Alan Shearer
Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.
Alan Shearer
One accusation you can't throw at me is that I've always done my best.
Alan Shearer
Yes, I do like to be in control. I do like everything to be laid out, to know what I'm doing. I'm very impatient. I like things done yesterday, which is probably a fault of mine. I like things to be neat and tidy and organised. I say what I want and show what I want and I keep things private.
Alan Shearer
I always dreamed about scoring at St. James' Park. I fancied my chances and the ball flew into the net. I was ecstatic.
Alan Shearer
If you ask footballers to pick out the player they most admire, so many of them will pick Paul Scholes. His passing and shooting is of the highest level and he’s the most consistent and naturally gifted player we’ve had for a long, long time.
Alan Shearer

There's no way the future's over for Martin Keown, Tony Adams or David Seaman.
Alan Shearer
People say he doesn't score a lot of goals with his head, but does he really have to with the ability he has in his feet? He makes spectacular goals look easy. His technique is fantastic. (on Thierry Henry)
Alan Shearer
People are very proud of Newcastle, very proud to come from here. This is a working class City and they just want to enjoy themselves and live life to the full. They work all week, pick their wages up at the end of the week and they spend it over a weekend by having a good time and watching the football. That's our life.
Alan Shearer
You have to go out onto the pitch feeling good about yourself. That can give you that extra 30 per cent.
Alan Shearer
If you want to have a great party at Wembley, don't invite the Germans.
Alan Shearer
Andy Carroll will cause anyone problems and I don't see a problem in that
Alan Shearer
There was a big possibility that I would have had to leave Newcastle had Ruud Gullit stayed as manager.
Alan Shearer
You should always give 100%. If you do that then no-one can ask any more of you. Someone once said to me when I was a kid: 'If you're asked to do ten sprints, by all means do 11 but never do nine because you're only cheating yourself'.
Alan Shearer
I like the tag of being the world's most expensive player. It's an honour and a privilege.
