"Massive moment. Massive occasion. We're looking forward to it," Thomas Frank asserted a little more than 24 hours before Tottenham's first appearance in the UEFA Super Cup.
The Dane has the opportunity to earn his first piece of silverware just months into the job, after predecessor Ange Postecoglou inspired the conclusion of our 17-year trophy drought in May.
A 1-0 win over Manchester United means we're involved in the continental Super Cup for the first time, with European champions Paris Saint-Germain, an utterly imperious unit, our daunting opponents in the north east of Italy.
Some may fear for the Lilywhites given what we saw in Munich last week, although Frank is set to welcome back a pair of key players to his matchday squad on Wednesday. In addition, the new boss has already laid down the law on the disciplinary front, opting against picking Yves Bissouma in his 22-man squad due to persistent lateness.
Biss has to be on the chopping block, and here's how Spurs could line up in Udine for the Super Cup.
Tottenham predicted lineup vs PSG (4-2-3-1)
Goalkeepers & Defenders
Guglielmo Vicario (GK) - This is set to be an emotional occasion for our No. 1, who was born in Udine and started his senior career with Udinese.
Pedro Porro (RB) - The technically supreme Spanish full-back has a key role to play for Frank's side this term, especially in possession. However, his one-on-one defending is set to be tested relentlessly against Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Cristian Romero (CB) - Romero is expected to captain the side on Wednesday, with Frank confirming that Son Heung-min's successor will be revealed in Udine.
Micky van de Ven (CB) - Van de Ven's timing when he jumps into midfield has to be spot on, because this PSG frontline are master manipulators. I trust this defensive pairing to offer the best version of themselves, and give us the best chance.
Djed Spence (LB) - Frank said Destiny Udogie is "close" to full fitness, which is good news for Saturday, but means he probably won't start in the Super Cup.
Midfielders
Joao Palhinha (CM) - The newest arrival appeared for the first time in Lilywhite last week at Bayern Munich, his parent club. We can only hope for an improvement, but I'm confident will see a more assertive iteration of Palhinha here.
Rodrigo Bentancur (CM) - Frank has several options to partner Palhinha, but he's quickly taken to Bentancur. It looks like the Uruguayan will be the starter to kick-off the new manager's reign.
Pape Matar Sarr (AM) - Sarr isn't going to be the starting No. 10 throughout 2025/26, but he's been excellent in pre-season and will be important in disrupting PSG's rhythm here.
Forwards
Mohammed Kudus (RW) - Kudus has made a positive early impression, and was one of the few bright sparks against Bayern last week. The Ghanaian will be keen to showcase his stuff against the world's best in Udine.
Dominic Solanke (ST) - Solanke, who hasn't featured since the win at Reading due to an ankle injury, has travelled and trained ahead of Wednesday's game, and it looks like he might be ready to return to Frank's starting XI.
Wilson Odobert (LW) - The manager is reportedly a fan, and this Spurs side, in the absence of a playmaking No. 10, requires magic in wide areas. Odobert has lovely feet, and I can envisage him troubling Achraf Hakimi if he's able to isolate the Moroccan full-back.
