He had too much width in January.
If he's back he had better be in better shape or he will be sent packing again.

@danielwatters17 Pat Fenlon wants Dean Shiels and John Sutton, had informal talks with Shiels on Sun night and not had any talks with Sutton
If I could find my quote on this re John Sutton I would be very smug. I did say Hibs were after Sutton approx 1 month ago.
Im sure I seen somewhere we were interested in mark Wilson from Celtic? Anyone heard or seen similar?
Hmm not bad :) change booth for Scott smith though, I think he'll do well this yearQuote:

But every single one of my mates had an English team......nowt to do with telly really, just due to being absolutely besotted with the game of football. If folk want to support an English team 'cos of tv nowadays who cares...at least they love the beautiful game !
So our first choice defence (based on last season) will be this now: Kujabi - Hanlon - McPake - Clancy : this does not look too bad, apart from Kujabi may be liable for a few errors and is the weak link in there IMO, but he tries hard and shows a willingness to work for the team so hopefully he improves.
If the midfield rumours are to be true about Shiels then it would be this for the midfield : Stevenson - Shiels - Cairney - Osbourne : obviously they may be in a diamond if this is the first choice midfield, bottom line is though is that we need a good wide player or we need Galbraith and Wotherspoon to live up to their billing as great young prospects.
Any rumours surrounding a striker other than John Sutton?
back to your midfield formation, and of course this is only an opinion: Sheils--stick on, as we know he tries like a lion and has the skill. Cairney-- untried, but PF talks well of him and he apparently "wants the ball" and tries to make things happen, also he scored 15 goals last year, not bad fi a midfielder (a young Pat McGinley in the making?) . the two you mention about their billing? last chance saloon IFAIC, and the other 2, well, what can I say.? more midfielders please mister Fenlon, although this may not matter a jot to me , on the 13th o' July!
Danny Galbraith was a striker at Man Utd, he was young and spoken of well. Potential isn't always fulfilled.
And Colin Murdoch, well, he was dire. But slotted a nice penalty away.
Guess you cried when we signed a failed striker like Anthony Stokes?
Are you gutted we've signed James Mcpake from a league 1 team that didn't give him a game in the championship?
Is Rob Jones forgotten about I mean Grimsby isn't exactly a marvelous team?
all this talk of deano joining us again is welcome but im not ashamed to admit i was 1 of the posters on here who whould stick the boot in so to speak regarding his reliability, i seen deano have great games followed by 5 stinkers, maybe cos of his age? he wasnt mature enough but i what i saw on highlights last season and im gonna say again "highlights" has he got better or have we all forgotten he was an enigma 1st time round, clearly talented player but worthy of a starting place every week? id like to think so however, so just asking:wink:
I was just using last seasons apparent first choice midfield as a guideline, hopefully we can get better players in, but I fear this rebuilding job will take more than one transfer window. At the very least we need a striker, a goalie and a winger, and we need to inject some pace in the team.
striker - Doyle (or am I missing something)
