Anthony Martial says he is determined to score more close-range goals as he looks to take on more responsibility in leading the attack.

The Frenchman has been out injured since the match with Crystal Palace but is back in training and could hopefully be back in contention for the big game against Liverpool after the international break.

In a feature interview with the new issue of Inside United, conducted before the Palace game, he discussed all aspects of the art of goalscoring and made it clear that he can add more scruffy strikes to his game, to go with any spectacular finishes.

The predatory effort against Chelsea, on the opening day of the season, was just the sort of goal his manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, would have been proud of and there is an understanding from the 23-year-old he should be able to contribute more of these strikes as a no.
