Dan Gosling hoping for more opportunities

Newcastle United's Dan Gosling is hoping to gain more playing time for the Magpies next season.

The 22-year-old found starting opportunities hard to come by last season because of injuries and the form of fellow midfielders Yohan Cabaye and Cheick Tiote.

Despite admitting that a lack of action has left him a little frustrated, Gosling has insisted that he is not looking for a switch away from the Sports Direct Arena.

"I just want to get more time on the pitch," he told the Evening Chronicle. "I still love it here. It's a great club to be at.

"This club will always attract players but hopefully my opportunity will come."

Gosling joined Newcastle on a free transfer from Everton in 2010.
