    The Daily Star on Sunday also leads on Manchester City's perfect start, while they also have an interesting piece of transfer tittle tattle. They reckon City will fight it out with Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal for Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann.

    "Yes." 

    "Pep, it's Sheikh Mansour. I want you to manage Manchester City.

    "OK. I'll do it. I need a new challenge. And the Premier League is the hardest league in the world. I need a test."
