How to see all plugins with goals invoked when calling maven?

I want to perform this command:

mvn deploy

However, I want to see all plugins called and on which phase of the build they are called.

To achieve this, I imagine this command:

mvn --simulate-only --show-phase-plugins deploy

Well those switches don't exist.

How can I tell Maven to do so?

Maven 3.0.4

You could use help plugin 

mvn help:describe -Dcmd=compile

It will produce output like that:

...
[INFO] [help:describe]
[INFO] 'compile' is a phase corresponding to this plugin:
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:compile

It is a part of the lifecycle for the POM packaging 'jar'. This lifecycle includes the following phases:
* validate: NOT DEFINED
* initialize: NOT DEFINED
* generate-sources: NOT DEFINED
* process-sources: NOT DEFINED
* generate-resources: NOT DEFINED
* process-resources: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:resources
* compile: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:compile
* process-classes: NOT DEFINED
* generate-test-sources: NOT DEFINED
* process-test-sources: NOT DEFINED
* generate-test-resources: NOT DEFINED
* process-test-resources: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:testResources
* test-compile: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:testCompile
* process-test-classes: NOT DEFINED
* test: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:test
* package: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:jar
* pre-integration-test: NOT DEFINED
* integration-test: NOT DEFINED
* post-integration-test: NOT DEFINED
* verify: NOT DEFINED
* install: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:install
* deploy: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-deploy-plugin:deploy
