   I liked this book because I read it last night and I liked the surprise that Ben was in year 7 because I thought he was probably in Year 5.

   Ben is playing really well at United, he’s scoring loads of goals!But having to hide and lie about a huge secret,is tough to keep.Someone needs to find out about his secret before it’s to late.Can his coach find out before it’s to late?
