Meet Chelsea's new USA stars: From San Diego Surf to 'Lie-cester Square'... Mia Fishel and Catarina Macario are throwing themselves into London life as they gear up for 'intense' WSL

‘You’ve set us up to fail!’ Mia Fishel laughs as she and Chelsea team-mate Catarina Macario try their best to pronounce London tube stations.

‘Lie-cester square?’

‘Not quite.’

‘Lad-broke Grove?’

‘Lad-brook Grove’

Mia Fishel (L) and Catarina Macario (R) are Chelsea's newest recruits from San Diego

The pair played together on youth side San Diego Surf forging a bond that has taken them both to west London (Macario - back row, third from right; Fishel - front row right)

‘Marly-le-bone?’

‘Mah-lee-bun.’

‘What?’

It quickly becomes clear the Blues’ two new American stars are not going to get the hang of this.
