3 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.

4 w. ago Mountainhead to See How They Run: the seven best films to watch on TV this week

Jesse Armstrong’s hilariously awkward tech bro satire sees Steve Carell and Jason Schwartzman plot world domination, while a starry, Agatha Christie-inspired whodunnit is tons of funIn Jesse Armstrong’s squirmingly funny satire, four tech moguls gather at a retreat called Mountainhead (a wry nod to Ayn Rand’s paean to individualism The Fountainhead). When the launch of a deep-fake tool by Cory Michael Smith’s billionaire Venis plunges the world into financial and social meltdown, he and his alpha male peers – Jeff (Ramy Youssef), Randall (Steve Carell) and their host Souper (Jason Schwartzman) – insouciantly ponder exploiting this “moment of creative destruction” and taking over the world. As in Succession, Armstrong has a keen eye for the supercilious world of the super-rich, where people are expendable and petty grievances can be dressed up as utopianism.
