fast forward

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'playing option every football club' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'would like?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'would' could be 'd' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'd' is located in the answer.
'like?' could be 'as' and 'as' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fast forward that I've seen before include "move on quickly" , "control" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
