ALLAN RUSSELL has helped Stephen Glass to bring a cutting edge back to Aberdeen.
Now he is looking for his team to show their finishing touch by beating Hibs to the third spot.

Glass and Russell inherited a squad that had suffered a chronic lack of goals. The pair have got off to an unbeaten league start and have cut Hibs’ advantage to three points – with the Easter Road side next up in the Granite City.
