Intend somehow to get canned! (6)
I believe the answer is:
tinned
'canned' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'intend somehow' is the wordplay.
'somehow' is an anagram indicator.
'intend' is an anagram of 'TINNED'.
'to get' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for tinned that I've seen before include "Canned" , "Sealed in a can" , "In cans" .)
