Man City ace Sterling: Right time to go back and BEAT Liverpool

Manchester City attacker Raheem Sterling is confident they can upset Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.

Champions City have claimed victory just ONCE at Anfield since 1981 — and that was 16 years ago.

But former Reds winger Sterling, 24, told Sport360: “At first it was hard going back. But now it's time to go there and produce.

“When we operate to our best as a team, attacking and defensively, then we are frightening. We just need to go there and play confidently. We know they are a good team but we are also a good team and we will give it everything.

“I see this as a game where you need to simply focus on your individual performances first and the collective performances. The rest will take care of itself.

“I think we have had difficult times there as a team but last season we went there and could have got the win at the end."
