, the question is whether he can give us other things.
"We don't have to make a decision now. We will do it in a few weeks because we are not in a hurry.
"But he looks hungry and that's the most important thing."
