The 22-year-old forward netted a double as
well as Robin van Persie to ensure the Premier
League champions got off to a perfect start
under their new manager David Moyes believes Danny Welbeck "deserves the headlines" after scoring twice in Manchester United's 4-1 victory over Swansea City. The 22-year-old's double, along with two goals
from Robin van Persie, secured three points
for United in David Moyes' first Premier League
game in charge since taking over from Sir Alex
Ferguson.
"I think Danny Welbeck might deserve those headlines. He scored one goal last year and
now he's got two right away, it'll do his
confidence a lot of good. He got in a great
position for the first one," Moyes told
talkSPORT.
"The goal for England in midweek, unfortunately against Scotland, did help him.
Overall his second goal was a brilliant finish."
Moyes has played down the impact of an
opening-day victory against Michael Laudrup's
side, insisting his inherited players have
maintained their winning mentality. "It was another day at the office and I just had
to get on and do the job and try make sure we
got a result. It's one game gone. If we had lost
today there might have been people talking,"
Moyes continued.
"I'm not shouting about the position we're in. The players are not singing and dancing in the
changing rooms because they win here and
that's what they have done today."
