While he won't come as easily as some of the prior objective cards, Alan Shearer might be one of the most useable players to be released in an objective recently. His Icon status gives him extra chemistry points, and his English heritage can enable links with popular players like Jude Bellingham. Whether Shearer is a must-have striker, or your latest fodder card, he's worth the time to earn.

This objective expires at reset time on July 5, 2024.

What Are The Alan Shearer Greats Of The Game Objectives?

Close

Alan Shearer's Greats of the Game objective challenge features tasks highlighting Shearer's contribution to English football and his status as a legend in his home country.

His tremendous accolades required years of work to achieve, and similarly, this set of objectives will be more demanding in terms of the minimum number of games needed to complete them.

Each challenge can be completed on minimum Semi-Pro difficulty in Squad Battles, or online in either Rivals or Champions.

Challenge Name

Completion Requirement

True Attacker

Score eight goals using English Attackers.

Strikers Touch

Score and assist at least one goal per match using English players in three separate matches.

From Distance

Score three goals from outside the box.

Winning Formula

Win 12 matches while having a minimum of three English players in your starting 11.

These objectives require a strong set of English playmakers to fulfill the demanding requirements, so navigate to your Club, then update your Squad with the best English players you have.

How To Complete The Alan Shearer Greats Of The Game Objectives Fast

Filling your team with as many top-quality English players as you can will be the most important thing you can do to make these challenges easier for yourself.

Given the requirement to produce both goals and assists consistently with English players, it's best to have an entire team – or at least your entire midfield and forward group – stacked with English players.

As you're building your new squad with an English-themed makeover, there are a plethora of excellent players to choose from to complete an English lineup. Here are some of the best English players available in Ultimate Team, so you can choose cards that will make it easier to complete these objectives:

  • Cole Palmer (Chelsea)
  • Lauren James (Chelsea)
  • Harry Kane (Bayern Munich)
  • Steven Gerrard (Icon)
  • Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)
  • Declan Rice (Arsenal)
  • Wayne Rooney (Icon)
  • Eberichi Eze (Crystal Palace)
  • Phil Foden (Manchester City)
  • Alex Greenwood (Manchester City)
  • Jadon Sancho (Borussia Dortmund)
  • Bobby Charlton (Icon)
  • Chloe Kelly (Manchester City)
  • Ruben Loftus-Cheek (AC Milan)

The list of superb English players to use for this set of objectives goes on and on, but these players should make scoring and assisting incredibly easy.

Once you've decided who makes your starting 11, keep the following goals in mind for your games:

  1. Win 12 matches as quickly as possible.
  2. Score and assist in four separate matches and get eight total goals with English players.
  3. Score three goals from outside the box with any players.

Scoring from outside the box can be challenging, but if you have good English midfielders, it should be easier to score from the edge of the box with those players, rather than trying to force it to happen with your striker, who will be attacking the box.

While completing these objectives won't be quick, there's no major rush to get your scoring done right away since you must play 12 games anyway.

Given that requirement, these tasks should happen organically throughout a dozen matches if you build a strong English lineup.

What Rewards Do You Get From The Alan Shearer Greats Of The Game Challenge?

Once you've put in the time, you'll receive a 93-rated Greats of the Game Alan Shearer card to compensate you for your time. Shearer's set of three excellent Playstyles Plus, Press Proven, Aerial, and Power Shot, are excellent tools to help this striker to score goals in bunches.

While there are many icons in the high-90s at this point in the cycle, the Greats of the Game Alan Shearer is fantastic fodder value at the very minimum.
