Rico Lewis has challenged Manchester City's players to aim for the quadruple after a perfect start to their Premier League campaign.
Pep Guardiola's side began their title defence with a 3-0 victory at Turf Moor on Friday night. Lewis came into the side and played a starring role from left-back.

Lewis was struck by an object from the crowd during the win but said he couldn't let the incident affect him on the field.
Lewis, who has agreed the terms of a new six-year contract at the Etihad, said: “Obviously when you're in the game you can't really focus on that. It was just something I had to deal with at the time.
“It's just an incident. It’s unfortunate it happened to me but it happens to a lot of players - which is not a good thing. But there's nothing really much you can do about it. You’ve just got to ignore it and then hope it’ll get sorted at the end of the game.
“We’re very happy, because we’ve come away with what we needed, which is three points. Coming here to a side like Burnley, where they've just been promoted, they’re going
