A hatchet Job on Shearer ?

[DexterTCN]

Shearer (and Sutton) were the main ones responsible the last time a BIG team didn't win the title.

They were on fire that year.

I think that if Shearer is Keegan's number two, there's a serious risk that Keegan's authority will be undermined rather than reinforced by Shearer's presence.

Yup.

s'funny, but i've always thought of him as a number two

Yes, he's a piece of shit. Someone should do the world a favour and flush him.

Seriously, though, I don't think his ego would allow for anyone else to be in charge. I think he likes his current job, which lets him criticise managers and players without stepping into the firing line himself. I can't see him trying for himself - he loves himself too much to risk failure.
