Even when he is getting fouled he needs to make the effort to keep playing. After a while refs just stop giving free kicks even when he does get fouled.
I said beforehand that away from home I’d happily take a draw, especially if it came with another clean sheet. Add a competent striker in January and we’ll start turning these draws into wins.
Disappointed not to win that but happy enough not to lose and preserve our unbeaten and clean sheet run.
Again that game highlights our weakness up front but we undoubtedly are more than decent elsewhere on the park.
Hopefully results like today and the other draws we’ve had won’t come back to haunt us but you’ve got to say we are in with a big shout of top six this season.
70% possession and nearly 590 passes with an accuracy of 80% at Tannadice is just bonkers.
We were the team on the front foot so no idea what game the bbc were watching.
Yes, a lot of our defensive success can be attributed to denying the opposition possession near our box. Ward is a good fit for our system. Like Grizzly though, I'm not 100% convinced of his reliability at cross balls. As Big Mal once said "The greatest crime in football is to make your goalkeeper do any work at all".
