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.

10. AML: Josh Sims
It's a fresh face on the left wing too, in the shape of the rapid wide man. He signed for a very reasonable fee of £1.2m, and he's worth a fair bit more than that. | Getty Images Photo: Catherine Ivill
11. ST: Karlan Grant
Despite a number of offers from top tier sides over the summer, Huddersfield held onto their star man, and he, unsurprisingly, starts in the season's opener | Getty Images Photo: George Wood
12. ST: Tarik Elyounoussi
