"It is quite tight, there is not as much attacking and it is difficult to score a goal. It is a slightly different Premiership I have come back to from Spain.

"Early indications this year are that there have not been so many Premiership goals - maybe that is of some concern."

"The goal at Blackburn wasn't a relief at all. I am confident about scoring goals in whatever team I play in - I've done it all my life - so I am not relieved to get off the mark at all.

"But I am relieved to get the first three points of the season, so it is a big relief to get off the mark in that sense."
