Kyle Vassell bagged the goal that sealed Killie's place in the Europa League - and reckons it could be the start of a successful period for the Rugby Park side
Kyle Vassell fired Kilmarnock into the Europa League and promptly declared that this could just be the start of a special spell of the club.
But he insists qualifying for Europe with Killie, coming just 12 months after scrambling to survive in the top flight, is every bit as good and he’s confident this won’t be the end of the journey for the Rugby Park side. “I can’t explain how hard the season has been. For me personally, I’ve been playing with injuries for quite a while now.
“I’ve taken that with two hands and I’ve got nothing but great things to say about him. What is the key? Togetherness with the group. We’re genuinely friends outside of football, spend so much time together away from football.“The manager has brought in good players, but he’s brought in the right mentality too. I can’t tell you how important that is, just boys who do it right every single day, and that’s what he’s brought into the building.
