Danny Welbeck

I have played up front for England, been away to tournaments, and scored goals there, so I know once I get into those positions I will put the chances away.

To get a first goal for England was something I've dreamed of since I was a little kid.

People can say I've not scored enough goals, but you see the best strikers on the wing in a four-man midfield and see if they score goals. Nobody can really criticise my finishing because they don't really see me playing in a forward position too often.

You have competition throughout your whole life, and it only makes you better. That competitive edge gives you extra motivation.

It hurts a lot to see United not winning.

It's really important at United that you've been brought up with that winning mentality.

I am never happy if we are not winning.

When I'm on the pitch, I just want to give as good a performance as possible.

Striker is my favourite position, but once I get on the pitch, whether it's out on the wing or in the middle, I just want to enjoy my football and try and produce as good a performance as possible.

Getting injured is a massive setback. When you look back at it, it makes you a better and a stronger person today, but at the time, it's hard to deal with.

Some of the centre-backs are 90 kg. I'm only 70-something kilos - so I need to be strong.

Obviously when a new manager comes in, he's got to instill his own ideas within the team and with his set-up for the games.
