TUESDAY JUL 24
Well, its been a very busy ten days since we arrived in LA, but we're settling in nicely, and you'll be glad to know that my first few training sessions went well.
It was great to finally train with my new team mates and get involved with all the team camaraderie, although with my ankle injury I have had to take it easy.
Fortunately, I got to play against Chelsea on Saturday, which was a great experience.
I received an amazing reception when I stepped onto the pitch at the Depot Center.
It was incredible to get out onto the pitch and it was also great to see a few of the England lads who play for Chelsea.
I have to say thank you to the fans who came to watch the game.
It was really nice to make my debut in such an exciting atmosphere and I hope this will be the way soccer games continue in America.
I'd also like to say a big thank you to a couple of our good friends out here who threw an amazing party for Victoria and myself on Sunday night.
I'm sure you've read about it already in the news section of the website and in the papers but it really was a fantastic evening and meeting so many people made us both feel incredibly welcome.
Anyway, back to training now…
Take care,
David
