Professional performance and progress was never in doubt at Dens Park. We'll know tomorrow whether there's an outside dream of glory but it needs a hell of a lucky draw.

Our flaws remain clear and present but we can be happy they're usually relatively minor for our level.

However, Seedorf must surely be playing himself down the pecking order and the notion Scott should be given more responsibility is mental.

Long is more interesting, he was excellent when involved but invisible when left to his own devices. An Arnott or a McDonald would surely have created scraps to ease the pressure when we were sitting back in the second half - if he can add that to his game he could develop into an excellent player but I'm not sure he has the mentality for it. He's also hit 9 for the season now but we should acknowledge Donnelly being penalty taker skews things a little - if Long had taken (and scored obviously) two or three of those early penalties, he'd be looking a certainty to be the 15-goal striker everyone has asked for...and then his inability to do lot of the traditional number nine work would be more easily excused.
