Shearer held on Premier League Productions: “Things that Leicester have done well have come from him [Lookman]. He has been involved in all of them.”
“To go short and then go long and with the conditions that obviously are very difficult, he has made the most of that. He has been a real plus point.”
The striker who came third in both Ballon d’Or and FIFA World Player of the 1996 awards also said amidst his talk about Leicester goal: “You’re looking to open them up with a quality pass and to get not only one but two and Lookman who I feel was their best player on the day is in there to finish it off.”
