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

Defeat is not worth thinking about.

When I was a young boy I wanted to play for Newcastle United, I wanted to wear the number nine shirt and I wanted to score goals at St James' Park. I've lived my dream and I realise how lucky I've been to have done that.
Alan Shearer
Image
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.

My motto in life is 'if you give 100 per cent then no one can ask any more'.
Alan Shearer
Image
I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.
Alan Shearer
Image
I like the tag of being the world's most expensive player. It's an honour and a privilege.
Alan Shearer
Image
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
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.
Alan Shearer

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

You only get one chance of an England debut.
Alan Shearer
Image
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'd like to play for Newcastle United before I retire. The club is in my blood.
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.

Football's not just about scoring goals - it's about winning.

You never get fed up scoring goals.
