3. He's A Footballer (When He Feels Like It)

Just when you thought you couldn't be any more jealous of Statham, he can also boast having 'footballer' on his CV.

Statham's teammates included Ralf Little and Robbie Williams, as well as ex-international footballers Vinnie Jones, Frank Leboeuf and Alexi Lalas.
