Newcastle United winger Andros Townsend aiming for more goals

By , Staff Reporter
Newcastle United winger Andros Townsend hopes that his goals can help the club stay in the Premier League.

Newcastle United winger Andros Townsend has claimed that he hopes to score more goals with the aim of retaining the club's Premier League status.

Townsend scored his first goal since April 2015 at the weekend, but it was little consolation as the Magpies suffered a 5-1 defeat to Chelsea.

The England international joined Newcastle from Tottenham Hotspur last month for a £12m fee.

"I'm just delighted to be back playing Premier League football, regardless of the result," Townsend told reporters. "I've not really played consistently for a long, long time. Saturday was my third Premier League game on the bounce. Three 90 minutes in a row.

"On a personal level it's positive and I can't wait now to get better, score more goals and help Newcastle stay in the Premier League, which is the main aim."

Newcastle are currently in the bottom three of the table due to an inferior goal difference.
