Bevis Mugabi insists he’s looking up rather than down as Motherwell aim to sneak into the Premiership’s top six.
Stuart Kettlewell’s side lie just four points behind sixth-placed Dundee with three games to go before the split.
With troubled Aberdeen visiting North Lanarkshire on Saturday, the Uganda international says they must focus on themselves to continue their recent uptick in form.
“I think it’s been a better time for me in the season,” Mugabi said. “The team have been performing well and getting results. It’s probably been the best part of the season for myself, for sure.
We’re looking up. The table is very tight and anything can happen in the next few games. We just have to focus on ourselves and prepare right for the game on Saturday.
“We know Aberdeen’s situation, we know our situation even better. I’m not looking down to be honest with you, I’m looking up. We’ve picked up points the last few weeks and we’re in a good place.
“It’s a big motivation for us to reach that top six and it’s still very, very possible in the next few games.”
On his future at Fir Park with his contract up in the summer, he adds: “My job is just to keep on impressing. I just have to wait for the club to have a conversation. All I can do is just perform for the manager, for the team, and what will be will be.
