Walsall's latest new recruit, 18-year-old West Ham United midfielder George Dobson, who has arrived at the Banks's Stadium on a season-long loan, has spoken to club journalists and has discussed his delight as he has the opportunity to gain some much-needed first-team football.

Speaking via the Hammers' official website WHUFC.com, George said; “I can’t wait to get started. It’s a massive opportunity for me and one I’m really excited about and I just hope I can get as many games under my belt as possible.

“Playing in League One is a big step up, but one I’m confident I can adapt to. Last season Walsall finished third, so you can see the ambition and the talent is there.

“I had a full season with the U21s last season which was very good, I enjoyed it a lot and now I feel ready for the next step. My plan was to go out on loan at some point this year, I just didn’t know when. Now it’s happened, I can’t wait to get started.”
