Antons Kurakins says that we haven’t seen anything yet from Hamilton as they continue to punch above their weight in the Premiership.

The Latvian left-back says that Accies have put their blip at McDiarmid Park behind them with the win over Motherwell.

Now they are ready to show everyone the quality they possess.

“I think there is a lot more to come from us,” he said.

“The St Johnstone game was a bad one for us. Those kind of days can happen to even the best teams.

“We can’t concede four goals in one game so we have to improve and be more consistent. We lost soft goals. You can play badly, but there’s no excuse to lose four goals.

“But I feel that we have a very good team. Everyone wants to fight for each other in every game.

“Of course when we were criticised it helped to motivate us. It’s only natural that if someone says you are bad, you want to prove that you are good, to prove them wrong.

“So far we’ve done that but we need to keep going and take it game by game. Every game is important. In every game it’s tough and the first goal is so important because the teams are all of a similar level.

“Motivation and team spirit can make all the difference when the sides are so well matched. We take it game by game and we’ll see where we end up but, of course, we want to finish in the top six.”

Kurakins is sure that Hamilton can pick up another three points when they visit Kilmarnock on Saturday, putting full faith in manager Martin Canning.

“We concentrate on every opponent and try to analyse them,” he said.

“We’ll spend Friday looking at Kilmarnock. The manager and Guillaume Beuzelin will have a plan. They always do.”
