2 w. ago PSG 2.0 have potential to dominate but young stars could be lured away | Nick Ames

Despite Champions League triumph, the likes of Désiré Doué and Bradley Barcola may not stay put in ParisAs the hundreds of VIP guests at Uefa’s official Champions League final dinner listened attentively, Aleksander Ceferin addressed his audience. It was the night before Paris Saint-Germain eviscerated Inter and, taking the floor before the starters were served at Munich’s Paulaner am Nockherberg brewery, he elected to keep his predictions general. “Tomorrow we play the best game a club could ever play,” he enthused. “The one who wins tomorrow will be the best club in the world.”Ceferin’s wording was no accident. The final took place against the context of Uefa’s continuing tensions with Fifa and, most pertinent, the imminent rebirth of the Club World Cup.

3 w. ago Georgina Hayden’s recipe for spinach, trout and caper dutch baby

This giant, herby yorkshire pudding-alike can be prepped ahead and served for brunch with lots of creme fraiche and smoked trout on the sideHow do you feel about the B word? Brunch, that is. Sure, it’s a made-up meal, but on a bank holiday, when that extra day feels like the best gift ever, it’s a meal that I like to adhere to. A slow morning, hopefully featuring some sun and all the socialising. There also seems to be less pressure with a brunch, compared with, say, a roast dinner. Whatever time you serve it, your guests will be thrilled. Throw in a bit of drama with this Dutch baby. You can even make the batter and spiked creme fraiche in advance, so it’s pretty stress-free, too, leaving you to have a natter with friends or curl up and read the paper. Heaven.
