Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has launched a scathing attack on one of his former club’s key players following their 1-0 loss to Manchester United on Boxing Day.The Magpies suffered a frustrating defeat at Old Trafford, where Patrick Dorgu’s stunning first-half volley proved decisive. Despite dominating possession in the second half and hitting the woodwork through Lewis Hall, Newcastle failed to find an equaliser, leaving them winless in recent big away fixtures.Shearer, watching as a fan rather than a pundit, didn’t hold back in his post-match assessment. He ripped into a Nick Woltemade —for a lacklustre display, describing the performance as “lazy and disinterested” up front. “He offered absolutely nothing,” Shearer reportedly fumed, highlighting missed chances and poor movement that cost the team dearly.In an honest admission, the Premier League’s all-time top scorer conceded the player has “undoubted talent” but is currently “miles off the required level” for high-stakes games. Shearer urged the star to rediscover his form quickly, warning that consistent underperformance could derail Newcastle’s season.The criticism comes amid a tough festive period for Eddie Howe’s side, who now sit mid-table. Fans echoed Shearer’s sentiments online, calling for improvements ahead of upcoming matches.
