Dundee United striker Lachlan Rose: 'We fear no-one in the Premiership this season'
Dundee United striker Lachlan Rose says his team fear no-one in the Premiership this season after a positive start to the campaign. The Aussie striker scored the first goal of the season against Rangers but was left disappointed with a 1-1 draw.
What happened?
Lachlan Rose scored the first goal of the season for Dundee United in their 1-1 draw against Rangers at Tannadice. The Aussie striker arrived at the club from Newcastle Jets in the summer and has settled in quickly.
Why it matters for Dundee United
Rose's goal was a significant moment for the club, who are looking to improve on their 9th place finish last season. With 34 goals scored and 53 conceded, Dundee United are currently 37 points behind leaders Heart of Midlothian.
What comes next?
Dundee United will look to build on their positive start to the season as they face Hearts in their next match. Rose is confident that his team can take on anyone in the Premiership and is looking forward to the challenge.
The Aussie striker believes that the Antipodean influence in the squad can be a positive for the club. With four Australians and one New Zealander in the squad, Rose thinks that the team's diverse background can bring different perspectives and ideas to the pitch.
Rose was delighted with his opening night goal against Rangers, but was left gutted not to beat Derek McInnes' men. He said: 'I love winning so not getting the three points was a bit disappointing. Even if it's against teams (like Rangers) I don't care, I just want to win games.'
What's next for Dundee United?
Dundee United will look to build on their positive start to the season as they face Hearts in their next match. Rose is confident that his team can take on anyone in the Premiership and is looking forward to the challenge.
