Mclean was pish, SaCK McHunISS!
That's the usual stuff posted.
Truth is that on the face of it, DM has been better for us than most of our previous managers. That's not to say he's the Messiah but FFS, we aren't exactly shopping in the managerial windows of Pep Guardiola etc so what else can we reasonably expect?
Yes, there will always be a Kilmarnock or a Hertz that have fantastic start to the campaign or have a great one off season but when you look at the stats, we have been consistently on the tails of Celtic by our 2nd places under DM when the much talked about financial gulf has been all too apparent in terms of wages and fees etc.
So we look to the cups and we have our chequered history of losing to lower league opposition. These days we bitch about losing to a financially dominant club in finals but at least we are consistently getting to them!
So overall, yes, DM is not a tactical genius and his signings are a bit hit and miss but whether by luck (which you need a bit of) or by judgement, we have managed a few 2nds and Europe and a cup and some finals. Not bad compared to the dross before.
Add in the dodgy ******* in Black and well, i think we have done okay.
