The summer transfer window is now closed and Posh can no longer make any changes to their squad until January at the earliest.
There have been comings and goings over the summer but with McCann now getting some certainty over the make-up of his squad, the Peterborough Telegraph has decided to speculate at what a first-choice starting line-up could look like.
in choosing this line-up, I have chosen from all of the players in the squad, regardless of their current availability status and will be employing a back three with a number 10 behind two strikers.
5. NATHAN THOMPSON
Brings an experienced head, calmness, ability on the ball and a bit of intelligence to the backline. Photo: Joe Dent
6. JOE WARD
One of the best players at the club. Has a telepathic understanding with Jonson Clarke-Harris in particular. Posh need him to sign his new contract and quick. Photo: Joe Dent
7. JACK TAYLOR
Looks fit and strong this season and will no doubt dominate most midfields he comes up against in League One. Photo: Joe Dent
8. BEN THOMPSON
An inspired addition. Brings energy to the midfield and can play in a couple of different positions. Photo: Joe Dent
