Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano says they're proving their title credentials after victories over Chelsea and Manchester United.

"It's good that we have beaten both Man United and Chelsea because they are very good teams," he told the liverpoolfc.tv.

"It's great for the fans and the people of the city. It's great for the team and shows we can beat anyone.

"We have improved our team. We are stronger now and working hard to progress. We have a number of players who have been together two or three years so the understanding is much better and we are showing this on the pitch."
