This is going to be the biggest game of my career, although I seem to be saying that a lot lately - especially with England.

The last game against Holland was the biggest game as we had to win it, which we did, now we move on and the France game is upon us and this is the biggest game again.

I didn't play in the last World Cup Qualifier with France in 2002 due to an injury. France progressed to the World Cup. I remember hearing the result come through and I felt sick to my stomach and shed a few tears. My dream was shattered.

I want revenge this time around and I can play a part in it if selected. We have a better and stronger squad and are more experienced in the big games now, and I believe this is our time as a country to put ourselves on the big stage.

Since being away in Russia with Arsenal last week I have had some sleepless nights I've been waking up mid sleep after dreaming of how I am going to feel after the game.

How do I react when the final whistle blows? I see my self exhausted physically falling to the floor with tears of happiness, I cant stop sobbing as we have done it, we have won the game.

All the team is running around jumping up in the air cuddling and screaming but I can't move im physically and emotionally gone but so happy. Another dream I have had is the game is 0-0 its 90 plus minutes and france are throwing everything forward, we keep clearing our lines it seems like a life time then the referee blows the whistle and we qualify.

The celebrations are amazing and my dream has come true. I believe these dreams will be a reality come Saturday night.
