Although Croy gives the middle of λύω for his example of the middle forms, you are much more likely to encounter the middle forms of deponent verbs (verbs which do not have active forms, but only middle forms). So instead of studying the paradigm provided by Croy, I would strongly suggest that you study a deponent verb like ἔρχομαι in order to practice the present middle endings.
Some important points to note:
Stem | Ending | Form | |
ἐρχ | ομαι | ἔρχομαι | I go, I am going |
ἐρχ | ῃ |
ἔρχῃ | you go, you are going |
ἐρχ | εται | ἔρχεται | he goes, he is going: she goes, she is going; it goes, it is going |
ἐρχ | όμεθα | ἐρχόμεθα | we go, we are going |
ἐρχ | εσθε | ἔρχεσθε | you go, you are going |
ἐρχ | ονται | ἔρχονται | they go, they are going |
