Liverpool veteran Jamie Carragher has given the thumbs up to manager Roy Hdogson's transfer dealings.
Hodgson, 63, arrived at Anfield this summer and immediately tried to reshape the squad under serious financial constraints.
Portugal star Raul Meireles, Fulham's Paul Konchesky, ex-Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole, Middlesbrough's Brad Jones, ex-Standard Liege attacker Milan Jovanovic, Juventus' Christian Poulsen and Rangers centre-back Danny Wilson were all brought in this summer, with Fabio Aurelio also being re-signed.
Carragher believes the players are of the right calibre to make the club competitive for a Champions League qualifying spot.
He said: "I think he has done very well but time will tell. You have to judge signings after Christmas - good or bad.
"We've started quite nicely and hopefully the couple of players we have brought in [late on] will help.
"Everyone realized we needed a left-back so Konchesky came in and Raul Meireles coming in is something we can all look forward to.
"Maybe he can replace the Xabi Alonso/Aquilani-type of player so I think it is looking okay."
