Alan Shearer

We lost the game at Anfield, yeah.

Yeah, we were miles in front of the Man United who were clawing us back.

And...

Because of our lack of experience, we hadn't won it, whereas United had won it the previous two years in 92, 93, 93, 94.

And then it was just that they were coming back at us and we'd never won it.

Little old Blackburn coming in and taking the might of Man United on and beating them.

So, yeah, it was a nervy time.

But Eric says we wouldn't have won it if he hadn't have been suspended.

And rightly so as well.

He made such a difference, I think, to that.

I mean, it was one of the best signings of all time, that was, for Manchester United and for getting him for £1.2 million.

He's everything about it.

It was, yeah.

Yeah, that guy, that guy there, the kit man or whoever it was, when he's walking off with him, just go back, he tries to grab all of them, misses it and actually misses him.

I believe.

He tries to grab him, but you can't grab him.

I mean...

I think it was six months.

And talk to people.

You remember people, instead of your head down on your phone like that, he said he wants his kids to go out.
