Do Dundee United have Scotland's best midfield three?
Story updated
The story in brief
7-second readAs Dundee United hold reigning champions Celtic to a draw in Glasgow, the question is posed about whether they have the best midfield in Scotland.
From the source
Do Dundee United have the best midfield three in the Scottish Premiership? With a man called Zidane at the heart of it all? That was the question being posed after Jim Goodwin's side stretched their unbeaten run to six games with a hard-earned 2-2 draw that prevented Celtic stretching their lead at the top of the table.
United have slipped to fifth thanks to city rivals Dundee's 3-1 victory over Kilmarnock, and Irishman Goodwin was left disappointed his side had failed to win at Celtic Park for the first time in 52 games stretching back to 1992.
But Goodwin, Celtic counterpart Martin O'Neill and the BBC pundits were full of praise for how they gave the reigning champions a fright and continue to impress.
