June 16 Chelsea captain Rees James started preparations for the Club World Cup in Philadelphia. Although the weather is a bit cold, the team has already conducted its first training and the new players have quickly integrated into the team. The team is in high morale and everyone is eager to achieve good results in this game.

James said: We returned to Philadelphia, although the cold here surprised me! I had my first training today and it felt very fresh. But we didn't complain, we knew the weather would get hotter after going to Atlanta. It feels great to go back to the grass with your teammates to practice again, and there are a few new faces. The training intensity is very high, which is exactly what we need and I like. The morale of the

team is very high, which is the result of the performance at the end of the season. We qualified for the Champions League and won the UEFA Champions League, which helped us a lot. We all want to experience the feeling of victory again and we all want to win more honors for the club. That's why everyone is eager to do a great job in this game. We hope to go further and show everyone our strength. The new players are all high-level players and they quickly adapt to the pace. Some people have met some teammates in other clubs before, which helps them get in more quickly.

As captain, it is my duty to make sure they adapt and understand what Chelsea wants. I am very much looking forward to this competition and it will bring us new challenges. We will encounter some teams and players that we don’t usually encounter in Europe, and I think this is a huge positive factor for the game. This is an opportunity to compete with clubs around the world and we want to show everyone our strength. Of course, we will also encounter some familiar faces in the group stage, Giroud of Los Angeles FC and Jorginho of Flamengo.

We spent many great times together at Chelsea and made history, so it was always fun to see them. I wish them all the best in the summer, except when they are against us! For us, everything will begin on Monday. We want to continue moving in the right direction. To do this, we need to make sure we are ready and achieve the results we need. It will be tough, but we are ready.
