Shearer is a 'Tony Adams' appointment

I haven't much time on my hands, so as I watch Newcastle go down two-nil to Chelsea on Match Of The Day 2, I just have time to express my opinion on the appointment of Alan Shearer.

It is another 'Tony Adams' appointment. Like Adams, he has no mangerial credentials and is just a big name. In my opinion, he is one of the worst pundits to have been to Match Of The Day. When he said that Spain won Euro 2008 with no luck on their side was rubbish. Spain had won a game in the last minute, Russia hit the goal-frame twice before Spain beat them and won a match on penalties.

The only way Shearer will keep Newcastle up is if he spreads confidence through the team, but having lost the first match I cannot see it happening. It would not surprise me if Newcastle do not win another game this season. I will be surprised if the Magpies are not playing Championship football next season.

And while I am putting my neck on the line, Manchester United will still win the title. Liverpool have not had a chance for a while.
