Newcastle midfielder Sissoko: I'm not good enough in front of goal

Newcastle United midfielder Momo Sissoko wants to improve his quality in front of goal.

Sissoko has been deployed as an attacking midfielder during his time at Newcastle - but he does not see himself playing in that role long-term.

"The main thing I lack is that I miss too many opportunities, I spoil it, I rush it," he explained.

"I was criticised for that at Toulouse, and there are also the critics at Newcastle. I score quite rarely considering the opportunities I get. I just have to take my time and be more accurate, be less powerful."
