For balance, the most noteworthy players he got in were Sinclair and Ravenhill. (I thought Ricky did a job that season).
Agree, he identified we had a weakness in central midfield and brought in Ravenhill. I strongly believe he also saw how inept we were at fullback and bringing in Robertson and McSweeney was also instrumental.
Hopefully with 2 wingers instead of fullbacks coming in January we can see a similar improvement on the pitch.
