More quotes by Andrew Flintoff

Andrew Flintoff
I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to facing Brett Lee again. He bowls at 95mph so enjoyment is not the word I would use.

Andrew Flintoff
I've read a lot of Irvine Welsh - Trainspotting, Glue - he's written some beauties.
Andrew Flintoff
I always listen to music before I go out to bat. Any track, really, just whatever I feel like at the time.
Andrew Flintoff
I have a varied taste, I'll listen to anything. Well, not anything, no techno.
Andrew Flintoff
I'm comfortable in the way I play and comfortable in who I am.
Andrew Flintoff
Personally I prefer to work things out by feel, by instinct.
Andrew Flintoff
It's far more daunting than bowling to Ricky Ponting or facing Shane Warne
Andrew Flintoff
I'm ugly, I'm overweight, but I'm happy
Andrew Flintoff
While I'm at second slip I'm not just thinking of what I'm going to have for tea. I'm considering the match as well, wondering how I can help, if there is anything I can offer.
Andrew Flintoff
I'm not really superstitious - I don't have any lucky charms or a mascot.
