Kightly targets more goals

Michael Kightly has expressed his desire to score more goals for Burnley in the Premier League.

The winger opened his account for the season during Saturday afternoon's 2-2 draw away at Leicester City.

Having got himself off the mark, the 28-year-old is now eager to contribute more goals over the coming months.

"It was nice to get a goal. It would be nice if I can get a few more. I just want to knuckle down and work hard. It was only my second start of the season, I missed all the pre-season, so I want to build on my fitness and hopefully I can get a few more goals," he told the Lancashire Evening Telegraph.

Kightly's goal was the first scored by a Burnley player in the Premier League in 655 minutes of action.
