Ben Watson

Crystal Palace star Ben Watson admits he's hungry for more goals after scoring the winner against Colchester.

The midfielder, 22, took his tally to three for the season in the 2-1 triumph when he converted Ashley-Paul Robinson's cross.

Now Watson, who has eight assists for the Eagles this term, is eager to improve on his goal tally by the end of the season.

He said: "I could have had a hat-trick against Colchester. I got one which is my first for a while and hopefully in the last nine games I can get a few more.

"I've not scored for a while and the gaffer is always on about midfielders scoring goals so it was nice to get on the end of it.

"Everyone wants to score more goals. I think of late I've looked like scoring goals, getting in the positions where before I wasn't. I probably need to work on the finishing."
