Take it Hibs will be going with 3 CHs at the back for new season, looked good yesterday albeit against very limited opponents, Efe Daz and one other with Whit and Louis or SDG as wing backs sounds very exciting me thinks.

We're spoilt for choice with defense. Efe, Hanlon, McGreagor, Fontaine, Whitty, Lewis, Sir David and now the young lad Porteous is back (nowhere near the first team yet but he's an option and certainly one for the future).
Its the top end we are running low on, need to bring in goalscorers.

Doubt we'll have a fixed formation set up. It will depend on the opposition. We have the flexibility in defence and midfield to alter the shape.

Was Dylan being replaced due to injury??

If it is a 3-5-2 more often than not, what's the best centre 3? McGinn, Swanson, McGeough are all very attack minded, but that's my preference.

We've often looked at our best over the past few years with a 3-5-2, although this has often depended on the personnel available.
That looks to be the case next year too.
I don't think Hibs have ever had a striker comfortable playing up front on his own, so it needs to be a formation that allows us to play two strikers.

3-5-2 is the best formation IMO.
Even better that we have the players to play it

Those two would feature in any "best midfield" options imo

I know its against Montrose but some of the football we played was sublime. Some of the best its been under Lennon. I'd love to see us continue with that formation and maybe swap Swanson for Murray.

Swanson based on what he did for St Johnstone last season would have to be a stick on for a starting berth.
Murray has looked excellent in pre-season and yesterday but I'd be surprised if Lennon isn't looking at him as coming on from the bench or injury/suspension cover. And that shouldn't be seen as a slight on Fraser Murray - if the lad is ready for that rather than being earmarked for a loan then he's at a great place for this stage in his career.
If he can actually force his way into the starting XI based on performance in those appearances then I'd argue we're looking at our best prospect since Fletcher.

Imagine Murray and Boyle both coming on with their pace with 20 - 25 minutes left. Me thinks defenders would sh t themselves. Oh to have options.
