Rio Ferdinand insists Liverpool may not have a better time to play Manchester City despite their stuttering start to the season.
The Reds were one of the Premier League title favourites but have been slow out of the blocks this term and are down in 10th place already 13 points off of Pep Guardiola's side and 14 points off Arsenal at the summit.
City's excellent start to the season has been magnified by the stunning form of summer signing Erling Haaland who already has 15 Premier League goals in just nine matches this season.
