More quotes by Alan Shearer
At times they don't like you to kick them and they feel you're not allowed to kick them.
Alan Shearer
If you take the money away, a lot of the footballers would still be playing football. So, the money has nothing to do with it.
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
Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.
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 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
My motto in life is 'if you give 100 per cent then no one can ask any more'.
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
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
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
No money in the world can buy a white England shirt.
Alan Shearer
Nothing's black or white in our country - you're either brilliant or you're hopeless
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
I always practise penalties, but what people don't understand is that you can never recreate that pressure situation that you're under.
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.
Alan Shearer
There's no way the future's over for Martin Keown, Tony Adams or David Seaman.
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
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
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.
Alan Shearer
Defeat is not worth thinking about.
