"It's a question that will attract a lot of questions if I start answering. For me it's an irrelevant question. I know there's a lot of talk about us being in the title race now. In terms of being in a race, racing with other clubs there needs to be some conditions [budgets] that are more or less the same."
"Motherwell have been the best football team I've seen this season north or south of the border. They play an incredible brand of football. Maybe they will have too much to [handle the pressure]."
Motherwell manager Jens Berthel Askou dismisses speculation about his team competing for the Scottish Premiership title, calling it irrelevant due to budget differences between clubs. Despite trailing Hearts by 10 points and Celtic by 4 points with 11 games remaining, Motherwell has emerged as the league's form team. They have won 8 of their last 12 matches, conceding only 3 goals, and maintain the best defensive record with just 18 goals conceded in 27 games. Forward Tawanda Maswanhise leads with 14 goals, while goalkeeper Calum Ward boasts the best save percentage. Askou emphasizes confidence in winning individual matches rather than pursuing the title, highlighting the team's collective effort and style of play.
