Middlesbrough striker Mido is determined to show supporters what he is made of when the new Premier League season starts.
But he told the club's official website: "Last season was obviously a big disappointment for me but there were lots of factors that were out of my control.
"I am putting my injuries behind me now and I am determined to do the best I possibly can for the team in the new season. I have lost a lot of weight and I feel as though I am getting close to peak fitness.
"I think Boro fans will be really surprised when they see just what great shape I am in.
"I cannot wait for the new season to begin. I want to establish myself as a key part of the side and I believe I can make a big difference to the team's fortunes."
