Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson admits he's a big admirer of today's opponents Manchester City.

Henderson says Liverpool's squad feel nothing but respectful towards the reigning Premier League champions Manchester City.

"If I was to pick just one word to sum up how we as a squad feel about Manchester City, it would simply be: 'respect'," he wrote in the club's matchday programme.

Of course they are an opponent we've had decent tussles with over the past couple of seasons in particular, both domestically and in Europe, but as a team here we have nothing but admiration for them.

What they've achieved as a team is something that everyone in sport, let alone just football, can look at and appreciate. They are relentless winners who have found the hunger to go again and again."
