Lyon manager Remi Garde has admitted that he dreams of winning the Ligue 1 title "every night".

Garde's side are currently two points clear of Marseille at the top of the table following nine wins and just two defeats from their opening 15 games.

"I dream of the title every night when I'm going to sleep and I hope it's the same for my players, but dreaming of something doesn't mean we've become big headed and that it will come easily to us," the 46-year-old told Ligue 1's official website.

Lyon can maintain their place at the top of the standings on Sunday when they travel to St Etienne.
