I'm lucky and I appreciate that. I love every minute of every day.
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.

The managers are getting paid very well by their respective clubs to do a job for their clubs not the country they are working in.
Alan Shearer
Image
You have to go out onto the pitch feeling good about yourself. That can give you that extra 30 per cent.

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.

First is first. That's the way I was brought up. Second or third are nowhere.

If you want to have a great party at Wembley, don't invite the Germans.

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.

I didn't watch cartoons, I was too busy playing football.

I have never wanted to go abroad before but you can never say never in football.
Alan Shearer
Image
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
Image
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.
Alan Shearer
Image
If people don't like my style, then I can't do anything about that. I have been like that since I first entered into the game and it hasn't done me bad in the past, so I am not going to change now.
Alan Shearer
Image
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'd like to play for Newcastle United before I retire. The club is in my blood.
Alan Shearer
Image
I've got a great life that I really enjoy. But there is something chewing at me inside: that adrenaline rush from football, I miss that.
Alan Shearer
Image
I don't watch a lot of TV, to be honest. With three kids I have my hands full.

If you take the money away, a lot of the footballers would still be playing football. So, the money has nothing to do with it.

You never get fed up scoring goals.
