I would love to see:

Baz
Mads THB Stephens Manning
Downes Charles
Fellows Azaz Robinson
Archer

Not sure Fellows will be done in time so Adarma in for him if not.
I think this team (plus Caspar rotating with Downes/Charles and Downs coming off the bench) will be great fun to watch when up to speed.

I would put Fraser ahead of Armstrong, on current performance.
But he's a RW, same as Fellows. Think I'd rather have Adarma cutting in off the left than Fraser who's more of an out and out wide man who goes down the line.

I don’t see Fraser as just a winger. Yes he can go down the line and put in quality crosses (2 things that Armstrong can’t do) but he also showed two seasons ago that he will drift into central positions and get goals, just as he did at Norwich on Tuesday.
Armstrong was outstanding two seasons ago but I think he did well because he had Che Adams drawing CBs out of position and helping to create space for him.
If we can create a similar system to put Armstrong through on goal then I would be happier for him to be in the team.
 
Hoping we’ll see something similar to Norwich away being honest. No point changing something that worked imo & be great to see both Archer & Stewart both get more minutes and put a run of form together.

Bazunu,
THB, Wood, Stephens
Downes,
Mads, Fraser, Charles, Manning,
Archer, Stewart

Hopefully Azaz, Jandar & Fellows available to make an impact off the bench if they’re signed in time

Doubt even if they sign in time they'd travel with the intent of playing as it would be less than 24 hours in the club but just having them signed is a morale booster for the game / fans etc

Azaz is done by all accounts so think he could well be on the bench.
 
I'd like any new signings eligible to start. Not ideal for this fixture but will help for the more important one coming up.
 
Presumably it will only be Azaz that is eligible to play. But I too would throw him straight into the mix. I don't think Still will though
