James Wilson has targeted more goals as he looks to become an established first-team regular for Manchester United.
The England U20s striker netted his first goal of the season a fortnight ago as the Red Devils defeated QPR by 2-0, following on from the brace he notched on his senior debut against Hull City at the back end of last season.
His latest strike earned him a starting spot for The FA Cup tie at Cambridge United last weekend, and the 19-year-old is hoping for another chance to hit the goal trail against Leicester City on Saturday.
'They say your first goal of the season is probably the toughest one to score'

"They say your first goal of the season is probably the toughest one to score," said Wilson.
"Hopefully that is just my first one and I can keep going game-by-game, getting as many minutes as I can and a few more goals.
"Even in training now I have felt a lot more confident, it has helped me a lot."
It was during Ryan Giggs’ spell as caretaker manager that Wilson was first promoted to the senior squad and although he admitted to ManUtd.com that it took a while to get used to, the youngster says he now feels fully part of the fold.
"The first few weeks were, I suppose, a bit strange because I hadn’t been around the players for long, which is natural - but the lads were all great with me and were constantly speaking to me.
"I would say that I'm a bit of a quiet person anyway, but they've helped me to progress as a person and a footballer.
"The point was probably just after the first two weeks, when I was getting on the bench and making a few appearances. It was then when I thought ‘I’m in the squad now’."
