St Mirren's new boss Craig McLeish is keen to change the team's style and make them more exciting to watch. The 36-year-old has been given a three-year contract to lead the Buddies after helping them preserve their Premiership status as interim boss at the end of the last campaign. McLeish wants to implement a change of style on the pitch, making the team more enjoyable to watch. He revealed that chief operating officer Keith Lasley broke the good news to him in a late-night phone call, fulfilling a long-term aspiration he's had to be a manager in his own right. McLeish has been working at the club for nine years in other roles and is excited about the recruitment process. He believes that the best way to win games is to change the team's style, being more exciting, high energy, and attacking constantly. However, McLeish also emphasized that results will be the main priority, and he will be pragmatic at times. The new boss is looking forward to a good pre-season and is excited about the challenge ahead. With McLeish at the helm, St Mirren's fans can expect a more exciting brand of football. The team will be looking to play more on the front foot, trying to go toe-to-toe with everyone and win every game. McLeish's appointment is seen as a pivot moment for the club, with more emphasis on the development of young players and an efficient player-trading model. The future looks bright for St Mirren, and fans will be eagerly waiting to see how the team performs under McLeish's leadership.
