Sadio Mane is confident table toppers Liverpool will be Premier League Champions by the end of the season.

The Reds are first on the English top flight table, with four points separating them and last season record breaking champions, Manchester City.

The Senegalese insists Jurgen Klopp's men are determined to show everyone they are good enough to be champions.

Steven Gerrard slip against Chelsea cost Liverpool the league title.

A Steven Gerrard slip against Chelsea in 2014 cost the Anfield side the title but Liverpool's number 10 believes the current crop of players are different.

Speaking to The Sun, Mane said:

“This is not a team of chokers. We will be champions. I am sure we will be champions of England. When I wake up, I don’t go to the training ground thinking we will not win.

We are determined to show we are the best team in the league.

Liverpool had the chance to win it a few years ago and did not do it but I prefer to think it helped to bring us where we are now.

Liverpool suffered their first defeat of the season against Manchester City two weeks ago but they bounced back with a 1-0 victory against Brighton last time out.

They host Crystal Palace at Anfield this weekend and will be looking to extend their lead at the top.
