ABERDEEN

Top of the league, four wins out of four and looking even better than last season. That's decent.

Their 4-3 win over Partick Thistle was the pick of all the games and Ryan Christie, again, was one of the best players over the weekend.

Derek McInnes’s side need to get tighter at the back; however, he can’t ask for much more.

CELTIC

Rodgers out! How dare his side drop points four days after travelling from Asia.

Celtic had a ridiculous number of shots against St Johnstone and so there is hardly room for any real disappointment.

Callum McGregor, of course, was the saviour and more than one Celtic fan has been waiting for Craig Gordon’s kicking to lead to a goal.

ST JOHNSTONE

If any team was going to win at Celtic Park, the Perth men has as good a chance as any.

As always, they were tactically spot-on, worked hard to close space and they got a bit of luck which they probably deserved. Is second or third place a possibility? You better believe it.

HAMILTON ACADEMICAL

To come back from two goals down, as they were at Kilmarnock, with a team bereft of strikers tells you everything about the Accies.

They continue to defy all, they live to do just that, and sit fourth with eight goals scored in four games, a huge improvement on last season.

RANGERS

Pedro Caixinha needed that win in Dingwall. He would have taken a 3-1 any day and the first-half performance in particular would have delighted him.

Rangers might also just have found themselves a goalscorer in Alfredo Morelos, that’s five in four games for him, which rather helps.

They still conceded a goal from a cross right enough; however, this was much better.

HIBERNIAN

Neil Lennon was right to point out that Dundee goalkeeper Scott Bain had ‘one of those days’ as he made a string of incredible saves which meant the game ended 1-1.

John McGinn was superb again. Hibs were right to laugh off the £750,000 bid from Nottingham Forest but if proper money is offered, they could lose their best player this week.

It’s a big few days for the club.

MOTHERWELL

For McGinn and Hibs, see Louis Moult and Motherwell. If the striker stays past Thursday that’s a guaranteed 20 goals when you include assists.

Stephen Robinson would have been delighted with his team for an hour, they were several levels above Hearts, and in, defender Cedric Kipre, the fans have a cult hero in the making. Chris Cadden also had his best game for a while.

HEARTS

The head coach situation has gone on too long but that can’t excuse how far Hearts fell out of a game they had led.

Jamie Walker was a bit better but Hearts' central midfield were outmuscled. Craig Levein, if he is to stay up, needs to uncover a lot of lost confidence.

ROSS COUNTY

Jim McIntyre didn’t miss his players for their first-half performance against Rangers, saying that they did not reach the standards he had set.

The men from Dingwall are badly missing Liam Boyce and the defence, which has been such a strength in recent times, is leaking goals.

And Scott Fox…what was the County keeper doing?

KILMARNOCK

One point is better than none, as a wise man once said, but when you are 2-0 up at home with less than 20 minutes to go and still draw; it must have felt like a 5-0 thrashing.

Lee Erwin scored and he needs to be among the goals because there is too much pressure put on Kris Boyd who he replaced. It would be good to see the two of them on the park at the same time.

DUNDEE

They have got off the mark at last but Neil McCann won’t be fooled.

Dundee rode their luck against Hibs and then some. Scott Bain is an excellent keeper and on the evidence so far he’ll need to be. In saying that, Dundee are missing key players from a squad that’s hardly huge.

PARTICK THISTLE

Maybe it’s a west end thing but it’s obvious that Thistle aren’t allowed to win even a point in August.

These traditional slow starts are becoming ridiculous. Thistle could still easily make the top six, but losing four goals at home isn’t the right away to go about it.
