Kilmarnock 0-0 Motherwell: What the manager said

Kilmarnock manager Derek McInnes: "We've played worse and won games. I thought we were terrific, it's hard to be critical. But it's our job to win games and find a way to score a goal.

"But we have a combination of the offside goal, the crossbar, good blocks and us being a bit rushed at times.

"You could feel - not the anxiety - but we just needed to stay calm. We got plenty of bodies in the box and set play opportunities. You can be critical from a manager's point of view in terms of how we can make more of those opportunities.

"But in terms of how we set about the task, it was one-way traffic. Draws should feel like defeats at home. I've always felt that since we came to Rugby Park, and it's not a bad thing draws feel that way.

"It does feel like there was so much more to get from that game.

"I would rather play rotten and get a scrappy 1-0 win. That's the way it is."

McInnes says Kyle Vassell is out for two months with a ligament tear and Innes Cameron has torn his hamstring and will be out for seven to eight weeks.

As a result the Killie boss says his priority his to bring in a striker this month, having previously been looking for defensive cover.
