James Maxwell has told how Lee Bullen is helping to transform him into a major goal threat for Ayr United.
The midfielder bagged a brace in Kirkcaldy - taking his total to six for the season.
And, off the back of his big goal at Kilmarnock recently, Maxwell says his focus on being a threat in the opposition box is paying dividends.
He said: "I'm concentrating on getting in the right areas more and thankfully it's paying off.
"I need to keep getting in these positions and the manager has been keen for me to make more of an impact.
"It's not always about having nice play in midfield - it's about being a bigger threat up the pitch.
"He's encouraged me to get more shots off and crosses into the box and it's working well for me just now."
Maxwell has been a key player in the Bullen revolution and insists morale in the United camp is at an all time high after the rout at Raith.
He added: "We came off it last week against Queens and our performance dipped.
"But it was good to get back on track with this win and everyone is confident just now.
"It's a big game on Friday and we feel like we're building momentum now and heading in the right direction.
"But as soon as you take your eye off the ball in this league you get punished.
"The priority is still to stay in the league and we know that.
"I've enjoyed it all season, you want to give the fans something back because we haven't been doing that, especially at home, so hopefully we can do that on Friday night."
