Newcastle striker Leon Best is hopefully over his injury nightmare and can now concentrate on making his mark with the Magpies. The 24-year-old has had an injury-free start to the new campaign and has extended his goalscoring tally to eight in 10 Premier League starts for the club.
He said: "I have not played that many Premier League games, but it's good for me because the games I have played I have scored in.
"It's a good ratio for me and I intend keeping that goals-to-games ratio the same.
"I have had no injuries, touch wood, and got some goals as well, so I am very confident."
Best and his fellow strikers spent much of the summer expecting a big name signing that never happened.
However, Best insists he was unfazed by the speculation and just carried on with the job of ensuring he was ready to take his chance when it came along.
He said: "You have just got to get on with it, that's part of football. Whoever is coming to the club, they are coming to make the club better and make the team stronger."
