Ricardo Carvalho says the Chelsea dressing room is full of confidence ahead of the new season.

The centre-back said: "Confidence is high because we have great players and it is important for us to carry on winning every match and win more trophies.

"We have all the conditions here at this club that we need to improve and win trophies for the club, which is important, both for the club and ourselves, because everyone feels better when we win.

"We have the quality and we are expecting trophies this season. We have had a good pre-season and I look forward to starting for real now."
