George John has returned to FC Dallas following his loan spell with West Ham United and is excited about the impending MLS season.
The 24-year old defender spent six weeks with the English Champions outfit but is glad he can now focus on things in Texas ahead of the home season opener against New York Red Bulls this weekend.
"I'm in Frisco, Texas and it's beautiful. It's good [to be back]. I'm used to these training sessions, so I'm feeling good.""Yeah, it's nice. I got in Sunday night and was able to come in yesterday. Team had a day off and was able to do a physical. Here today on the training field and feel great," John told ESPN.
And John, who was previously a target for Premier League outfit Blackburn Rovers, gave more insight as to how the loan spell with the Hammers came about.
"Got permission from the club to go and Dan Hunt and the league, I really thank them for allowing me to have this opportunity. It was great, very much an eye opener for me, spending two months there.
"It's tough to really get settled when you're living in a hotel the whole time but still the team opened up to me. They were really kind. It was a great two months but I'm back here and focused on FC Dallas now.""It was an opportunity that came up last second. Everybody around me really encouraged me to do it," he added.
