http://home.skysports.com/list.aspx?hlid=408198 Wright-Phillips raring to go By Lewis Rutledge - Created on 6 Aug 2006 Chelsea winger Shaun Wright-Phillips is targeting an improved season at Stamford Bridge. The 24-year-old struggled to establish himself for The Blues last term and regularly found himself left out of the 16-man squad entirely. He has been linked with a move away from the Premiership champions but, following a lively display in the pre-season friendly against MLS All-Stars on Saturday, he is looking forward to the new campaign with a renewed sense of optimism. "I can't wait to start," he said. "This has been a long wait. We have been training a lot since July 17 and we're all really excited and looking forward to it. I feel as fit as I have in a long time. This is my first full season with the lads and I'm loving every minute of it." Wright-Phillips' poor form cost him a place in England's World Cup squad this summer but he has insisted that he will emerge from the disappointment a stronger player. "I was a bit down missing the World Cup but every single season is important for me," he commented. "I will handle this season in the way I handle every season. I'm just looking forward to the fight and competition. "When you have a setback you dig deeper and find something within yourself. That's what I have been doing. Life in general doesn't always have to be about football. It has helped me mature and become a bigger and better person. Not all things went the way I planned and it's down to me to change that all around." Wright-Phillips has set his sights on becoming a regular starter under Jose Mourinho, and is confident that he can nail down a place in the team. "The challenge for me is exciting but the whole thing can make me a better player and I am looking forward to the battle," he said. "I believe in myself which is the main thing. Jose brought me in for a reason and I joined the club for a reason. "I don't have anything to prove. I will play the way I always play which brought me to the club in the first place and that will be good enough with the stuff I have learned as well." Wright-Phillips admits he has been helped by the atmosphere within the Chelsea camp. "We are a team and it's not about any individual and we all do things together. We are like a family," he claimed. "We are all looking forward to the season and the challenge ahead." -- ╔══╗╔╗╔╗╔══╗╔╗ ╔══╗╔══╗╔══╗ ║╔═╝║╚╝║║╔═╝║║ ║╔═╝║╔═╝║╔╗║ ║║ ║╔╗║║╔═╝║║ ╚═╗║║╔═╝║╚╝║ ║╚═╗║║║║║╚═╗║╚═╗╔═╝║║╚═╗║╔╗║ ╚══╝╚╝╚╝╚══╝╚══╝╚══╝╚══╝╚╝╚╝ --
