The Dons are last in the Premiership with no goals and just one point from their first five games. Boss Thelin doesn’t think his team can drop further and reckons the pressure should now be off as they had to Motherwell on Saturday with very little expectation on them.

The Swede said: “We’re rock-bottom so the only thing we can do is become better. Hopefully we can get this tension out.

“This club has a long history and it means so much to so many people. When you sign a contract you take responsibility.

“Everyone is working hard but they don't have the performance level.
