RVP too, missed loads before scoring a worldy. Shearer would say 'you'll knock 2 or 3 20 yards over the bar before smashing 1 in the top corner
As I have a habit to compare the current players with all time greats, isn't Shearer game a bit similar to Gyokeres?

You'd have to put Shearer up there with as 1 of the best ball strikers in history from all kinds of positions on the pitch. So I don't think you can really compare Gyokeres to him

I suppose the main commonality would be both kept going for goal again and again. Both are great at attacking space in the box too

What I can remember is that Shearer scored a lot (ugly) goals, not very technical and always on the right spot in front of goal.

Shearer was elite in the air, one of the best ever. The ball used to fly like a rocket from his balding shiny forehead 😂

Scored 46(!) Premier League headers in his career. Only beaten by Crouchy with a collosal 53 - half of all the goals he scored!!

Feel like all these numbers are what the sporting directors sort out in the off season.

I’d be surprised if Berta is now just finding out what Sesko will cost.

Would be annoying to miss out on Osi regen.

Imagine being 6’5 spinning away from defender with ease, and then putting the ball on a plate with a trivela cross and you got noobs online calling you raw because you’re only 21.

Gyokeres has scored only 5 headers out of 70 his non-penalty goals for Sporting.
No comparison to Shearer.

Yea for his height his leap was immense. He's underrated because he went to his boyhood club. If he went to United or Arsenal he'd have won tons of comps and scored more goals

His PL record is also better than it looks, he probably has 40 top flight goals before the First Division turned to the PL

Starting to look more and more like a back up plan until Gyokeres price drops down 😅

Must be hard to be a Sesko fanboy.

You might not have watched prime Shearer though, who played for Blackburn, where he was a killer and still had pace. By the end of his career his legs were so far gone he struggled to walk up the stairs

At Southampton he was very rapid, suffered a bad injury and never got that level of pace back.

For me Shearer is the best pure striker in the history of the PL, thought Haaland will probably surpass him if he stays at Man City for most of his career.

One of the best headers of the ball ever too....Not something you could say about Gyokeres :lol:

Lost his aerial duels. Gave the ball away countless times. Simple minds don't spot the finer details.

Reminds me a bit of Giroud, and I mean that as a compliment.
One of our most underrated players ever.

Tbh people on here just don't like tall players, as they usually just look a bit more laboring/clumsy.
Mertesacker, Giroud, Xhaka, Havertz have gotten so much irrational hate on this forum over the years.
