Murray 'buzzing' with Pressley's ideas but 'patience' required
Pressley's tenure began with a League Cup group-stage exit as back-to-back defeats to Airdrie and Alloa were followed by wins over Bonnyrigg and Montrose.
The Dark Blues get the new Premiership campaign under way on Sunday with the visit of Hibs.
Striker Murray, who was appointed skipper by new boss Pressley last month, told Sky Sports: "It's a privilege to be named captain.
"It's been great so far. The boys have been buzzing in terms of the ideas and the way that we want to play.
"When you change the system, it's just getting that practice all the time, keep doing it and just getting used to it. When we get results, we'll all be happy.
"There's been change in the summer, and it's just new ideas.
"We've had some players come in, so it's just building these relationships and trying put into play what the manager wants, and that will take time. He knows that.
"It's just asking the supporters for some patience. We've got an exciting season to look forward to starting on Sunday.
"We're working hard on the training ground, getting the ideas in, working, building the relationships with our team-mates. Hopefully it will come good."

Eagles trade DT Thomas Booker to Raiders for CB Jakorian Bennett
The Raiders have traded cornerback Jakorian Bennett to the Eagles for defensive tackle Thomas Booker IV, according to multiple reports. The Eagles get even deeper in their cornerbacks room, with Booker joining Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean, Kelee Ringo, Adoree Jackson and Mac McWilliams. Bennett will join the competition with Ringo and Jackson to win a starting job. Bennett, a fourth-round pick in 2023, started 11 games and played in 13 others with the Raiders. He has 58 tackles and 11 passes defensed. The Raiders had a big need in the middle of their defensive line after releasing Christian Wilkins. Booker, a fifth-round pick of the Texans in 2022, appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Eagles last season. He started one game and played 166 defensive snaps and 32 on special teams. He spent 2022 with the Texans, who released him out of training camp in 2023. The Eagles signed him to their practice squad, but he did not play a regular-season game in 2023.
