James McClean believes Wrexham are "more than a match" for anyone in League One after they returned to winning ways with a 4-1 triumph over Northampton Town.

McClean netted twice to add to goals from Jack Marriott and Elliot Lee as Phil Parkinson's side moved to within two points of league leaders Birmingham City following the Blues' 1-0 loss to Charlton Athletic.

Victory came after Wrexham - who sit second in the table after the opening 10 games of the campaign - failed to score in their previous two fixtures - against Leyton Orient and Stevenage.

And McClean feels Wrexham are more than capable of challenging their promotion rivals this season if they can produce high performance levels on a consistent basis.

"You look at the squad we have and the quality we have, when we're bang at it, we're more than a match for anybody, but you have to be bang at it every game," he said.

"If you ease up or you're a little bit off it like we have been in the last couple of games, the results speak for themselves. You can't afford to do that.

"This team is built on hard work. We've got the quality, but first and foremost we need to work hard, and when we're at it and it clicks like it did today, it's a joy to behold."
