Hartlepool United star Jamie Miley reveals what he is aiming to 'add to his game' next season

Hartlepool United midfielder Jamie Miley has assessed the impact he has made during his time with Pools.

Hartlepool United midfielder Jamie Miley has revealed one of his main targets for his second full season with the National League club.

The former Newcastle United prospect has quietly gone about his business since making a permanent move away from his boyhood club to join Pools in January last year. Miley enjoyed a spectacular introduction to life with his new club when he came on as a substitute to grab a dramatic late equaliser in a 1-1 draw with Braintree Town just days after putting pen-to-paper at the Prestige Group Stadium.

That was the first of his five league goals during his time with Pools and the last of those came in seven-goal thriller against Southend United last month as Nicky Featherstone’s side earned all three points in the final home game of his managerial reign. Miley is likely to have a new manager by the time Pools return for pre-season training in late June and he will hope to establish himself as a key component of their side when the new season gets underway in August.

After being utilised in a number of different roles within the Pools midfield, the former Magpies youngster is now hoping to find the net with more regularity and admitted it was ‘definitely’ something he wants to add to his game during the new campaign. He said: “I think it just comes with sometimes I play a bit deeper and then sometimes I play a bit higher - but it’s definitely something I want to add to my game and get more of but it depends on the game and the formation.”
