More quotes by Alan Shearer
If you want to have a great party at Wembley, don't invite the Germans.
Alan Shearer
There's no way the future's over for Martin Keown, Tony Adams or David Seaman.
Alan Shearer
I have never wanted to go abroad before but you can never say never in football.
Alan Shearer
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.
Alan Shearer
There was a big possibility that I would have had to leave Newcastle had Ruud Gullit stayed as manager.
Alan Shearer
One accusation you can't throw at me is that I've always done my best.
Alan Shearer
I'm lucky and I appreciate that. I love every minute of every day.
Alan Shearer
The FA Cup means a lot. There is a real passion here for the competition which you don't get elsewhere. It's a love affair. It's part and parcel of living up here. People might think I'm daft, but I'm not wrong I'd rather win the Cup than the League.
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
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
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
If you ask footballers to pick out the player they most admire, so many of them will pick Paul Scholes.
Alan Shearer
I'd like to play for Newcastle United before I retire. The club is in my blood.
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
This is the better one. It's identical.
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
Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.
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.
Alan Shearer
You have to go out onto the pitch feeling good about yourself. That can give you that extra 30 per cent.
Alan Shearer
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.
