Jim Goodwin admits sitting third in the Premiership is more than even he could have dreamed of for Dundee United heading into the first international break.

The unbeaten Tannadice men made it eight points from four games with a deserved victory at Tynecastle against Hearts thanks to Ross Graham’s second half winner.

The newly-promoted side have kept three clean sheets in their last three outings. And Goodwin admitted his side fed off the nerves around Tynecastle.

He said: “We sensed that bit of anxiety coming in from the supporters after about half an hour. I don't think they had any real clear-cut chances.
