The Premier League's all-time top scorer sits down with Kelly Somers to talk punditry, coaching ambitions and his famous goals record.
Alan Shearer has never been short of opinions, and in a wide-ranging audio chat with Kelly Somers, the former England striker covers the three topics fans ask him about most: life on Match of the Day, the prospect of managerial work, and the scoring record that still carries his name.
Shearer is a fixture on the MOTD sofa, where his straight-talking analysis has become part of the Saturday-night routine for millions. The conversation gives a look behind the studio lights at how a former number nine approaches breaking down the weekend's biggest talking points.
Management is the other big thread. Shearer's only spell in the dugout came at Newcastle United, the club he starred for as a player, and the question of whether he would ever return to the touchline has followed him since. He addresses that head-on in the interview.
Then there is the number that defines his playing legacy: 260 Premier League goals, the benchmark every elite striker in the English top flight is measured against. Shearer reflects on that record and what it means to him, all in a relaxed, personal chat. It's one for football purists who like their legends candid.
