Fletcher eyes more goals

Mon, 21 Sep 11:58:04 2009

Darren Fletcher is determined to maintain his goalscoring hot streak after his crucial double at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The Manchester United midfielder contributed a couple of far post headers to the Red Devils' sensational 4-3 victory over Manchester City.

It opened Fletcher's account for the season and was the first time he had scored two in a game since February 2008.

"I am pleased to get those goals because I have missed a few very easy chances earlier in the season," he said.

"It is nice to get a couple to get me on my way. Now I have to try and get a few more."

  3. pegez, it's the same with Shay Given..... He never­ performs half as well for Ireland as he does for­ Newcastle/Man City.
    But thrilled to see Darren off the­ mark this season. I just hope fergie has the confidence­ in him to stick him in the first team week in week out.
