Good Old Super Kev Just said on SSN's that wen he smashed the golden boot award as top scorer it was halfly to stick it up that prick Shearer who said "No English man would score 30 in the premiership" hahahahaha LEGEND
To be fair, Phillip's 30 goal season is more impressive than Shearer's two seasons he done it. Shearer did it with Blackburn who won the league and came close the other time. Phillips did it for Sunderland. Not to say Phillips is a better player than Shearer mind but his 30 goal season is miles more impressive.
As is Shearer's goal record at Newcastle. We had a few decent seasons with him, especially under Bobby, but look at his record in the Roeder / Souness / Guillt / Dagliesh days - we have had some fucking awful teams during those days And he missed 2 seasons with injury Not saying that Shearer is better than Phillips mind
Phillips won the European Golden Boot, never ind the premiership he scored more than every other striker in europe. Pubic Wig never won fuck all with the mags and he still got a bar named after him
Shearer scored goals consistently throughout his career Shearer did it at International level Shearer's goals argurably won Blackburn the league If Phillips was that good, then why did he never get a move to a big club? To say he was better is moronic.
He got a move to villa which is pretty big, he wasnt as good as shearer but he was a good striker who probably deserved more england caps than he got, if carlton coles good enough for england phillips defiinitely is
Lol fair point. Along with a whole till roll I could quite easily name over the years also! Phillips was a good player, cant deny it.
Why didnt Shearer join a big club? I havent said Phillips is better than Super Al, I said he won the golden boot something Al never did
