Fresh minds
Dundee United have taken the opportunity of a free week to give their squad some time off and allow the overseas contingent at Tannadice the chance of a few days break back home (writes Tom Duthie).
With his squad already regarded as among the fittest in the country, for boss Craig Levein it’s a case of fresh minds being more beneficial than even stronger legs.

“We have a few foreign players and, especially with the younger ones, I see no harm in them going home for a few days,” said the manager. “Hopefully, they will come back eager to get going again.”
