How Huddersfield Town's bold £48 million team could line up next season - according to Football Manager

While it's been rather a treat having the Bundesliga back on our TV screens of late, it's still not quite enough to fill the gaping void left by the lack of Championship football, and the chances of Huddersfield Town resuming their 2019/20 season still look uncertain.

For a bit of fun in the meantime, we fired up the latest edition of Football Manager, and simulated the game beyond the summer and into the future. We had a look at the starting XI, key subs and manager it predicts will be on show for the Terriers on the opening day of the 2020/21 campaign.

3. RB: Florent Hadergjonaj

A strange one, here. He's transfer-listed by request, but still starts the match over a fully fit Danny Simpson, who's just signed a new deal. Perhaps he's being put in the shop window. | Getty Images Photo: George Wood
