Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.
Alan Shearer
Image
I always dreamed about scoring at St. James' Park. I fancied my chances and the ball flew into the net. I was ecstatic.
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'.
Alan Shearer
Image
I always practise penalties, but what people don't understand is that you can never recreate that pressure situation that you're under.

Image
If you want to have a great party at Wembley, don't invite the Germans.

I have never wanted to go abroad before but you can never say never in football.

No money in the world can buy a white England shirt.

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

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

I still get butterflies when England are playing.
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
Image
I'm lucky and I appreciate that. I love every minute of every day.
Alan Shearer
Image
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.

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
I don't watch a lot of TV, to be honest. With three kids I have my hands full.
Alan Shearer
Image
I've got a great life that I really enjoy. But there is something chewing at me inside: that adrenaline rush from football, I miss that.
Alan Shearer
Image
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
Image
You only get one chance of an England debut.
Alan Shearer
Image
Newcastle fans never cease to amaze me. If there was a trophy for best supporters this lot would win it hands down every year.
