"I want to create, score goals and make things happen. I'll keep working to try to make it happen.
"I'm loving it as an Everton player. The boys are great and everyone is so nice here. I want to help us get as many wins as possible.
"That's my only aim – to help us get as many wins as we can. We want to get European football and it's still a possibility for us.
"The fans are top, they're really good people. It's a passionate environment and I love feeling that every time I step on the pitch. I want to play for them."
Speaking following his side’s 2-2 with Brentford earlier this month, Blues boss David Moyes said he believes George is a young player who will continue to develop.

He said: “He's got good control, he wants to score, I like that, and you saw that today.
“He wants to try and score and that was important for me because I think wide players nowadays, we're asking [a lot of] them.
“We rely a lot on Ili Ndiaye, I'm sure Brentford rely a lot on [Kevin] Schade and their wide players as well.
“I think being a wide player now, you've got to have a contribution with goals and assists. He's a young boy who will obviously continue to develop, I've got no doubt about that.”
