Since joining Newcastle
United in the Summer of 1996, Alan Shearer displayed the goalscoring prowess that first thrilled Southampton and
Blackburn fans. However, he's also endured serious injury and loss of
form, and taken his fair share of criticism. While he
never won a trophy with Newcastle, his Semi-Final goals
shot us to Wembley in successive years, and at one stage it looked as
if his form in front of goal and partnership with Les Ferdinand would
see the Premiership trophy make its way to St.James' Park.
Alas it wasn't to be. So, was he worth £15m ?
