It makes not an ounce of sense on such a wide variety of levels.

Firstly, you're playing McGinn in a role for which he is exclusively unsuited.
Secondly, you're ceding one of our best attacking threats.

If you're set on playing that formation you play, say, Ball in the deep right role and McGinn, possibly, at centre forward.

It looked to me like Del had an idea then shoehorned square pegs into round holes.....and it didn't work.
And then he played McLean, the only member of our regular midfield three available, in McGinn's position. So we had no regular centre midfielders, and a winger at right back. Absolutely baffling. Also, Nwakali should have played the final 30 minutes against Dundee Utd, that's just schoolboy stuff, although I know that's been said before.
