David Beckham says he is targeting a place in the Paris St-Germain
starting XI after making an instant impact in Sunday's vital 2-0 victory
over rivals Marseille.
The former England captain admitted he had been nervous
about his first performance in France before his 16-minute appearance
as a substitute.
But having helped create the second goal of the night
for Zlatan Ibrahimovich, he said he had been proud of his debut at Parc
des Princes.
"Obviously it is a good start," he said. "It was nice to get out there as it seems like a long time since I signed.
"The manager just asked me to go on keep the ball and settle things down. Hopefully I did that."
The 37-year-old could make his first start for Paris in
Wednesday's Cup game against the same opponents and he is keen to prove
to Ancelotti that he still has the ability to contribute for 90
minutes.
