Suspect for McKinstry he's an unfortunate victim of our formation change. He fitted in as a winger in a 4-3-3 but I don't really know where he fits in our 3-5-2. It's a shame for him but it is what it is. I can't fault Kettlewell at all since he's come in. He's made football really simple and it's working.
This is the biggest thing for us. If we'd had to see out the season with a mixture of Lamie/Sol/Mugabi I think we could all see that we were in free fall. Butcher's had a similar impact as the Hartley/Aldred signings as just a big brute that organises the entire defence which seems to have brought McGinn on as a serviceable RCB. Casey, meanwhile, looks like a great signing. His marauding runs forward are worth the ticket price alone.
