Former Manchester United star Rio Ferdinand has expressed his admiration for one Liverpool player.
The Reds recently demolished Arsenal 4-0 in the Premier League on Saturday, in what was their first match back after the international break.
Sadio Mane opened the scoring at Anfield, before second half strikes from Diogo Jota, Mohamed Salah and Takumi Minamino finished the job.
Ferdinand reserved praise for one of Liverpool’s goal scorers in particular, with the ex-United centre-back a big fan of Jota.

The Portuguese international scored his sixth goal of the season in the win over the Gunners, and his fifth in the Premier League this term.
Jota’s performances have led to Ferdinand reserving special praise for his quality, and in turn why it makes him admire Liverpool so much.
“I love him,” said Ferdinand, speaking about Jota on his FIVE Youtube channel .
“That’s what I love about Liverpool. He’s not even their starting player.
“If they’re going to play their first three upfront, he doesn’t start.
“Recently, Firmino’s been the man. And I think if Klopp had a final next week, Firmino plays.
“But he’s got someone who comes in and always delivers. It’s beautiful to see.”
