We are committed to representing FIFA at the world club championship in Qatar. We enter at the semi final stage. Tournament takes place some time in December

Fucking Hell. More games!
 
We were the last English team to win it.

We’ve only played in it once and lost to a South American team. I don’t think a British team has won it yet?

Googled: we lost to Soa Paula in 2005 and the Scum won it in 2008
 
Yep I used their more acceptable alternative name [emoji23]

I think we also previously lost to Fluminese before that ? Was called inter continental cup back then I thought.

Pretty sure that we've lost to both Flamingo of Brazil (with Zico at the helm) and Independente of Argentina back in the 80's as well. And we had about 17 goals ludicrously disallowed back in the 2005 final.

Although this has no real bearing in the grand scheme of things, I do want to win it so that we can finally say that we are the world club cup champions at last... Pisses me off that we haven't been able to say it yet.
 
League and CL priority, 2nd string 11 in all the other competitions.

I actually want to win a few "smaller" trophies next season. That's the nice thing about winning the CL and finishing in the top 2 in the EPL – we have a chance for 7 trophies next season and some of them can be won with just 1 or 2 games. So why not? Let's get our players used to lifting cups.
 
We will take a full squad, I can’t see the likes of mane and salah wanting to miss out on this.

Yeah, obviously this will mean less than a trophy like the Champs league or Premier league, or even the FA cup. But I bet the players would still get a nice kick out of being the World Club champs. I have a feeling the upcoming supercup against Chelsea will be properly contested too, and since Guardiola included the Charity shield as part of last year's 'Quadruple' Mekon face palm meme I think we'll make a sincere effort at taking that off them too (after which it will suddenly drop in value again). Yes, lets win all the stuff!
 
Thing is it's slap bang in the middle of the season. We could do without the travel, distraction and possible injuries.
