Shearer scored a hat-trick on his debut for Southampton v Arsenal, Arsenal were in the top flight then so I would assume Southampton were too

I would assume that they would not refer to anyone who played full international games as a former under 21 international so I would think that would rule out Shearer and any other full international players
