Premier League’s best indirect free-kick? Alan Shearer’s goal for Newcastle v West Brom

Does Alan Shearer get enough respect? The retired striker scored a staggering 260 Premier League goals during his career with Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle United.

He also netted 23 goals with Southampton in the old First Division before the Premier League was formed in 1992, which people often fail to remember.

Only one other player in history has managed to score more than 200 Premier League goals so far and that’s Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney, who finished on 208 goals – 52 behind Shearer’s record.

Andy Cole is third on the all-time list with 187 followed by Sergio Aguero on 184. However, Tottenham star Harry Kane has an excellent chance of breaking the record if he continues playing in England’s top division.
