Willian aware of need for more goals

Willian believes that he must improve on his ability to score goals if he is to play regularly for Chelsea.

Willian has admitted that he must score more goals if he is to be a key member of the Chelsea team this season.

The Brazilian was forced to start Monday's 3-1 victory over Burnley on the bench, and he believes that adding a clinical edge to his game in the final third of the pitch will allow him to edge out his rivals for a spot in the side.

Eden Hazard, Oscar and Andre Schurrle were picked to provide support for Diego Costa, despite Jose Mourinho choosing to use Willian regularly last season.

"I think I have to score more goals, to play better and just be better," the 26-year-old told members of the media. "Last season I did good, not bad, but I want more."

Willian scored four goals in 42 appearances in all competitions last season.
