    Missed it since I was working, glad we got the job done, on the radio sounded like we dominated but never created too much. Take the 3 points and clean sheet.

    Good to get it done after the effort on Wednesday, Defence played a very calm and assured game in most parts.

    Yeah I'm surprised we have not become so used to that we find a way around it. We did seem more narrow today too which I found odd.

    Different type of win today. Might not have been a free-flowing goal fest like previous weeks, however the way we controlled possession and the game was very good. Very comfortable in defence and kept Dundee at arms length throughout. Missing the final ball and better decisions, but Dundee with 5 at the back made it difficult.

    Indeed, I would say if we can reproduce the control of the game like today in Europe. We can be confident of gaining points away from home.

    I agree with Brendan Rodgers about Craig Gordon today as well, much improved in distribution and collecting crosses. Sviatchenko and Simunovic looking a good pairing and Brown was influential yet again.

    Good 3 points.

    Craigan is an absolute *.

    Three points. Clean sheet. Dominant performance. Only thing missing was goals, but as we've seen before, Dundee defended for their lives (similar to Alloa). All in all, I'm pretty happy with this after the exertions on Wednesday. When the team come back in two weeks, hopefully they'll be ready for Borussia.

    Brown was phenomenal again, and deserved his goal.

    We're always narrow, everyone is always looking to come inside and flood the box. Today we played side to side and passed Dundee of the park. 80% possession I'm sure.

    Dundee deserve a lot of credit for their defensive display, pretty solid.

    We were flat as anything, pretty poor all round. Relieved for the three points.

    How many games is that this season that the opposing goalkeeper has had the game of their life ?

    Scott Bain looked almost unbeatable today and contributed greatly to a good defensive display by Dundee.

    Glad we got the three points.

    Bain should be added to the list. But there is a few on the list including Owain Fôn Williams
    and Neil Parry.

    Very dominant display. Brown was excellent and big Jozo looks solid. Thought Erik was good too, his forward runs are excellent and reads the game marvellously always nipping in.

    was about time we dug deep for a victory like yesterday, proves we can do the other side of the game too.
