Stevan Jovetic expects to be a key member for Manchester City this season after struggling with injuries during his first 12 months in England.

Stevan Jovetic has insisted that he is ready to make up for lost time at Manchester City following a difficult start to life in England last season.

The 24-year-old forward struggled with injuries after moving to the Etihad Stadium from Fiorentina last summer, but he is expecting to be a key player in Manuel Pellegrini's side in this campaign as City look to retain the Premier League title.

"I don't want to speak about last year, because I have said so many times what happened," Jovetic told members of the media. "I just want to look to the future.

"I am happy to be here and I know that I am going to be an important player for this club, and I am happy to be a part of this team.

"Of course, I am expecting so much from me this season, I expect to score so many goals."

Jovetic was handed a start as City kicked off their campaign with a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United on Sunday.
