Fatah: It was good to give fans a present

HALL GOOD United boss as scorer Fatah is replaced close to end

- 

AMAR FATAH believes he is now coming to the fore at Dundee United - and has made it clear he is going nowhere in January.

The Swedish Under-21 ace netted the opener and put on an impressive showing in the draw at Aberdeen on Saturday.

Fatah is on a season-long loan from Troyes but doesn't expect to be recalled by the French side, part of the City Football Group, when the window reopens next month.

The winger said: "I expect to remain at Dundee United. I haven't really spoken with them (Troyes) about the loan.

"I have had more contact with the City Group. It is an exciting project.

"I am just focusing on the loan and then we will see what happens."

Fatah netted his third goal of the season against Aberdeen. He put Nicky Devlin under pressure, stole it off him then ran on before curling the ball past Dimitar Mitov.

He said: "My family was at home but I don't celebrate Christmas.
