Liverpool midfielder Jay Spearing believes strike duo Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll are world class.
Both joined the ranks at Anfield in the January transfer window and Spearing thinks Suarez has been impressive.
The 22-year-old told BBC Radio Merseyside: "The two strikers we've brought are world class and we've paid good money for them.
"Suarez has shown already that he's very sharp in and around the box, likes to take people on and gets shots in."
He added: "He has shown in Holland, in a small amount of games, his goalscoring record is unbelievable.
"Andy Carroll has proved he can score all sorts of goals in the Premier League and has played at international level."
Liverpool's form has improved since the return of Kenny Dalglish as manager in January and a fine 3-1 victory over Manchester United on Sunday was described as the "highlight" of the season by the Scot.
The Reds have been beaten only three times in 12 matches under Dalglish and have also beaten last season's league champions Chelsea in the process.
Spearing believes Dalglish, who scored 172 goals in 515 appearances for Liverpool, has inspired the players and improved their confidence.
"He's the greatest player to come from Liverpool Football Club," said Spearing. "He has an aura and he's come in and given the lads a lot of confidence.
"He's not changed much but he's brought in his own ways of training and Steve Clarke [first-team coach] has come in and took the training and brought in new ideas.
"It just shows in the results and in the games that we're right behind the manager. We've all got a bit of confidence in ourselves, which you could say was a little bit lost in the first few months of the season.
"Since Kenny has come in a new leaf has been turned and we're looking forward now."
