Alan Shearer's Career Ended Too Soon

 
The Newcastle captain Alan Shearer's career is over after scans on his knee injury confirmed his final season has been ended prematurely.


The 35-year-old former England striker was injured in a challenge by Sunderland midfielder Julio Arca in last week's Premiership victory over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.

Shearer had scored his 206th - and now final - Newcastle goal from the penalty spot shortly before limping off in that win at Sunderland.

In all he scored 379 goals in 733 club appearances  which started at Southampton and also took in a high-profile spell at Blackburn. He also netted 30 times in 63 appearances for England.

As a result, he will not play for the Magpies in the final three remaining Premiership matches of the season


His legendary status at Newcastle worth praising.


        
        
             

the greatest striker in the EPL, but he went to the wrong club.

i personally dont think so, unlike our players he played for the love of the game and for the club he supported as a child

"ANGEL OF THE NORTH" 

Goodbye my Captain
u are the man
ve a nice rest

Shearer's career ended too soon at 35? Come on!

Too late in my opinion. That man has undermined every manager since Keegan left the place. His spat with Gullit was unpleasant. He has always looked after number one (himself). For me, he was a very good goal scorer, but not a great player. Now that he has left the toon, other players will blossom, and maybe Newcastle will fulfil their ambitions (win something).
