As FIFPro launch their Global Player's Council, Chelsea and England's Anita Asante talks about the challenges they want to tackle in women's football, while Anderlecht and Belgium's Vincent Kompany says 'something has to give' to ease the congested fixture calendar in the men's game and insists the make-up of boardrooms must change if football is to address its' racism problem.
