Kettlewell Addresses Hibs Defeat, Urges ‘Positive Reaction’ and ‘Maximising Opportunity’

Motherwell manager Stuart Kettlewell addressed the media ahead of his team’s Premiership match against Dundee scheduled for Wednesday. Key points from his remarks include: Kettlewell stated he remains “angry” following the 3-0 loss his squad experienced against Hibernian on Saturday, further commenting that they were “architects of our own downfall”. The Motherwell manager is calling for a “positive reaction” during Wednesday’s game in Dundee. He expressed a desire to “maximise the opportunity” presented by their game in hand over competing clubs, while emphasizing the necessity for his team to “show a better version of ourselves”. Kettlewell noted that “service has been lacking” for forward Apostolos Stamatelopoulos over the last two fixtures. The manager proceeded to draw parallels between the Australia international forward and Theo Bair, who initially struggled at Motherwell before finding consistent goalscoring form in the latter half of the previous season.
