Vale striker Ben Waine will not be setting himself any goal targets and insisted he is just grateful to be given a chance to play.The New Zealand international is looking forward to the League One clash at home to Peterborough United tomorrow, hoping he can continue to make an impact.
The 24-year-old is even happy to play in an unfamiliar position out on the left and says he is getting more comfortable the more he plays there.
"It’s maybe a bit more physical because you do have to track back a bit further than you do when you are a striker but I back myself and my fitness to be able to do that," he said of the position at the club's pre-match press conference.
"I don't think it’s something unnatural for me to be able to do either. At first I was a bit surprised [the manager wanted me to play there].
