Fulham striker Dalla Valle delighted with goal scoring Bournemouth debut

Fulham striker Lauri Dalla Valle has made a stunning debut for loan club Bournemouth.

The Finn scored on debut in victory over Oldham Athletic.

"I was delighted to get the goal and it was a very good debut for me," former Liverpool striker Dalla Valle told fulhamfc.com. "We won the game and that was the most important thing. I just want to get as many games under my belt as possible and try to score as many goals as I can.

"I want to help the team. It will be up to the manager whether I start against Exeter. This is the first time I have been on loan and I want to show people what I am capable of. Bournemouth are second in League One and, like me, they are ambitious to progress.

"Before I came here, I didn't know too much about League One or Bournemouth so did some research on the Internet. I know some of the teams in this division like to play the long-ball game but Bournemouth are not one of them. That suits me because I like to play the way they like to play."
