Manchester United manager David Moyes has revealed that he was quickly informed of Danny Welbeck's importance to the club upon his arrival at Old Trafford.
Welbeck scored just twice in 39 matches for United last season, but Moyes has insisted that the 22-year-old will have a part to play next season.
The 50-year-old told reporters: "When I arrived at the club, I was informed of how important Danny's been, and how important he will be in the future.
"We will give him the opportunities, because he has got the chance to get a few games now, and hopefully the goals will follow.
"He had a couple of chances the other night, but it would be worse if he wasn't getting any at all, but hopefully we will starting taking one or two of them and give him the confidence that he needs to go on a run of scoring goals."
The England international has scored 19 goals in 102 appearances for the Premier League champions.
