In-form Middleton playing with big smile on his face as ruthless United march on

- NEIL ROBERTSON

GLENN MIDDLETON admits it felt like his world was ending as he failed to make the impact he would have liked at the start of the season.

But now the Dundee United star is back playing with a large smile on his face thanks to some dazzling displays for the Championship leaders.

The 23-year-old has seven assists and one goal to his name in his last five games setting up two of Louis Moult's strikes in Friday night's 6-0 thumping of Arbroath.

And the former Rangers winger is determined his rich vein of form will continue as the Terrors look to bounce back to the Premiership at the first time of asking.
