Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer brands the club's current plight of seven Premier League games without a win as embarrassing.

Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has admitted that he fears for the club's Premier League status.

The Magpies suffered their seventh straight defeat when they lost 3-2 at home to Swansea City on Saturday, which leaves them five points clear of the relegation zone.

Shearer believes that the players need to take some responsibility for the team's recent plight.

"Have no doubts about it - Newcastle are now in real danger of going down," the former England striker told The Sun.

"I didn't think so until Saturday but after that performance I can't actually say with any certainty that we will get another point this season.

"Why don't the Newcastle players start taking some responsibility? Because right now they are an embarrassment."

Shearer played for Newcastle between 1996 and 2006 before managing them briefly in 2009.
