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

You have to go out onto the pitch feeling good about yourself. That can give you that extra 30 per cent.

I still get butterflies when England are playing.
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've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.
Alan Shearer

Football's not just about scoring goals - it's about winning.
Alan Shearer
Image
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
Image
You never get fed up scoring goals.
Alan Shearer
Image
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 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'.

This is the better one. It's identical.

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