Serial trophy-winning midfielder Javier Mascherano has revealed why he prefers Liverpool to Barcelona.
Liverpool extended their run at the top of the Premier League table to 22 points by beating Southampton 4-0 at Anfield on Saturday.
It's the biggest lead that a team has had at the end of a day in English top-flight in history.
Jurgen Klopp's side are being likened to some of the greatest teams Europe has ever seen.
One player who would know about great teams is former Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano.
Speaking to CNN, Mascherano said: "I obviously have a lot of love for Barcelona, I spent the best years of my career there but I would choose Liverpool.
"I feel something special for them. Yes, right now is the best in the world, Liverpool represents me a lot."
Barcelona can half Madrid's lead when they play Levante on Sunday evening at 8pm.
