But you need to find a way to fit Caicedo and Vitinha.“You can’t take Vitinha out of that team because for me, he’s been absolutely brilliant.”“Would you take out Fabian Ruiz?” Oladipo asked, and Mikel replied: “He’s been on fire, he’s scoring goals. Maybe Joao Neves, just maybe.”Caicedo is one of the first names on the teamsheet for Chelsea with dominant midfield performances across two campaigns.Mikel believes only Caicedo could star for the Champions League winnerstalkSPORTThe midfielder is arguably one of the best players in his positionGettyThe Ecuadorian international was named as Player and Players’ Player of the Season for the Blues in May.He played in all 38 of their Premier League fixtures, and scored in the 4-1 UEFA Conference League final win against Real Betis.Caicedo missed the win over Palmeiras but returned for the semi-final with Fluminense, where Joao Pedro netted two stunning goals.Chelsea will hope he will be fit to play against PSG after he appeared to roll his ankle late on in the 2-0 win.The 23-year-old was spotted in training on Thursday and Friday in a big boost for Maresca ahead of the upcoming final.PSG have scored 16 goals and conceded just once throughout their Club World Cup campaign in the United States.Palmer couldn’t make the cut for MikelGettyBut he has still helped Chelsea reach the final this summerGettyThey have won 4-0 on three occasions against Atletico Madrid, Inter Miami and Madrid.Only Botafogo have been able to beat them in what was a shock 1-0 victory during the group stages.Luis Enrique’s side have therefore excelled in defence and attack and will be confident of their chances this weekend.But Chelsea defender Levi Colwill isn’t reading into the notion of PSG being favourites.“They are an amazing team, but we are not Inter or Real Madrid,” he said. “They were really good. But Real Madrid are very different to us.“They don’t press like us or play like us. [PSG] can’t expect us to give them the same game. We’re going to bring different things. We’re different players. “Most people around the world would expect PSG to win but we don’t think that in this camp.“I remember the first time in this tournament when I did media I said that we’re winners – and we’ve made it this far.“That shows I’m not lying. The players have got a really top mentality and we’re really excited going into this final. It’s where we belong to be. We’re confident in ourselves to win the game.”Watch all of the FIFA Club World Cup free on DAZN.
