Alan Shearer says he’s actually not yet convinced by Tottenham player Gary Lineker really likes.
Alan Shearer has admitted that he is not yet convinced by one Tottenham Hotspur player Gary Lineker really likes, insisting that it is too soon to get carried away with him.
Spurs returned to winning ways at the weekend, with Ange Postecoglou’s side beating Burnley 2-1 to keep their slim top-four hopes alive heading into the final couple of games.
Tottenham remain a work in progress, having lost their previous four games in the Premier League, but the three points will have done them the world of good. And the winner came from an unlikely source.
Micky van de Ven found the bottom corner with such a composed finish late on, doing brilliantly to create the opportunity after receiving the ball for James Maddison.

But it seems that not everyone is certain that the 23-year-old is going to be a star, with Gary Lineker telling The Rest is Football that Alan Shearer has a question mark over the youngster.
“I like him. Alan is not so sure, we have had a bit of a debate. He suffered a bit because he did his hamstring and then he had another tweak and he made a couple of mistakes particularly against Newcastle. I think he is going to be very good and he’s still young,” Lineker said.
