PREMIER - Charlie Taylor: ''I think I need to contribute more to our goals''

Fullback for Burnley Charlie Taylor is well aware of the need to enhance his offensive production.
Since arriving at Turf Moor in the summer of 2017, the 28-year-old has yet to score, and his one assist this season matches his previous three seasons' solitary efforts.
“I think I need to contribute more to our goals, either assists or even scoring myself," he said ahead of the midweek trip to Wolves.
“I've been here four-and-a-half years now and I've yet to score.
“It is something I'm definitely trying to do more, getting involved in goals and assists.
“The manager is always on at me on the sidelines to get forward as much as possible.
“I think the position of a full-back has definitely changed over the last few years, it has become the popular position to be now because of players like Andy Robertson and the world-class full-backs we have in this league now.
“It's a position where you are hugely involved in the game in attack and you have all your defensive responsibilities as well.
“Obviously our style is slightly different to teams in the 'Big Six' so I have to accept that is how it is going to be, but the manager is always on at me on the sidelines to get forward as much as possible."
