Alan Hansen

I hear people saying 'the way the game should be played'. Rubbish. That's the worst saying in football. You win the game, then worry about the way it should be played.

The scar on my forehead is from running through a plate-glass panel when I was 15. I had 27 stitches, which took two hours.

I was born in a mining village, and you either played football or played football. If you didn't play, there was something wrong with you.

I don't think they're going to pay me to play Mufasa.

I see a lot of actors for whom life becomes one big schedule. I guess I try to be more sensitive to my private life - to take a breath of fresh air and be in the countryside or on a golf course.

I've always said that if I could do anything in the world, I would be a professional golfer.
