RESOLVING THE LEDGER
This is one outlet's own report from Yahoo Sports — the article as it was filed.
Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Premiership trip to play Hearts.
Here are the key points from his press conference:
Goodwin says United can "take a huge amount of confidence" from their performance in their opening Premiership draw with Rangers, but notes it was "only one good game".
The manager says his side now face the challenge of delivering that kind of display week in, week out.
Goodwin says they are embracing "a tough start in terms of the fixtures we have got to contend with," as they prepare to face last season's runners-up, before champions Celtic and a Dundee derby.
He doesn't buy into the argument Hearts are vulnerable at the moment and is "expecting nothing but a really difficult fixture" against a side with a lot of "strength and depth" in their squad.
Amid continued speculation over the future of Will Ferry, Goodwin says there is "nothing at all" to update on the situation, adding: "Right now going forward I am planning for Will Ferry to be a Dundee United player."
On further signings, Goodwin says he hopes to have "some positive news" over the coming days, with defence and attacking midfield the areas they may strengthen further.
Whatever happens, he believes United "have enough within the squad at the moment to compete with every team in the Scottish Premiership".
"Everyone is fine" for their trip to Tynecastle.
