Burnley's scoring sensation Jay Rodriguez took his goal tally for the season to 17 against Peterborough at the weekend and is beginning to dream of life in the Premier League.
The Clarets are three points away from the top six with 17 matches remaining and the 22-year-old believes a life at the top is now becoming a reality.
We're playing really well so I don't think age is a factor.

Rodriguez said: "We've got the belief, I don't think it matters what age we are. We're playing really well so I don't think age is a factor. We've got a good mix, a good squad, a good belief in the team.
"We've got a great energy, but I think we've got the same experience as well with the likes of Duffo (Michael Duff) and Granty (Lee Grant)."
The sought-after striker added: "From the start of the season to now we've progressed massively. Of course I'd love to play in the Premier League with Burnley. It's a great club."
Rodriguez will be aiming to continue his scoring feats in a series of crucial upcoming games starting at Southampton this weekend, followed by Barnsley at home, Reading away and Millwall at home during the rest of a crucial February campaign.
