Sam Lammers is confident he can fire Rangers to silverware success this season after spending last term fighting for survival in Serie A.
The Dutchman completed a £3million switch to Ibrox from Atalanta last month as he joined a squad that is being overhauled by boss Michael Beale ahead of the new campaign.
Lammers scored just two league goals during frustrating loan stints with Empoli and a Sampdoria side that eventually finished well adrift at the foot of the standings.
That record naturally caught the attentions of some supporters when Beale sanctioned a deal and he put pen-to-paper on a four-year contract at Ibrox.
But the 26-year-old has no doubt that he will hit the goal trail for a Rangers side that will dominate most domestic encounters and that have titles and trophies in their sights.
Lammers said: "As a striker, you want to score more goals than I did last season and have a better record. I think you can really have an opinion on that if you see the matches that I have played.
"A lot of matches last season were not easy. We played in the lower regions of Italy, not a lot of possession, a lot of hard work to keep the ball, long balls.
"I think if you see the real chances I got last season, there were not many. This is, of course, not only the fact that it is difficult for the club. I can also blame myself for this.
"This is a big factor. At a team like Rangers, you should be the better team almost every week and I should get more chances to score goals.
"He (Beale) has spoken to me about [the pressure]. I have played my whole youth at PSV, I played in the first team of PSV.
"I have also played in loads of teams who win a lot of matches so it is not as if I am not used to it. I think it is a good pressure for me.
"Of course, last season I played to stay in the league at both clubs in Italy where I played.
"Now it is going to be every game you should win to win the league. To play for the prizes, this is why you are a football player and also a reason to come here.
"This is why you play football, to win matches. Last season we had to look down a lot. Now I can play for the top places. This is what I am excited about."
