I assume the third knight on d5 should be a pawn.

There shouldn't have been a knight on b1, but actually I don't think either knight matters.

Moves to get here: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.c3 dxc3 5.Nxc3 Bc5 6.Bc4 d6 7.Qb3 Qd7 8.Nd5 Na5?

Ok, here's a hint:

Qc3 attacks both the knight and threatens to trap the rook with Qxg7. White can come out a knight for a rook ahead after it's all said and done.
