Peterborough striker Aaron Mclean has said he is targeting the League Two Golden Boot after taking his goal tally to 31 in all competitions.

Mclean scored twice in Posh's 4-0 win over Lincoln on Saturday.

"It's nice to get over the 30-goal mark. I've been trying to get there for the last few weeks," he said.

"The next target is getting to 30 goals in League Two and to win the competition's golden boot," the Posh striker told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire.

Mclean has scored 27 League Two goals so far this season.

Peterborough's win against Lincoln took them back to the top of League Two with a three-point lead over MK Dons, who have played two games fewer.

I am still working on my finishing, particularly from different angles

"The way we play, the strikers will always get good support if they can look after the ball so I have been working to improve my hold up play.

"I am still working on my finishing, particularly from different angles."

Loan striker Scott Rendell scored his first two goals for Posh as he partnered Maclean in attack for Saturday's win.

Mclean praised the newcomers performance and said: "Getting hold of the ball and linking up play is part of Rendell's natural game.

"He's a good player who is still young but easy to play with."
