I'm going for;
Gazzaniga
Odoi Tosin Ream Bryan
Reed Seri
Wilson Chalobah Kebano
Mitro
Thought Bryan did alright against Birmingham, deserves another game to see if he can hit a bit of form and make the position his own. Gone for Kebano over BDR as well.
Apart from fitness issues, I wouldn't change much until the Leeds game. The Leeds game will be important for Rodak, Christie, Hector, Mawson and Muniz to make their claim for a starting XI position.
Don't know why you've taken out BDR. Aside from keeping him in instead of kebano, I think the lineup pretty much picks itself at the moment. Positions belong to people until they lose them or get injured/suspended.
BDR is a better player than Kebano by a long way. Know people like Kebano, he's a great character and he's definitely a threat at this level, but there's no doubt who's more round and able as a footballer in my mind in terms of all round game, technique and threat in the box.
Only positions up for debate aside from that is RB where Tete would be a starter and LB where it's a close call between Robinson and Bryan.
Fitness doubts about Reed, Onomah and Carvalho, so assuming they are not available:-
Gazz.
Odoi Tosin Ream Bryan
Seri Chalobah
BDR
Wilson Mitro Kebano

Why would you want Kebano in ahead of BDR? Wilson prefers to come in off the right and BDR has great work rate and been one of our more committed players last few games. He could probably do with scoring a couple more but he offers so much more than Kebano who scores the occasional free kick which in this squad his further down the pecking order now. Personally think his a sub at best and last ditch substitution in all fairness.

I think this is a fair shout if the injuries to Fabio, Harrison, and Josh preclude them from getting in the side. Onomah v Chalobah is a very interesting discussion since they are so similar, but Chalobah seems to be a bit more quick with his football brain and Onomah may have more hold up strength. Even keel depending on what one is looking for. I really hope Harrison is okay - the poor bloke can't get a break and he is a bloody good footballer.

Agreed... although there will be a conundrum when Carvalho returns

Silva said Reed is a doubt but Wilson is fit for tomorrow
Gazz
Odoi Tosin Ream Bryan
Seri Chalobah
Wilson BDR Kebano
Mitrovic
I would actually like to see Robinson and Bryan play down the left together. Reed comes back in if fit for Kebano and we play a midfield three with BDR moving to the wing.
General points, I prefer Rodak to Gazz and Mawson for Ream- but that's just me.
Play our under 23's team they will be good enough to win!!

Simple, Reid may need a rotation after 400 minutes for Fulham and a few International Matches, keeping Reid fit for bigger matches. In addition, Kebano could do with some game. Reid is better, but not so much better that he shouldn't rotate with Kebano and there are harder games ahead that Reid is better suited (e.g. WBA).
