Chelsea ace Eden Hazard is eager to prove to the world that the West London club still remain one of the biggest in England.
The Belgian international struggled for form last season, which saw the Blues finish a lowly tenth in the league, and has a point to prove to under new manager Antonio Conte.
"It is hard training but we have to be ready for the season," Hazard said.
"It is good. The manager talks a lot with the players, we are here to prepare tactically and we have some games to play. I hope we will see after 10 days what we need to have.
"It is completely different from last summer. After the Euros we didn't get a lot of holiday and we are not ready yet but we are almost ready and we can't wait for the season to start. We need to show to everybody that we are Chelsea, we are big players and a big team."
