Manchester United loanee Tahith Chong says he is aiming to break into the Werder Bremen starting line up after his recent goal scoring heroics.
Dutch winger Chong left United on a season-long loan in the summer transfer window as headed to Germany to sign for Bremen.
The 20-year-old shone for his new side in pre-season but has been mainly utilised from the bench since the new Bundesliga campaign started last month.
Chong lined up for Bremen in a 4-1 loss to Hertha Berlin on the first day of the season but had to settle for a place on the bench in the following three matches.
The youngster was restored to the starting XI for Bremen's 4-1 over FC St. Pauli in a friendly on Wednesday and repaid manager Florian Kohfeldt with a well-taken brace.
Chong insists he is happy to even be on the bench most weeks in the Bundesliga but the United youngster reiterated his main ambition is to become a regular starter.
"It’s always nice to score, especially as an attacker, but I’ve already said plenty of times that I can’t score without my teammates," Chong said after the game. "For the second goal, Maxi’s [Eggestein] pass left me completely free – they all make it really easy for me.
"Obviously I would prefer to start matches, but I will still give it my all when coming off the bench. I’m a really patient guy and I will try to keep improving and helping the team.”
