Fowler is now manager of Brisbane Roar in Australia's A-League, which confirmed on Monday it will play the final six matches of their regular season behind closed doors in order to conclude the campaign.
He believes that is the correct approach and thinks the Premier League should be prioritising the current season, no matter the timescale.
"I think the season has to play out, regardless of how long we have to wait," the ex-England international told Sky Sports News.
"In all fairness, I think they (the Premier League) should wait as long as it takes and then plays all the games. If any season is going to be interrupted it should be next season because then everyone starts on a level playing field and knows what the implications are".
