Just watched "Alan Shearer - Local Hero - sky sports 2006 tribute to the football legend" on Youtube (hope I'm allowed to mention that site? ).
47 minutes well spent that.
What a fucking player he was! Absolutely magnificent. That volley against Everton was just...unreal.
I knew he turned Man U down, but I didn't know he also had offers from Barcelona, Turin (Juve I guess) and London (Arsenal? Chelsea?) to come play for us.
Absolute legend.
Speaking of legends, I also watched "Sir Bobby Robson - Who wants to live forever?" on the same site. Great watch too, I really miss him. Never met him obviously, but I wish I had. Such a likeable man and my favorite manager without question.
