Di Giacomo managed to make his first start of 2007 last Saturday against St Mirren and set up both goals in a 2-0 win. He excelled in a right midfield role on his full return from a lay-off with a fractured cheekbone. He said: "I've played there before, it's no problem. I've got good legs and good energy, that's why he (Jefferies) likes me there. I'll play anywhere, I just want to play football. It took a bit of getting used to, I was unsure of myself a bit in the first half. But I settled down and the team settled down in the second half. I thought I did fine, I hope I have done enough to stay in the team." Di Giacomo found the strength to burst forward and set up Colin Nish's second goal late in the game despite his lack of first-team action. He said: "I'm generally quite a fit lad so I knew that wouldn't be a problem. It's just your touch and sharpness you maybe miss out on when you're injured. But the more games you get the better you get." The Glasgow-born player is now looking for a run in the team to help him win a new contract in the summer. He said: "I'm out of contract but I'll wait and see what happens with that. I'm not too worried about that just now, I've just got to concentrate on the games in hand. The better I do in the games the more I've got to negotiate with." | |||
