Rickie Lambert: 'I wanted to score more'

Rickie Lambert has insisted that he would like to have contributed even more goals for Southampton during their return campaign to the Premier League.

The 31-year-old finished as the highest English goalscorer in the top flight with 15 strikes to his name.

However, the centre-forward only described that return as "okay" and claimed that he could have helped his team out a little bit more.

"It's nice but I believe I could have finished on more and I wanted to finish on more," Lambert told the Daily Echo. "I guess 15 is okay but I wish I could have helped my team a bit more but we've done well."

Lambert scored the equaliser as the Saints drew 1-1 with Stoke City on the final day of the season yesterday afternoon.
