AFC Wimbledon striker Jack Midson is positive going into the new season and is looking to finish in the top three.

The Dons finished 16th in their first season in the league and the players are aiming high for their second campaign.

“We’ve had a lot of chats,” Midson revealed to London24.

“We want to be more positive and say get in the top three.

“If we slip up slightly we’ll still be in the play-offs.

“We need to match everyone for work rate and we have enough skill to be up there.”
