Coventry City striker Andy Morrell is confident he will be able to cope with life in the first division.
Morrell had been a journeyman striker until he hit the goal trail with Wrexham last season, and he is confident he can keep his scoring run going at Highfield Road.
"It is a step-up but I will be playing with better players around me, no disrespect to Wrexham, and I think that will make me a better player in turn," Morrell told the club's official website.
"I haven't set myself any strict targets, I'm just looking to settle in as quickly as possible and score goals, because that's what I have been brought here to do.
"I know it's going to be tough this season because everybody says what a difficult league this is, but I still think a big club like Coventry should be aiming high.
"I think it's important to start off with high ambitions. If you don't it's almost like you're accepting failure before you've begun so we have to start off aiming high.
"If things don't go to plan we will have to re-evaluate but we have got to start off looking to finish as high as we possibly can."
