"I do favour a central striking role, but the two boys playing up front are doing well and I'll have to make do with that for now," he admitted, speaking to Teamtalk.com.
"I'm happy to play there but I know I have quite a lot of improving to do and I know I can improve. I'm doing quite a bit of work on my left-foot shooting and cutting in from the right."
