Allan Saint-Maximin says he has no problems taking on the responsibility of bringing confidence to the Newcastle United starting line-up.
The majestic Frenchman lashed home a wonder goal at the Leazes End before laying a simple goal on for Callum Wilson.
Saint-Maximin was forced off with an injury, but should be fine after the international break.
The Toon star, speaking after the 3-1 win against Burnley, said: "I try to do my best for my team.
"It was really important to win this game against a really great Burnley team. I’m happy to win this game and give my team more confidence.
"I moved into the centre in the second half. I like to play number 10 because I’m close to the goal. It gives me more opportunities to score."
And when asked about his goal he said: "I saw a lot of players in front of me.
"I tried to dribble, because that’s the way I play. I’m really happy to score this goal for my team today."
"For me it’s also really good when I score or give assists and my team wins. I was really happy to give this assist for Callum. It’s the perfect night tonight."
Saint-Maximin suggested his withdrawal was more of a precautionary measure.
Talking to Sky Sports he said: "I feel pain but that’s the Premier League. You get some kicks but you have to keep going.
"I was injured against Brighton and when I started the game I got a kick, so I started feeling it again."
