If Shearer had played for a giant like Real Madrid, Milan or Bayern, he would be considered as an even bigger legend. But his loyalty to Newcastle was amazing. I enjoyed watching the Premier League summaries here in Spain mainly because of him and Le Tissier. What an era. What a player.
Strong enough to bully centre backs, fast enough to run away from them, as good as anyone I've seen in the air including Cristiano Ronaldo and a cannon of a shot that was as accurate as it was powerful. Wasn't flamboyant and chose to become a legend at his hometown club instead of chasing trophies which is why he's not as highly regarded as he deserves to be. Best number 9 of the Premier League era.
@@waynem4791 He was just all around no nonsense wasn't he? The only time you saw him in the papers was for football related matters. No outlandish lifestyle, no major controversy, no wife trying to get famous off his back, just boring but in a really good way.
@TACMAL Rooney was great all around, more versatile that any of these others but maybe not quite as good of a finisher. Harry Kane may be the best English finisher if he keeps it up.
@@jtaco4101 kane needs a lot more chances to score, he's not as clinical. Shearer saved Newcastle from relegation time and time again with 1 or 2 chances a game
I'm a Newcastle Utd supporter & Alan Shearer was my hero when I was a kid & he's STILL TO THIS DAY the only player to score 260 premiership goals & he's been retired about 15 years he's a LEGEND!!!
and how many in the top flight before it became the Premiership. you can add enough 43 on for the old 1st division when he played for Southampton and no one will ever get close to his final tally. btw same as you Black and White though my viens.
@@mmaphilosophy well for me and no surprice really in english football it ha to be Wor Alan. Shearer for what he did as a footballer will be very hard to break.
@@jrpeacock8695 He actually used to live not far from me in the North east wynyard estate, about 18 mile away from boro. But now he lives in darras Hall Northumberland 70-80 mile or so away
Best English player I've ever watched, and there were quite a few throughout the last four decades. His pace, power, technique and striking were fantastic and his consistency was unbelievable, he ALWAYS scored, especially in big matches, which is something only greatest players do. Not to mention that 90% of his goals were pure screamers. God, I miss the nineties, Shearer, Batistuta, Bergkamp, Del Piero, Inzaghi, Rivaldo, Cantona, Zidane, Raul, Ronaldo, Fowler, Šuker, Baggio, Klinsmann, Weah ... it seems that every serious club had at least one superstar and that talent was much more evenly distributed than today.
This man scored Goals wen defense was full of Tony Adam's, Jaap stams, Martin keolin, mays, palesters.. He was constant each season with all types of injuries.. No one EVER BETTER IN THE AIR THAN HIM.. A TRUE NUMBER 9!
So true about "in the air"! The only other player to score more headers in the Premier League is Crouch, and at his ridiculous height of course he was!
In his earlier career he wasn't known as a target man, but an explosive goal scorer; like an Inzaghi. As he got older he changed the way he played to be the target man who could play the ball forward to other players. He used his strength and power to assist others, like a Drogba. Not many forwards are able to change/adapt their game like he did and remain at the top of the game; most get relegated to a midfield/defensive role.
He is simply the greatest no.9 the English game has ever seen. No flash or gimmicks. Just simple, no-nonsense attacking football with one hell of a powerful right foot. 5:59 That volley from outside the box vs Everton is Shearer at his lethal best.
Exactly. He goes to show that you don't need flash to be a great forward. Brilliant in the box, he could score from almost any position but could also hit powerfully from range. He was a goal scoring machine, few were as consistent and ruthless in the final third.
Pretty sure even today's modern day high frame-rate cameras can't capture Alan Shearer's thunderbolts without going all blurry.. What power 🙌...What a legend
what makes him to be a living legend is that he become the most goal scorer in EPL without even join the big tim such as MU, ARSENAL or LIVERPOOL who has lots of talented players.
The way he shoots some balls, today they dont have the confidence to do that shiii no more, they all go inside foot when someone passes back to him, he blasts everything first touch xD
Alan shearer is my six year old boys best player that says a lot. As a Newcastle fan watching him every week was like a dream I still remember going down to the stadium when he was announced by keegan get goosebumps just thinking about it. Best striker ever to play I. The premier league and one of the best of all time world wide
the Man UTD fan in me would never forgive that Alan Shearer refused to sign for us, had he signed we would've won many more Champions League. But the football fan in me always just loved watching this man play, I don't think anybody other than Cristiano Ronaldo can strike the ball as powerful as him
@@TunjungUtomo oh yes ,did read it wrongly (indeed van nistelrooy was a different kind of attacking player). imagine to have them both together as a strikers couple😃
@@yoonyul38 Adriano has the power, but most of the time his accuracy is erratic. Zlatan scored spectacular goals, doesn’t mean his shots is always powerful
I can remember on 6 english world class scorers ; Keagan, Lineker, Shearer, Owen, Rooney and Kane. Shearer was the most completed of all them. Canonball in the right foot. He could choose the club in Europe where he wanted to play but he choosed Newcastle, to became a legend.
It really isn't. It's the most standard of all touches. He's facing the direction of the pass plus he even has somebody to lean in. You have never played football, have you?
It's funny that mojority of fans who started watching football from the last decade doesn't know about him. All they talk about from the epl are the strikers from the last decade and discarding him. Don't get me wrong there were some extraordinary strikers but he is the best striker in the epl. Henry comes very close.

Nah, only 1 bit wrong there. Not as good as ronaldo in the air, nor as good as sir les in the air either. But lethal nonetheless
Honestly we could do with another shearer right about now
He is highly regarded. 😊
So many goals not even included here, the best English finisher of all time
After Jimmy Greaves
He sure was
@TACMAL Rooney was great all around, more versatile that any of these others but maybe not quite as good of a finisher. Harry Kane may be the best English finisher if he keeps it up.

Cap
Alan Shearer is a Real Legend of English Football.
From Ukraine, Dnipro.
Lies again? NRIC Goals
Днепропетровск, дурак, как минимум
Alan shearer probably one of my favourite ever strikers.
Un vrai 9 comme on en voit plus, et plus technique que l'on pense.
Grand joueur captain Shearer !
he is a true legend, a true number nine who shouts that football is passion, not money. Tnk u shearer!!

Henry was 5 times better and he played at a time when there was 22 teams.
Shearer's time at Blackburn is seriously underrepresented on YT - a lot of his best were scored there
Very true.
He was basically very similar to a 21/22 year old Rooney who had pace and absolute banger of a shot.
Deadliest English striker of all time
Its funny how footage from 1996 has better clarity than some of them from 2002 🤣
The best finisher in premier league history
Rooney was better
@@TSF15152 says a man u fan
@@TSF15152260 goals says no and he was out for 2 seasons
The only striker I put ahead of Henry. Was an absolute monster. Imagine Henry and Shearer as a striking duo with Berkgamp behind them? Whewww
For me he always took the shot a half step earlier than you would normally expect a player on the run... keepers we're rarely set. Genius
The 8K quality made this the best goal compilation I have ever seen.
Pretty sure even today's modern day high frame-rate cameras can't capture Alan Shearer's thunderbolts without going all blurry..
What power 🙌...What a legend
They can
It's not about the frame rate, it's about shutter angle or shutter speed and they easily can
greatest striker the premier league will ever see, one hell of a boot on him!
Great longevity and loyalty. Best we’l ever see? Nah the great ones like Suarez/Ronaldo/Henry leave after a few seasons because they are too good
Alan Shearer! Legend! Love from Indonesia!
what makes him to be a living legend is that he become the most goal scorer in EPL without even join the big tim such as MU, ARSENAL or LIVERPOOL who has lots of talented players.
3.36 what a goal
The way he shoots some balls, today they dont have the confidence to do that shiii no more, they all go inside foot when someone passes back to him, he blasts everything first touch xD
Agreed but imo there is less in the final third today than when he played.
He deserved a Ballon D’OR
Alan Shearer and Gabriel Batistuta are my top two Beast strikers. R9 and Drogba are somewhere around there, too.
This Shearer of a guy is simply a beast.
Shearer had a thunderous shot.
His confidence in shooting, first touch finishes volleys, its unique

Shearer is the icon of English traditional number 9
One of greatest strickers to ever play the game
260 goal for his whole career...... Was a milestone to be reckon with
The sheer consistency of that celebration🤣
My favourite player. Loyalty. It meant something to him.
He was a legend. Best ever
Shearer! What a Footballer!
Amazing striker. Black boots and the all mighty english hand raised cheers. That's the way football should be
Absolutely Number One!!!
That music near made my head explode!

Van nistelrooy maybe
@@MrIreland4ever don’t think so, Van Nistelrooy’s strength more on his ball handling, positioning and precision, not in shot power

adriano? ibrahimovic?
@@yoonyul38 Adriano has the power, but most of the time his accuracy is erratic. Zlatan scored spectacular goals, doesn’t mean his shots is always powerful
Absolute Legend. Top Corners of the net all day.
Best UK and English Football Team ever...
He is the best english forward on the last 20 yrs

Great first touch. Deadly accurate
We had Alan Shearer
He’s not from Argentina
He’s from the Toon
He drinks the Broon
That Black and White shirt Is Fucking Mint...The one when Sir Bobby Robson was the Manager Boys and Germs...
forget the power, it's the accuracy that's mental.
my favorite players in 90s. the most complete attacker
all the way from Iraq
His goal sense is out of this world
great center forward ever for england... this lads really awesome
Simply, THE BEST!
Awe, proper nostalgic Strikes, Headers, Volley's, Screamers etc.. Noice1...
The Greatest Ever!!!
Newcastle need another goal scoring machine like this.
This guys shot power is out of this world
not just the scoring of the goals but the work and planning behind the strike it should be on the curriculum in englands training camp
The GOAT
The Villa goal was epic. It’s a shame he didn’t win anything with Newcastle 😢
At least he's got a Premier League's medal.
such a Newcastle legend
What a player bro
😎
That goal against Everton was filth
4:48 favourite shearer goal without a doubt
Goal against Everton was better
This was the goal being shown as I read the comment. Spooky 👻 😂
LFC fan, but loved Shearer - lethal
For me the best player 💪👍
pure number 9
Shearer is a best soccer of England. İn 1996 europe shampionship he played very well
Legend forever'.....☀️🔥🔥🔥🔥
What a stricker he was, haven't seen one like him in years, until Suarez showed up in Liverpool
Один из лучших! Поднятая рука, супер
Don't see many modern day CF like him that can really strike a ball like him
Modern day is full of shitty wingers who cant shoot or cross for shit.
Hae bro I found your channel interesting content, could you tell me where to find premier league games from 2010.. with original commentary.Thanks bro
That goal at 4:44 is pure class. I always wished he would've come and play in Italy
So Happy Today If any club Deserved it more 🖤🤍
Because of the clubs he played for!! Nevertheless, he was a great finisher. All you heard was: Sheaarerrrrrr!!!!
This guy was as good with his head as his feet.
First touch masterclass
Goat play
Legend💯
THE GODFATHER OF THE TOON
3:36
0:44 insane first touch
It really isn't. It's the most standard of all touches. He's facing the direction of the pass plus he even has somebody to lean in. You have never played football, have you?
i love you alan
Why oh why do people think music makes it better, it is so off putting.
5:02 Today VAR would have had a deep check on that one. I hate that thing.
Super
One legend...
he's my hero!
The finisher
My legend
Greatest player ever!!

He’s a better striker but Henry is a better overall player
@@grandpadude2564if we rating on talent and striker position r9 beats them both

Sadly, a few of those would be ruled out by VAR nowadays 😢
And people still compare him to Harry kane. 😂

SHEARER ❤
