Ant Middleton has promised to slim down for \'Soccer Aid\'.
The \'SAS: Who Dares Wins\' star wants "to be a bit more agile" on the pitch for the charity football game - which takes place at Old Trafford in Manchester on June 6 - and he\'s ready to give everything for the team.
He told The Sun newspaper\'s Bizarre TV column: "Last year was nerve-wracking, I wanted to take a back seat, and now I\'m raring to go.
"I want to implement a lot of my leadership skills now. I\'m going to be forceful this year - we\'ve got to get that trophy back.
"I\'ll be starting this year, after just being on during the second half. I\'m going to lose a bit of weight, as I want to be a bit more agile. I\'m training with my local football team."
The former soldier - who will line up for the England team - is ready to take on a leading role in the dressing room, and he admitted he "hates losing".
He added: "I\'ll be doing a motivational speech and pep talks to rile the team up. I come from a competitive background and I hate losing."
However, he\'ll still get in the spirit of the game - which raises money each year for Unicef - and he\'s looking forward to a post-match drink.
He quipped: "Once we win the trophy, I\'ll have a beer or two."
Ant is part of an England team made up of musicians Olly Murs and Danny Jones; women\'s footballers Casey Stoney and Kelly Smith; and comedians Lee Mack, Tom Davis, Joel Dommett, and Russell Howard.
They will face a World XI team featuring Olympian Usain Bolt, comedian Mo Gilligan, and footballers Patrice Evra, Jaap Stam and Roberto Carlos.
