Rhian Brewster has dismissed any concerns or worries about the wait for his first goal of the Championship season, admitting: "I feel like it's coming".

The former Liverpool youngster, United's record signing, is yet to hit the back of the net in the league so far this term, after returning to action after the hamstring injury that ended his campaign early last season.

Brewster came off the bench to play a key part in the Blades' win at Swansea on Tuesday night, showing tenacity and a burst of pace to win the ball from former Blade Kyle Naughton and slip in Reda Khadra to score the 94th-minute winner.

Minutes earlier the two almost combined in reverse for a key goal, Khadra's driven cross headed just wide by Brewster on the stretch, but Brewster insists he has no concerns about not getting off the mark yet ahead of tomorrow's trip to Preston North End.

"No, I feel like it's coming," admitted Brewster.

"I had a couple of chances I feel I should have done better with, like the header the other day.

"But it is coming and it's only a matter of time and when I score one, I'll score a few.

"The more you think it's not going to come, it won't. And the more you believe, it will. And once I get one, I think I'll get more."

That was the case for Brewster's teammate Oli McBurnie, who ended his long wait for a league goal earlier this season away at Luton Town and then added two more in his next two games for good measure.
