Danny Welbeck: 'I need more goals next season'

Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck admits that he must score more goals next season.

Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck has admitted that he must improve his goal tally next season.

The England international ended this campaign with just two goals in all competitions, and actually scored more goals for his country.

The 22-year-old said he has been played in different positions in the United team, but knows that it will benefit him in the long term.

"Overall there have been improvements in my game and I've been more consistent," said Welbeck. "But I've been playing on the wing, which has inhibited my ability to get into goalscoring positions.

"I've played up front for England, been away to tournaments and scored goals there, so I know once I get into those positions, I'll put chances away.

"I'm happy to help the team out, and it doesn't really matter whether I'm playing on the wing or up front, I should have had a much better goal return."

Welbeck made 40 appearances for United last season.
