Crystal Palace striker Connor Wickham has tempered his targets for 2019, with fitness his first objective.
Rather than set a goal target, Wickham is just keen to play more after two years out with a serious knee injury.
'I've not really set myself any targets this year,' Wickham said. 'Every year I say 'this year is my year'. In the season it's just about now staying fit, being in the manager's eye and being available for selection. Hopefully that's what I'll achieve.'
