Shearer questions Shelvey's attitude

Alan Shearer questions the logic in relegation-threatened Swansea City selling England midfielder Jonjo Shelvey to fellow strugglers Newcastle United.

Shearer, who scored 148 Premier League goals for the Magpies, says there has to be doubts over the 23-year-old because there's "something wrong with his attitude".

"Many managers have tried to get the best out of him and failed," Shearer added.

"Surely, at his age, the penny has to drop. He will not get a bigger opportunity than he has now at Newcastle. He has to do it here".
