Danny Welbeck on Arsenal and his favourite playing position

By

Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck says he can be a lethal striker for both club and country.

The Englishman was twice on target for Roy Hodgson's side against Switzerland this week and is confident he can add to his tally if given the chance to play in a more central role.

"It is well known I prefer to play through the middle so when I get my opportunity I just want to show what I can do," Welbeck told FIFA.com.

"Once I get into the box and get the opportunities I have got faith in my ability.

"Before I wasn't getting into the box because I wasn't playing too much as a striker and I had to worry about my defensive work.

"Listen, anyone can say what they want to say but I just know once I get the opportunity and a run of games up front I will do my best.

"That's definitely what I need. It is good for any footballer to get a run of games.

"You become more confident and play much more at ease and to get a run of games would be absolutely perfect."

The 23-year-old is set to start for Arsenal when they host Manchester City on Saturday and is eager to open his account for the Gunners.

He added: "That is my first 90 minutes this season so it is just the start of things and really looking forward to it."
