Reckon weiman will be central striker with wells being on bench Naismith played the last 3 games of last season there, and several times in 20/21 when Luton used a back-4. In 21/22 Luton did play a back-3 though. I do like your midfield though. If we could dispense with this front-3, can you imagine a diamond behind a front two. James bottom, Naismith and Knight either side, Weimann or TGH at the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Wells struggling for goals over a fair while now & Bell not looking great there last Saturday, you could well be right. Worth pointing out too that effectively we have everyone available for selection who could start in midfield; James, Knight, Naismith, Williams, Gardiner-Hickman, Weimann & King. When Dickie returns from suspension we will have a clear idea of the first choice 3 there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Naismith is the best passer of the ball we have-really has a superb range and being left footed offers a bit of balance. knight provides the energy and James provides the control. ticks all the boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With our ongoing inconsistency it is impossible to know what side will turn up? At least we do tend to play better away from home? I think it will be low scoring, 1-0 home win or 1-1. But if NP plays Naismith at the back ...any score is possible? Edited August 24, 2023 by maxjak 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
