Motherwell must 'add the layers on' after Celtic draw - Kettlewell

After shocking the league leaders with a late draw at Celtic Park last week, Motherwell manager Stuart Kettlewell is challenging his players to carry that momentum into the weekend.

The Steelmen have the chance to move just a point behind visitors Dundee with a win on Saturday, and would put themselves within a point of the top six.

Kettlewell is asking for his side to show many of the same qualities as they did against the league leaders, while "adding a little bit" to ensure victory.

“We want to keep that same defensive organisation, that concentration that we had throughout the game and we have to add a little bit, especially playing at home,” he added.

“We have to make sure we carry a threat more consistently through the game than we did at Celtic Park, but the game at Celtic Park always feels like something different.

“We have to add the layers on, create more chances and put a little bit of pressure on ourselves that, when those chances come, we can take them."

The Motherwell manager also called on his team to become more potent in front of goal, saying they've passed up "the best chances" in recent outings.

“In the last nine games or so, you can maybe even include the Celtic game, we have had by far the best chance or chances before we have conceded the first goal,” Kettlewell said.

“But very simply we need to show the composure to give ourselves a lead because the mindset that comes with scoring the first goal is pretty remarkable."
