Football FanCast columnist Matt Reveley reflects on the ambition and belief of Arsene Wenger ahead of tonight's Champions League quarter final first leg, and wonders whether the journey has only just begun.

Four games that may decide a season and, according to Arsenal's professor, four matches that may define a career; "This will be the highest challenge for me" commented the Arsenal manager, who has been replaying the Champions League final defeat to Barcelona continuously in preparation for this season's quarter final with their English counterparts.

Football FanCast columnist Matt Reveley responds to Steven Gerrard's remarks regarding the motivational climate within the Arsenal and Liverpool camps ahead of tomorrow's mouth-watering tie.

I don't know whether the Liverpool captain was acknowledging today's calendar activities with his latest comments on Wednesday's all-English Champions League quarter-final first leg, but you can't help doubting the sincerity in his voice when he reflects that Arsenal's remaining hope for the Premier League title could disrupt their psychological outlook of tomorrow's encounter at the Emirates.

Watford FanCast presenter Matt Reveley discusses how Watford may be keen to have the last laugh on Rob Styles.

Okay, so the trip to Devon was relatively archetypal of our season, and tomorrow's encounter with the only team seemingly happy to win promotion does not provide us with much optimism for a three-pointed weekend. But take yourself back two weeks and, I feel, a man in the middle may be the catalyst that the Golden Boys have so desperately craved.  

Football FanCast columnist Matt Reveley looks ahead to Fabio Capello's second game in charge of the Three Lions in Paris this evening and wonders if the fear of failure is finally about to evaporate from within the England camp.  

As the snow fell down on England's London Colney training ground, the Three Lions squad continued their practise under the watchful eye of their no-nonsense Italian coach; until he rudely interrupted that was: "Why can't you play like this for your country? As soon as you play in front of 80,000 people you play with fear - why can you play like this in training and not in a match situation?" Now I don't know about you but I've been screaming such questions at TV's and at Wembley for at least last ten years. What surprises me however is the fact that it seems Don Capello is the first man to realise such a differentiation between our players training and representing their country.
