Let's see our level vs probably the best team after almost 2bnd spend we should looking like them - dominant but we are nowhere near them they are football project with top players and directors . Either Maresca will be hit hard by reality like Real Madrid, or he will show that the criticism is undeserved and deserve credits  if he manage to win  this somehow .

Hopefully. For years waiting for that positive comment from Bulgaria.

I can't believe. Until now. We're in the Club FIFA World Cup finals.

Let's enjoy it. Until the end.

Job's not finished.

Funny how PSG get to play two supercups, against us as the Conference League winners and then Spurs as the EL winners.

and do not forget the 2nd edition of the newly revived Intercontinental Cup (winning the IC last December is why Real Madrid (they beat Pachuca 3 nil in the final) still have a gold FIFA badge on their kits)

PSG, IF they beat us, would be on course to have the best trophy linear run of any club in football history

they are on track to very likely win (all in a row) 10 straight trophies (or more, and IF they win the CL again and thus likely the 2026 UEFA Super Cup, they will be the first team ever to win a SAME SEASON Septuple, and if France had not ditched their Coupe de Ligue (a secondary domestic cup like our League Cup), it could have been a same season Octuple (this World Club Cup is part of the 2024-25 season, so doesn't count towards the same season record, the only way to get a same season Octuple is to so it 4 years from now, in the 2028-29 seaon, and IF an English club did that, they would, due to our 2nd domestic same season League Cup, in THEORY could do a same season NONTUPLE (9 trophies. all in the same season, which is basically impossible due to the World Club Cup only played once every 4 years, so a team HAS to win back to back CLs, has to win all 3 domestic cups ie Community Shield, League Cup, FA Cup (and has to qualify for the CS via the previous year's efforts) has to win the league, plus win that 2nd in a row CL (the first CL is needws to play in the UEFA Super Cup and the IC) and then, to wrap it up, win the FIFA World Clup Cup. That would make NINE SAME SEASON TROPHIES in 2028-29 (all other Big 5 leagues can only win eight same season trophies in theory in 2028-29)

PSG, In order are tracking to a likely (IF they win Sunday) 10 straight trophies over a 2 season run

(italics are trophies repeated in the run)

1. 2024 Trophée des Champions aka the French Super Cup (played January 5, 2025 in Doha)

2. 2024-25 Ligue 1

3. 2024-25 Coupe de France

4. 2024-25 UEFA Champions League

5. 2025 FIFA World Club Cup

6. 2025 UEFA Super Cup

7. 2025 FIFA Intercontinental Cup

8. 2025 Trophée des Champions (played in January 2026)

9. 2025-26 Ligue 1

10. 2025-26 Coupe de France

then

IF they win the CL in 2025-2026

they likely keep the streak going, as they will be massive favourites to win the next 5 trophies after that 2nd-in-a-row CL win

11. 2025-26 CL

12. 2026 UEFA Super Cup (new season)

13. 2026 FIFA Intercontinetal Cup

14. 2026 Trophée des Champions (played in January 2027)

15. 2026-27 Ligue 1

16. 2026-27 Coupe de France

 

then we are back to a CL win needed in 2026-27 to keep it all going

The 2025 FIFA Intercontinental Cup will be the second edition of the FIFA Intercontinental Cup, an annual club association football tournament organised by FIFA. The tournament will comprise the six teams that won the previous edition of the continental championships in each FIFA confederation, playing each other in a single-elimination bracket. The last three matches will take place at a neutral venue from 10 to 17 December 2025.

The tournament broadly maintains the format of the previous annual versions of the FIFA Club World Cup, which was expanded and reorganised into a quadrennial tournament with more entrants, with the exception of changes to venues for the initial rounds.

Real Madrid are the defending champions, but they are not able to defend their title after being eliminated by Arsenal in the quarter-finals of the 2024–25 UEFA Champions League.

Didn't Maresca say at his press conference that Caicedo did not train?

I'm not convinced it's correct to say that this will be the second edition. What has been known as the club World Cup in more recent seasons was originally called the Intercontinental Cup. Right from the days when it was a straight match up between the champions of Europe and South America.
