That makes me feel a lot more comfortable.Having signed a contract extension last month through until 2019, Scotts long-term goal is development and, eventually, regular starts peppered with as many goals as he had scored during his prolific youth team career.In the short term, its pushing for inclusion in the travelling squad to face the Phoenix on Saturday, as the sixth-placed Wanderers attempt to rebound from last weekends 3-0 loss to Melbourne Victory.He knows thats partly dependent on whether Bulut returns to the fray - and later, if Popovic recruits a striker in the January transfer window - but says not playing wont impact on his drive.If Kerem was to come back in and I was to go out, nothing would change, Scott said.Id still be training 100 per cent because I know, if I have a good week training, Ill be back in - thats the way it is with Popa.
