The Blues began the 2010/11 campaign in imperious fashion, thumping West Brom and Wigan 6-0 en route to winning their first five matches.
A dramatic loss of form in November and December proved costly to their hopes of winning the title, but Malouda recognises the importance of once again making a fast start.
"In pre-season, individually and as a group, everybody has to be focused on our training and we have to get back to full fitness because we have to start well," the French midfielder told the club's official website.
"We know we start in the Premier League with an away game and we know we have to be in condition to win that game and to try to be on top of the league from the beginning."
