Unknown 0:08
This is tough, this one.
Gary Lineker 0:10
Micah's about to say something. I mean, who's his toughest opponent, I guess?
Unknown 0:15
I knew it! I knew that was coming.
Gary Lineker 0:18
Yes, Haz, you're with me, Haz. Well, he's got it because he's got the fucking list, Al. Hungry like a wolf?
Unknown 0:25
Yes.
Gary Lineker 0:26
What sort of nonsense is that? Her name is Rio and she's... Come on, yes, you're on it, you're on it. Come on, give us a clue then. You just had a fucking clue. This episode is powered by Fuse Energy. Before we kick off a quick pre-match warm-up from Fuse, a question on the teams and players who make things count. Which Premier League team scored the most goals via substitutes in 24-25 season?
Micah Richards 0:58
I'll just go with the top one, Brighton.
Gary Lineker 0:59
Al? Bournemouth. I can tell you now that Alan is wrong. Who? Micah, going with Brighton, is wrong. Back! The correct answer is Fulham. The closest to getting the number of goals that Fulham scored from the bench wins.
Alan Shearer 1:18
I'm going to guess 14.
Gary Lineker 1:19
Micah?
Alan Shearer 1:20
I'll go 17.
Gary Lineker 1:21
Well, Alan, 14. You were absolutely just three away because Micah with 17 is spot on.
Unknown 1:31
Spot on!

Hello and welcome to the Restage Football quiz episode with Alan Shearer, Micah Richards and me, Gary Lineker. This week's host of the quiz, for the very first time in his professional career, the greatest goal scorer in Premier League history, a certain Alan Shearer. And if it's top scorers in the Premier League history, then I'm going home now. Tell us the subject matter, please.
Alan Shearer 2:29
Yeah, I've got the subject here, guys. The... Subject is, boys, the most expensive Premier League exports.

What is the significance of the most expensive Premier League exports?

Alan Shearer 2:38
Exports? Yes. Exports? There's not that many going. Yes.
Micah Richards 2:44
Can you define exports, please?
Alan Shearer 2:46
Well, what do you think that means? Players that have left the Premier League, I presume, for a considerable amount of money. Is that in better English, Micah?
Micah Richards 2:57
Yeah, it's in layman's terms. Mucho Dosh. Mucho Dosh. Oh, this is tough, this one.
Gary Lineker 3:05
Yeah, I've got to remember who's gone for what, haven't you?
Alan Shearer 3:07
I know, yeah. And actually, I've just got to pull you up on something. It's not my very first time. Shows what impression I made the last time when I was the quiz master.
Gary Lineker 3:15
Oh, actually, you have done it, haven't you? Yes. Yeah, you know I'm no good at this remembering game. That's why I'm used to quizzes. I'm struggling here, you know, guys.
Alan Shearer 3:24
Really? Yeah. So, Micah, we'll give our guest quizzer the first opportunity to go again.
Gary Lineker 3:31
I'm trying to think of anyone who's actually gone that someone's paid for. This is what I'm struggling with. Come on. I suppose the thing is here, quite a few of the big name players that left probably went at the end of contracts.
Alan Shearer 3:43
Welcome to the rest is football quiz.
Gary Lineker 3:47
But Beckham must have cost some money. I can't remember whether he went for a fee or not, but I'll put David Beckham in there.
Alan Shearer 3:52
Is that your final answer, Gaz?
Gary Lineker 3:54
Yeah, yeah.
Alan Shearer 3:55
You need to work harder, man. Beckham is not even in the top 20.
Gary Lineker 4:01
Oh, actually, it's a long time ago as well. So you've got to go modern.
Alan Shearer 4:04
Yeah.
Gary Lineker 4:04
Yeah, I get it.
Alan Shearer 4:07
It's gone abroad. We'll be all right when you warm up. You'll be all right. You need to start doing a few stretches. Right. Over to you, Micah Richards.
Micah Richards 4:14
I don't want, because we constantly talk about it all the time, as pundits. Go on. Liverpool, when they brought in Van Dijk and Alisson, they used Coutinho money. Yes, Coutinho money.
Alan Shearer 4:26
Coutinho is number one. Liverpool to Barcelona, £142 million. This is hard, wouldn't know this. It is. Micah, 1-0.
Gary Lineker 4:37
You just gave me a clue there, though. I think you just almost said his name. What did you just say? It's hard, this. Hazard? Good.
Alan Shearer 4:47
Good shout. Eden Hazard. Because he went to Real Madrid, didn't he? First of all, do you want to talk about Philippe Coutinho? Good shout.
Gary Lineker 4:55
You put this in. Coutinho, I mean, he went for all that money, didn't he?
