And what would the best starting line up be? Should have a decent bench too.

Trafford
Nico O
Rico
THB
Foden
Rogers
Namecha
McAtee
Sancho
Palmer
Delap

Need some help here as I am sure there are more. Think there is a wing back in Germany. Oh and Diaz at Madrid
 
I reckon with this starting lineup and bench we'd have a shot at top half / pushing for Europa. But with the likelihood of injuries decimating the defence we'd hang on for PL survival ;-)

Edited with more suggestions.

K. Schmeichel
Richards
Tosin
THB
Nico O'Reilly
Lavia
Foden
F. Nmecha
Palmer
Rogers
Delap

Squad: Trafford, Slicker, Trippier, Frimpong, C. Doyle, Egan-Riley, Charles, Mee, T.Doyle, Mcatee, Sancho, Diaz, L. Nmecha, Angelino, Bobb, Gittens, A. Garcia, Bernarbe

If you wanted you could add Olise and Rabiot although not sure they were here long.

The team would definitely score enough goals to stay up the defence would be the worry… I would go 10th and comfortably above Utd

Put Egan-Riley and Shea Charles on the bench, both nominated for Championship Young player of the year and should be PL regulars in the future
 
A very decent team of ex academy players who have left and still playing. would probably finish upper mid table. Not counting the likes of Olise and Rabiot who were just passing through
Sure I’ll have missed a couple of obvious ones

Trafford

Frimpong
Harwood-Bellis
Garcia E
Angelino

Lavia
Rogers
Palmer

Diaz
Delap
Gittens

Squad from: Schmiechel, Muric, Grimshaw, Charles P (GKs)

Trippier, Mee, Tosin, Maffeo, Egan-Riley, Larios, Ogbeta, Denayer, Rekik (D)

Doyle T, Garcia A, Bernabe, Suarez, Fofana, Dele-Bashiru F, Charles S, Hodge, Gyabi, Robertson, Wright (CM)

Nmecha F, Sancho, Edozie, Forbs, Poveda, Ndala, Lopes, Pozo, Dele-Bashiru T (AM)

Iheanacho, Nmecha L (S)

I would star Aleix over Lavia, he is a solid player for Leverkusen and was great for Girona last year.
