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.

More quotes by Alan Shearer
I like the tag of being the world's most expensive player. It's an honour and a privilege.
Alan Shearer
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.
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
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
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
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
Newcastle fans never cease to amaze me. If there was a trophy for best supporters this lot would win it hands down every year.
Alan Shearer
Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.
Alan Shearer
I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.
Alan Shearer
I have never wanted to go abroad before but you can never say never in football.
Alan Shearer
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
This is the better one. It's identical.
Alan Shearer
As a kid I always wanted to be a centre-forward. I wanted the buzz and thrill of scoring goals from an early age.
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
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
We go there with confidence, but we know there is a very fine line between success and failure in this game.
Alan Shearer
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
I still get butterflies when England are playing.
Alan Shearer
You never get fed up scoring goals.
Alan Shearer
Basically, a manager is a father figure to 20 or 25 blokes. It's about trying to get the best out of them and creating team spirit.
