On-loan striker pleased to mark Blades debut with a goal

Will Hoskins wants to focus on playing regular football during his loan at Sheffield United rather than worrying about a potential permanent move. The striker joined the Blades from Brighton & Hove Albion on deadline day and marked his debut with a goal in Saturday's 3-0 win over Wycombe Wanderers. Hoskins had started only two games in the Championship for Brighton this season after joining Gus Poyet's side from Bristol Rovers last summer. Blades boss Danny Wilson has already hinted he may try to keep Hoskins in the long term if the club win promotion, but the 25-year-old is happy to take his time regarding his future. "I couldn't have wished for a better start," said Hoskins. "I want to be playing and scoring but promotion is the aim. You can see the quality here after training with the lads and United will be up there at the end of the season. "It's not crossed my mind about moving here permanently. It's a great club but Brighton is a great club and I love it. "I just want to play and things will sort themselves out."
