Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew believes that Papiss Cisse has similar qualities to that of Magpies legend Alan Shearer.
The Senegal international has made a welcome transition into the famous number nine shirt since moving to the Sports Direct Arena in January.
Pardew has noted that the 26-year-old's performance during Newcastle's 2-0 win over Liverpool on Sunday is reminiscent of the former number nine.
"Cisse was terrific, not just for his two goals [against Liverpool], but for his hold-up play and everything else," Pardew told the Shields Gazette.
"You could've blinked and thought it was Alan [Shearer] – he put that sort of performance in. I couldn't pay him a higher tribute than that."
Newcastle are currently level on points with fifth-placed Chelsea in the Premier League.
