"We did not win any trophies last season and we were all disappointed about that," said Lucas.
"That is something we want to change this season and the squad is now stronger than it was so hopefully that will help us.
"If you look at last season we drew some games that we would have expected to win but we have started this season well and are picking up wins so that is positive.
"The squad is now much better which is good for the club because it means we all have to work really hard if we want to be in the team.
"For me, it is tough because we have so many good players in my position but hopefully I will get my chance and when I do I have to be ready."
