Peter The Thistle Beater

Peter Canero talks about his goal last night Vs Thistle, his fitness and a possible Scotland call-up...

On his goal Vs Thistle..."Barry McLaughlin hit a long ball trying to find Kris Boyd. I told Kris to leave it, but the truth is I think he missed it.  It's great to score, but we have to learn to kill teams off. They could have undone all our good work near the end."

On His fitness..."I had a groin injury which was annoying me throughout the pre-season and played up when I was away with Scotland, It's been getting better and it felt okay last night."

On his Scotland future..."At the moment I am concentrating on my club form and on the Under-21s, who are preparing for those championships. If anything happens I'll just take it from there, but I am just going to concentrate on the Under-21s for the time being. Of course if the call came (from Vogts) then I would be delighted, but at the moment I am not really thinking that far beyond. I am focusing on the club and taking things from there."


Jim Jefferies on Canero... "He injects a lot of pace and he scored a couple of goals in the pre-season from there. And that was another great finish from the young lad and I feel he will always cause problems for the opposition."
