STEVEN SHINES
St Johnstone interim manager Jim Weir today praised the showings of young defender Steven Anderson (writes James Masson).
“He came here as a centre-half, but we used him at right-back to start with. He did well during our unbeaten run in December and we missed him when he was out of the side.

“We’re now fielding him at centre-half and he’s a good defender with good habits. He’s aggressive and a winner,” said Jim.

Jim was happy with the side’s 2-0 away friendly win over Dumbarton. Saints fielded a mixture of fringe first-team players and youngsters.

“The boys worked hard and there were two or three good individual performances. It’s given me food for thought for Saturday’s game at Partick.”
