"She came in from Barcelona and had a great impact on the team, on a personal level and also with how we play," she told BBC Radio 5 Live.There will no doubt be mixed emotions for Caldentey when she faces Barcelona in Lisbon.

She was "underrated" but "now finally appreciated" by those in Spain, said Tikas, but will she come back to haunt them?"When we talked to Barca players after the semi-finals, they were really happy to face Mariona and said it will be really special for them," Tikas added."She knows how Barcelona play and how Arsenal can damage Barcelona."

Caldentey has spoken to some of the Barcelona players - they remain "close friends" after all - but they have avoided speaking about the final."We did exchange some messages but it is a bit weird so we didn't speak too much about [the game]," she added.

"I didn't tell them [we would win] but they know that is what I want!"

From Arsenal's perspective, they hope Caldentey's close links with Barca will give them an advantage.Last year, the UK's armed forces were losing 300 more full-time personnel each month than they'd been recruiting.

In a MoD survey last year nearly six in ten military personnel rated morale as low. Just four in 10 said they were satisfied with service life – the lowest since records began.This government is trying to boost morale by improving military accommodation, plus last year's pay rise of 6% for armed forces personnel was the largest in two decades.

Part of the problem is a broader cultural one: fewer people have an emotional connection with the armed forces, Crump says. The average Briton is now more likely to know someone in jail than serving in the military, he adds.Last year, the Army apologised to Kerry-Ann Knight, a black female soldier who fronted Army recruitment campaigns, after she described years of racist abuse and bullying that made her life while serving a "living hell".
