Kevin van Veen shouting about goal targets isn't a problem, I wish more strikers would, says Well boss

Kevin van Veen scored his 20th goal of the season in the 3-1 Premiership win over Hibs last weekend and immediately targeted 10 more before the end of the campaign.

Motherwell boss Stuart Kettlewell has absolutely no problem with the Dutchman declaring his ambitious target, and wishes more strikers would.

Kettlewell says there’s too much of a culture of players being afraid of being mocked if they don’t hit those targets, and says neither he nor van Veen are amongst that group.

But on a serious note he says van Veen also knows he needs his team-mates to hit that total, which means everybody is working together.
