Shearer was quick to speak out on social media.
Alan Shearer made a brutal remark over Alexander Isak during the Premier League clash between Liverpool and Bournemouth.
Isak has been persistently linked with a move from Newcastle to Liverpool over the summer, with the Reds seeing a bid worth £110 million rejected earlier this month.
According to the latest reports from the Daily Mail's Craig Hope, Isak will not play for Newcastle when they take on Aston Villa on Saturday as transfer speculation continues.
It is claimed the Swede is 'on strike' after demanding a move to Anfield.
The Magpies have identified PSG's Goncalo Ramos and Brentford's Yoane Wissa as dual targets to replace Isak, having missed out on Hugo Ekitike to Liverpool.
Ekitike put Liverpool 1-0 up in the first half with a clinical close range finish, before assisting Cody Gakpo for the Reds' second goal shortly after the interval.
And Shearer was quick to post on Twitter to praise Ekitike - while sending a subtle message to Isak.
He wrote: "Surely any forward thinking of going to Liverpool, will be having second thoughts now having to play second fiddle to the brilliant Ekitike all season?"

The Newcastle legend captioned the post with a winking-face emoji.
While Shearer may have been impressed with Liverpool going forward, their defensive play in the second half was not as exemplary.
Antoine Semenyo made it 2-1 to Bournemouth on 64 minutes, before a superb solo goal from the Ghanaian equalised for the Cherries just 12 minutes later.
The Reds have strengthened significantly in defence this summer, with full-backs Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez - who both started at Anfield - joined by Friday centre-back arrival Giovanni Leoni from Parma.
Both Frimpong and Kerkez were substituted by Arne Slot before Liverpool conceded their first goals of the season at Anfield.
