More quotes by 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
We go there with confidence, but we know there is a very fine line between success and failure in this game.

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

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
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.
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
Nothing's black or white in our country - you're either brilliant or you're hopeless
Alan Shearer
One accusation you can't throw at me is that I've always done my best.
Alan Shearer
I've got two girls. I like to play golf. Apart from that there's not a lot goes on in my life. So I am boring, aren't I?
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 like the tag of being the world's most expensive player. It's an honour and a privilege.
Alan Shearer
Football's not just about scoring goals - it's about winning.
Alan Shearer
I always dreamed about scoring at St. James' Park. I fancied my chances and the ball flew into the net. I was ecstatic.
