Cardiff City midfielder Peter Whittingham cannot wait to get Premier League life started.
The 28-year old has been an integral part of helping the Bluebirds become the second Welsh club into England's top flight and is excited about the campaign ahead with last season's Championship winners.
"It'll be a different test for us," he told the club's official website.
"It's going to be a case of working on when to press, when to close down and when to drop off.
"It'll be a tough test, but we're going out to pick up a win at West Ham on opening day."
He added: "It's going to take a little bit of time I suppose because we've not played that many games yet, but we'll be ready for the start of the season."
