Carl Jenkinson has insisted that his main aim this season is to play as many games as possible during a loan spell at West Ham United.
The 23-year-old returned to Upton Park on Tuesday on a season-long loan from Arsenal following his temporary stint in the 2014-15 campaign.
The full-back has admitted that his love for football returned when he was playing for the Hammers.
"I just want to play as much football as I can," Jenkinson told the club's official website. "To be honest, last season was the first I played every week and I'm a different person on and off the pitch. I found my love for the game again and you forget how much that means to you.
"I want to do that again. I want to play as much football as I can and develop as much as I can as a player. Confidence, everything grows when you're playing and you find out more about yourself as a player and a person. I really enjoyed it and of course it's something I want to continue to do."
Jenkinson started more than 30 games for West Ham last season.
