Surely Bobby Reid won't be playing, he was playing for Jamaica Thursday morning.
We need to know who has returned fit ad ready to play from international duty.
However some changes from the Coventry match will have to be made and I am thinking of:-
Rodak
Odoi Tosin Mawson Bryan
Reed Seri
Chalobah
Wilson Mitro Kebano
If Calvalho or Cairney is ready to comeback then one of them comes off the bench at half time to replace Chalobah.
I think that the team suggested by the OP is likely and it is noticeable that it includes only one of our five summer signings.
We are not doing too well in the transfer maket are we.

Interesting it would mean five players from the £100m transfers of 2018 would be playing on the weekend (four for FFC and one for Napoli) and seven from the other £150m over the other seasons. Lesson transfers take time to bed in and we wrote off players too fast.
The OP has the team I think, I would swap Wilson for Reid though.
BDR for Kebano
Chalobah to join the other two in midfield as that's where the battle we be won
Would always favour Robinson over Bryan but playing Joe does not weaken us.
Wilson needs to be played more centrally, he's not utilised well out wide.
Wilson has to play more central, Mawson and Reed should be definite starters, and Kebano has to play.
I would prefer Rodak in goal but I doubt that will happen as in my opinion for some bizarre reason the manager favours Gazza.

Anyone picking Odoi over Tete when it's likely he's fit needs sectioning instantly
If Tete is fit and ready for action he has to start, he is a quality player, and Premier Division standard.
If anyone needs sectioning please let me know and I shall make suitable arrangements.
I would go
——————-Rodak—————
——Tosin—-Mawson—Ream—
Tete——Seri—Chalobah—-Robinson
——Wilson—-Mitro——Carvalho—
When and if Kongolo gets fit, he replaces Ream
TC fights for one of the 2 in the middle of midfield but he he must be 100% fit
Bryan rotates with Robinson so if not 100%, Bryan plays
Reed rotates with Ser and Chalobah so if either not 100% fit, Reed plays.
I am ok if Silva prefers Gazz to Rodak, he knows best.

Agree with this but unlikely Rodak will play and Ream will be dropped. Hopefully Fabio is fit and replaces BDR who has been shocking recently
I think Tim will play. Rodak you would think so.
Well TC is fit and will be in the squad, Silva himself has confirmed it. Interesting to see where he fits in and who makes way for him to be honest
-If Tete is fit enough then put him straight back in.
-Tosin back in and partnering Mawson
-Bryan instead of Robinson (who sits on the bench)
-Chalobah in for Onomah
-Assuming Carvalho is not fit, then Wilson can move into Chalobah position if we are chasing a goal (Cairney also an option it seems)
I can see Seri and Reed as our two midfielders with Cairney ahead of them at some point this season. With Wilson on the right and Fabio on the left- I think Fabio will do well there, but he was awesome down the centre when he was fit

Or that the majority of the 2018 transfers were championship quality, not Premier League 😈

Nope, the only lesson here is that we wasted a fortune on players that weren't good enough for the Premier League but seem to be good enough for a top 6 finish in the Championship. Most of them will have to be replaced with better players if we're promoted, unless we want to yoyo straight back down again.
Rodak
Odoi Tosin Ream Bryan
Seri Reed
Wilson Onomah Kebano
Mitrovic
Gazza, Mawson, Christie, Chalobah, Cairney, Cav, Muniz
Sorry Facts that midfield will be stretched, and Stefan will be making a mark
Why not bring in Christie if Tete is not fit, at least it is a natural position,
Sorry loved both Ream and Odoi, but think they need to be back ups

What do you infer by the words take time to bed in. What do you think we are running at Fulham a holiday camp. We buy players to make an impact and improve the team not Fanny around making excuses for them, they should be apologising if they fail to make an impact.
Jimmy Greaves scored a goal in every single team he made his debut for including every level of England teams. He didn't Fanny around or need to bed in, what do you think players are plants.
Brian Clough, Jim Smith, Ron Saunders, Billy Shankly, Bill Nicholson, Alf Ramsey to name but a few would all have a fit if they read that. There has to be hunger, appetite, desire and full commitment from the start otherwise you create bad habits and soft underbelly's and we all have seen enough soft underbelly's over recent years to sink a ship.
If you want to wrap people up in cotton go join the Samaritans. Every game is a competition so that means every player must compete from square one.
Tete and carvalho are scheduled to be back in contention for next week according to silva.
I'd go with a back five of rodak, Christie, tosin, mawson and bryan

I like the look of that back five. Bryan v Robinson is a tough call but given Robinson's performance after the last international break I'd rest him for this game. We're very fortunate to have these two.
For me with Carvalho & Tete injured
Rodak
Odoi Tosin Ream Bryan
Chalobah Seri Reed
Wilson Mitro Kebano
Subs - Gazzaniga Mawson Robinson Onomah Cairney BDR Muniz
