Like father, like son

The Mail on Sunday's Ian Stafford talks to Saracens fly-half Owen Farrell about his ambition to emulate his father and get an England cap.

"Owen Farrell knows all too well the sporting characteristic he has inherited most from his famous father, former England star and now backs coach Andy Farrell.

'I've got Dad's big mouth,' admitted Farrell junior. 'You could always hear him on the pitch.

'There would be 20,000 people in the stands at Wigan, but you could still hear him giving orders and leading people. I'd like to think I'm the same'."
