I know its not long to wait but perhaps davey is thinking a midfield 3 of ADS, Colace and Andranik gives us a solid centre, and with JCR and Hamill playing as out and out wingers, with mifsud in attack?? Away from home, in a derby, perhaps he's thinking thats the safer option? As long as JCR/Hamil can support Mifsud then could be a very dynamic attatck with plenty of pace.... ... Probably not. But it worked for Chelsea under Jose....!
RE: We're not Chelsea, and Davey isn't Jose Good idea but Mifsud is a midget, can't really play balls up to him on his own. That job would be for Bogdanovic and Mifsud doesn't want to play on the wing. Think it will be, and should be a 4-4-2 myself.
The lower down the leagues you go.... The simpler the formation should be. No point overcomplicating things, if the players and coach aren't good enough. Just ask Mike Bassett.
