Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has claimed that snubbing Manchester United in favour of a move to St James' Park was the 'best decision' he ever made.
Both sides will meet in this weekend's Carabao Cup Final, but Shearer has opened up about the serious possibility of him heading to Old Trafford instead of back home to Newcastle.
The Premier League record goalscorer started his career in the Southampton academy but not before growing up watching some of the most famous players ever play for the Magpies in his hometown.
