Holt and O'Hara

Both have been in/out of the squad a few times, having been regulars last season, so they may well have decided they didn't see themselves improving their position with NM. We also don't know what was 'on the table' from NM.

There's also - potentially - a more practical factor, that both are west coast lads & can save themselves 3-4 hours commuting time every day. I think many of us would be tempted to change employers in those circumstances, if they were getting similar terms.

Good luck to both of them, if they have signed a PCA, they've both had some memorable games for us.

Leftbacks seem a rear breed so might not be as easy as many folk think. 

I think McCann would have done more to keep them if he thought he couldn't get better replacements. If NM plays 352 next season then the wing backs are really important as need to be good defending and going forward. If he can identify quality wing backs then that will go along way to resolving our lack of width/balance/creativity/pace. Holt has been decent recently but he is too inconsistent. O'Hara has too many weaknesses to be good consistently for us, but both are good signings for a newly promoted team.

Both no bad players IMO. But if NM is willing to let them go and believes he can replace them with better but tbh I would like to think he has someone lined up already.  Then I'm happy for them to go. But if this backfires and we struggle to find players to fill the gaps it's a massive step backwards and we will be back playing that famous largs set up "square pegs round holes"
