Victor Moses hopes his goal against West Brom can convince Roberto Martinez that he is worthy of a lengthy run in the Wigan side this season.[LNB] At 19, his idea of fun is to race down the wing, terrify his opponent and either grab a goal or set up a chance.[LNB]Moses did just that on when he scored the winner in Saturday's 1-0 Premier League victory against West Brom at the DW Stadium.[LNB]It was the first league goal of the season for the England Under-21 international, who arrived at the end of the January transfer window in a £2.5million move from Crystal Palace.[LNB]Moses lit up up the game with his surging runs after coming on in the second half and must be in with a chance of starting against Manchester United on Saturday at Old Trafford.[LNB]You get the impression Moses would not be fazed as he also did well in the draw with Liverpool in midweek.[LNB]He said: "It is up to the manager (Roberto Martinez). I am just keen to play football and enjoy myself. That is the best thing.[LNB]"I want to get at the full-back as soon as I get the ball, threaten him and make him nervous. It is important to create chances for the team and go forward all the time.[LNB]"There are a lot of games to come and I am just keen to keep learning and improving."[LNB]Moses' vital goal came in the 70th minute when he steered the ball beyond goalkeeper Scott Carson and into the corner of the net after being set up by Charles N'Zogbia.[LNB]Wigan's first win in six league games took them out of the bottom three and Martinez praised Moses for his contribution.[LNB]Martinez said: "We wanted to stretch the game and that is why I sent him on. He has the ability and is in a great moment.[LNB]"He came on against Liverpool and did well on Wednesday. I am not just using him as an impact player.[LNB]"He had a couple of injuries and has had to bide his time. He is still adapting to the Premier League.[LNB]"Victor is a very mature player and is ready to help the team. He is a raw talent. "
