WORCESTER City's three-prong forward approach -- fast becoming commonplace at St George's Lane -- has received the thumbs up from Adam Webster.
Manager Andy Preece has gone offensive-minded in City's previous home fixtures by selecting three in attack.
Webster, Leon Kelly and Mark Danks worked as a trio with Workington the guests, and against Stafford and Kettering, midfield creator George Clegg was pushed forward.
On Saturday, Kelly roamed the right flank and Danks teased down the opposite side, while Webster performed target-man and link-up duties.
"By all means, it can work," insists Webster. "I don't see why not. It gives us three people to pick from and gives us an option to get the ball out wide.
"With Leon's pace, he can beat defenders when the ball is knocked down the channel. On the other side, Danks can do his tricks and come into the centre.
"We've played that way a few times now. We may need to work on it quite a lot if that's the way it's going to be.
"If we are not playing three up front, then the gaffer will get one of the midfielders and pick somebody who can bomb on past our forwards and get behind the defenders as well.
"That midfielder may float out wide for five minutes or perhaps make runs out wide. The gaffer has got two options to choose from.
"At the moment, I think he's choosing one option for one game and changing it for another."
Webster is already witnessing at close quarters the blistering impact made by Danks.
For his goal on Saturday, the 21-year-old showed brute strength to dispose veteran Darren Edmondson, then coolly skirted around stopper Adam Collin before finishing with aplomb.
Danks is the non-league equivalent of England's Alan Smith --small, pacy and with a clinical eye for goal.
He is also aggressive and bites into tackles, which is not a bad thing. Danks' competitive edge lends to his natural game.
He may pick up yellow cards along the way, but City supporters won't bat an eyelid if the ex-Forest Green ace continues to bulge the net.
Webster said: "Mark is bringing a different dimension to the way we play. He is nipping in between strikers and making clever runs.
"His movement is good. Sometimes he goes out wide and then he comes in. He also picks up the second balls and that's important for the other strike partner who is challenging the big centre-half."
City head to Stalybridge Celtic tonight with high hopes of picking up more points to climb the Nationwide North table.
Following successive away wins at Gainsborough and Hin-ckley, Webster is confident that Worcester can make great strides with three more points at Bower Fold.
Webster said: "We've got two away wins which has given us a bit of confidence.
"That's two good away wins and now we've got a tough trip to Stalybridge. We wanted to win (against Workington) to keep the pressure on teams above and below us.
"We could win tonight and car-ry on winning throughout February. You never know. We have just got to keep getting points and see where that takes us."
