Nothing's black or white in our country - you're either brilliant or you're hopeless

I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.

The FA Cup means a lot. There is a real passion here for the competition which you don't get elsewhere. It's a love affair. It's part and parcel of living up here. People might think I'm daft, but I'm not wrong I'd rather win the Cup than the League.

When I go home every night, I can look in the mirror and say I have given 110 per cent for Newcastle United. If people aren't happy with that, I can't give any more.

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.

I have never wanted to go abroad before but you can never say never in football.

I want to be around when Newcastle win a trophy because I want to see this place lift off. It will be one hell of a party for a long time.

I'd like to play for Newcastle United before I retire. The club is in my blood.

For me, Paul Scholes has been the best midfield player in the Premier League. By a mile. He has the lot. He scores and creates goals, he can pass the ball, he can head it, and rounds all this off with a competitive streak.

One accusation you can't throw at me is that I've always done my best.
Alan Shearer
Image
It does not bother me that some say I'm dull and boring because the people that do know me will tell you a different story. It is very difficult to be open with people you don't know. There is nothing I can do about the fact that the real me does not get across and it is probably difficult to know the real me.

I always practise penalties, but what people don't understand is that you can never recreate that pressure situation that you're under.

Image
I always dreamed about scoring at St. James' Park. I fancied my chances and the ball flew into the net. I was ecstatic.

Defeat is not worth thinking about.

Andy Carroll will cause anyone problems and I don't see a problem in that

Sometimes going in for a hard tackle generates a louder cheer than a great pass.

I would play in any number shirt for Newcastle United, but the No 9 at Newcastle is something very special and I've always wanted to wear it. I mentioned it to the manager, he mentioned it to Les and Les has been very kind and given it to me.

I spend time with my family. I have got two daughters who are too young to know their Dad's a footballer. They just want to play with their Dad. I like to play golf, too, but apart from that, that's me, I'm afraid.

I made no secret of the fact I'd love to stay in football and to do that, you need badges. I'm starting them and that's the next step for me - to continue this next season.

I have always said that the best feeling in the world is scoring a goal. Don't tell my missus that, but it is. When that ball hits the back of the net, it is fantastic.
