[quote=andy4;149857]Completely agree. If you want to achieve your full potential then you move to a big club.
Shearer WAS a mercenary because he chose Blackburn over United for money reasons. Chris Sutton's the same. He wanted to join Arsenal, but his agent made him talk to Blackburn to get an offer of silly money to use as a bargaining chip with Arsenal to get more money out of them. Blackburn did offer him silly money and he took it.
If either of these players were going to move for footballing reasons they would've gone to United and Arsenal over Blackburn anyday.
