Shearer stated, "You can imagine (the other teams) are sat there thinking 'we all want Coventry' which is understandable."
"But, Manchester United got them. It's not going to be easy for them, by the way. I was really impressed with Coventry.
The way they fought back against Wolves was really, really impressive and it was no fluke."
