| Robson hurt a groin and was substituted against his former club, but his condition is not causing concern to the backroom staff at Tannadice.
And, while he does not think Robson has produced his best often enough this season, boss Ian McCall is delighted to have his dead-ball specialist in his plans.
“I don’t believe he has reached the heights of last season and, with the season not that far off the halfway mark, that is disappointing,” said Ian. “But Barry will still do three or four things in a game that shows what a good player he is.
“With him, you are always guaranteed he’ll put in a good shift for you. When he came here he was not known for the defensive side of his game, but I think he realised it had to improve if he was going to succeed in the SPL and he has worked very hard on that.”
Meanwhile, with roadworks on the A90 approaching Aberdeen not as bad as was feared, outwith the morning rush hour, Ian has abandoned plans to take the team north tomorrow and spend the night in a hotel.
Fans heading to the game on Saturday, though, should allow more time for their journey. |
