I voted Reed at CM by accident (fat fingered the wrong selection), but I do feel like Christie - Hector - Ream - Odoi it probably our best back four (Bryan or MLM can make appearances as needed for Christie and Ream respectively or as subs), but that the role Arter is currently holding is the issue. A BIG maybe, but if KMAC has it in him, can he play DM and we let Cairney and Reed run rampant as CM/AM partnership? Just a whirlwind thought, I could genuinely be way off because Reed is a great DM.

Reed seems like a great DM, but I want to see a better win-loss record and goal difference to be convinced. I was a fan of Kalas as RCB too, but he had a similar problem of a poor win-loss record when he was in the XI. Likewise Odoi and KMac don't seem like the best players in the squad, but their win-loss records are very good so maybe very are much better than I and others realise.

Difficult, can't vote for any of the options. I think we have to continue with Christie Hector Ream Odoi, the attack need Christe .
