Stuart McCall refuses to press panic button over Motherwell's goalscoring famine Motherwell manager Stuart McCall has been putting his players through numerous finishing drills in a bid to end their barren run - but he insists he is not concerned about their ability to find the net. Motherwell have gone four games without a goal in a run that has seen them go from top of the SPL to eighth place ahead of their visit to St Johnstone. But McCall remains convinced they will turn around their form. "I would be worried if we weren't creating," McCall said. We had three or four good opportunities against Hibs. We have got to keep putting ourselves in those positions and have the confidence to take them. We have good finishers in the club but we do need people to start chipping in with goals. We have worked on different types of finishing, crosses from wide, shots from the edge of the box, everything. The good things is we have players who create chances. We have pace and trickery, we just need to be clinical when that chance comes along. We might only get one, lots of games have been won by one shot on target. Motherwell have tended to rely on Michael Higdon to put the ball in the net this season - his seven goal-tally is one higher than the rest of his team-mates put together. Jamie Murphy has netted two, both against Kilmarnock when he played just off the front, but he feels he can also chip in from his usual wide position. "Wherever the manager plays me, I feel like I have always got a chance to score," Murphy said. It's obviously different playing up front when you have more chances and through on goal a lot more. But it's a challenge and something I look forward to. You want to score from different positions and show other people that you're a good player. St Johnstone midfielder Chris Millar, meanwhile, believes the midweek hammering by Celtic should be put into the context of an encouraging start to the season for the Perth club. A 5-0 defeat in the Scottish Communities League Cup quarter-final at Parkhead on Tuesday night was St Johnstone's first loss in nine games. Indeed, their fifth consecutive league win of the campaign against Kilmarnock earlier in the month equalled a club record stretching back to 1971. The Perth side can leapfrog Neil Lennon's men to lead the SPL table for 24 hours at least with a win over Motherwell at McDiarmid Park today, if results in the games involving Aberdeen and Hibs go their way. Millar, 29, believes the Celtic result should not negate the good start to their season. "If a win on Saturday can take us top of the league then that is brilliant," he said. That just shows you how well we have done so far. It was a nice wee run we were on, eight games and then we lost one to the best team in the country so we have to try to look for positives.
