And TBH I would pick Shearer in my all time greatest before Gerrard every time. Alan Shearer played teams that on paper were inferior to most if the teams Gerrard played in as well.
So we're in agreement then, it's much easier to win things when you're surrounded by great players. I agree with you about shearer he is right up there imo with the giants of premier league football, he didn't win anything with the inferior teams he played for though, just the really good one, oh and that semi final goal was just that, a great goal, did he do much in the rest of the game, can't recall it that well myself?
