Quote of the day

"To work with the Beckhams and Rauls of this world is unbelievable. The fact they're taking instructions from me on how to play passes is ridiculous, I have to pinch myself. But while you're doing it, you have to look authoritative".

Ex Southend and Brentford striker Andy Ansah talks about his role working on 'Goal!' to ensure the realism of the football scenes. I remember seeing him play for Southend at St James's once - utterly, utterly useless. As the article concludes: "Truly, this is fantasy football".

'Goal!' opens nationwide on Friday.
