More quotes by Alan Shearer
No money in the world can buy a white England shirt.
Alan Shearer
You never get fed up scoring goals.
Alan Shearer
If you want to have a great party at Wembley, don't invite the Germans.
Alan Shearer
You only get one chance of an England debut.
Alan Shearer
I'd like to play for Newcastle United before I retire. The club is in my blood.
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 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.
Alan Shearer
I don't know what I'd have become if I hadn't been a footballer I wrote down 'dustbin man' on a careers questionnaire at school till my dad made me change it to 'joiner'.
Alan Shearer
If people are going to write bad things about me because it makes news, I can brush it aside because I've had this for 10 years. I'm big enough and strong enough to cope with it. It's what comes with being Alan Shearer.
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
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.
Alan Shearer
This is the better one. It's identical.
Alan Shearer
I've turned down Barcelona, Inter Milan, Juventus and Manchester United to play here. I hope everyone already knows how much it means to me to play for Newcastle United.
Alan Shearer
I don't watch a lot of TV, to be honest. With three kids I have my hands full.
Alan Shearer
Any change of my style, the way I've played for 10 years, will not be a drastic one. Yes, I've always given as good as I've got as a forward you have to do that because, if you don't look after yourself, you might find yourself being thrown in a hole and buried.
Alan Shearer
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
Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.
Alan Shearer
I have never wanted to go abroad before but you can never say never in football.
Alan Shearer
Andy Carroll will cause anyone problems and I don't see a problem in that
Alan Shearer
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.
