After Manchester United ousted Liverpool in the International Champions Cup final on Monday night, the mind games quickly began between Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers and Louis van Gaal.
Rodgers issued a warning to Van Gaal, letting him know that the English game will be much tougher than he may have expected after United cakewalked through their pre-season schedule.
That's what the Star leads with, along with Sunderland's capture of Jack Rodwell.

The Mirror instead focuses on revelations that Barcelona were interested in Luis Suarez prior to the World Cup. And not without a biting reference, of course.
