But now I'm feeling good, it's just about time and getting fit because they have had a good pre-season so they are definitely in a different physical shape, so I have to get used [to it] again. But it's nice to be out there. [...] We have been working a lot in the gym, on my structure. It's hard to explain it but as I said, now I'm feeling good and for me that's the most important thing. Yeah, hopefully. That's the idea [to be available for the beginning of the season]. As I said, I need to work on my physical shape and get used again to the level of the boys. But I'm feeling really, really good, training with the team and I'm pretty sure I'm going to be fine for the beginning of the season and hopefully for the [Community Shield] as well."
