Is there some reason why JC doesnt try Deano and Fletch up front as part of a 4-4-2?
Liike tomorrow for instance. Deano is the man.
With Clayton Donaldson, Benji, and Damon Gray also in the squad, why buy another striker?

I know what you mean, and I also think Dean Shiels and Fletcher should be tried out as a strike partnership in these remaining games.
I always have this feeling however, that managers sign players to fit into a system of play. I think Collins likes the 4-3-3 system which we used a lot at the start of the season to good effect. To play this system you need a big strong striker to hold the ball up, occupy the central defenders, and bring others into play. With Killen about to go we have no-one to do that if JC wants to get back to his favoured system for next season. Hence the reason i think he will bring in another Killen type striker.
I hope Dean Shiels is still a Hibs player next season, because he is a talented lad and a good finisher. I would like to think there is a place for him in the Collins team for the 07/08 campaign.
