Position of a relative clause
Hello everyone, have a great night.
I have a sentence which is that
"From the present team, Can Mourinho create a team which will be stronger than Chelsea? "
I want to order this question. But I am not sure about how to do it.
Is it
"Can Mourinho create a team which will be stronger than Chelsea from the present team?"
or
"Can Mourinho create a team from the present team which will be stronger than Chelsea?"
I think, the first one is correct, because "a team" and "from the present team" is not a whole part. That's why we can separate them from each other.
What do you think? Thanks..
