Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp says Manchester City are the best team in world football, despite their current third-place position in the Premier League.
League leaders Liverpool travel to face the defending champions at the Etihad on Thursday, live on Sky Sports, with seven points separating the two sides in the table.
Tottenham moved above City into second place on Tuesday with a 3-0 win over Cardiff but Klopp insists the champions are still the team to beat this season.
“It is a normal game against Manchester City but a very difficult one, one of the most difficult you can play in modern football,” he said.

“The opponent is, for me, still the best in the world.”
