Alan Shearer's punditry style might have changed over the years, but it's good to see his football ability has stayed the same.

The former England and striker chipped a football over a swimming pool and into a chair at the first attempt - at least his son Will, who filmed the effort, claimed the precise shot was first-time lucky. The effort was vintage Shearer, right down to his trademark celebration. https://twitter.com/willshearer9/status/618386801959522304 With the likes of Emmanuel Riviere misfiring at Shearer's former club Newcastle last season, perhaps it's time to coax the 44-year-old out of retirement. If fellow fortysomething Henrik Larsson can do it, why can't he? H/T Lancashire Telegraph
