Luxury at Dens
Dundee boss Alex Rae is enjoying the luxury of a week where he can focus almost exclusively on match preparation (writes Tom Duthie).
There are no trialists at Dens Park right now, no-one away on international duty and, of the first-team squad that has been on duty since the opening week of the campaign, only goalkeeper Ludovic Roy was not in full training today.

“It’s been good to have no distractions and not too much to worry about in terms of injuries. There’s been a big group in working the past couple of days and the tempo has been up,” he said.

The only long-term injury concern is loan signing Craig Sives. The centre-half has been receiving treatment for a pelvic problem back at his club Hearts and remains some way away from fitness.
