Craig Davies has scored six goals in 18 appearances for Port Vale

Striker Craig Davies says he is pleased to be contributing to Port Vale's push for the play-offs after struggling for games at parent club Brighton.

Davies joined Vale on loan in January, having failed to start a league game for the Seagulls this season.

"Any player wants to play, wherever that is, and obviously that's here at Port Vale for me at the moment," the 24-year-old told BBC Radio Stoke.

"I'm happy to be here and contributing with a goal here and there."

The Wales international, who also spent time on loan with Yeovil earlier this season, netted in both of Vale's games during the Easter weekend.

Davies has scored six goals in 18 games for the club and believes that he could have added to that tally further.

"If you're not in the positions, you've got something to worry about," said Davies.

"As long as you keep getting in those positions, you will score goals, and I'm confident I'll do that.

"If I'm not getting in those positions and I'm not missing chances then I'll be annoyed, so I'm happy with the way things are going at the moment."

The victories over Rotherham and Dagenham and Redbridge have moved Vale to within five points of a play-off place with six matches left to play.
