He previously played in England for Sheffield United, Crystal Palace and Millwall. During his time at Crystal Palace he earned the affectionate title of "goal machine". He scored the first ever goal in the newly formed Hyundai A-League against the Newcastle United Jets in a 1-0 opening day victory.
He made his debut for the Socceroos in 1992 and played 18 'A' matches, scoring 7 goals.
