Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said Luis Suarez is one of the best strikers in the world after the Uruguayan scored four times in Wednesday night's 5-1 win at home to Norwich.
Liverpool returned to the top four of the Premier League with the win over Norwich, and Suarez has now scored 11 goals in his last four appearances against the Canaries.
The former Ajax forward also became the first player in Premier League history to score three hat-tricks against one club, and Rodgers told reporters after the impressive performance: "I always like to talk about the team but I think you've got to hold Luis up as one of the best strikers in the world.
"It was an incredible performance. It was sheer brilliance, it was a joy for me to watch the team, I thought technically we were very good but to witness that, it was a remarkable individual performance.
"The modern-day world-class operators, it's all about their numbers and what they produce and you look at the goals he scored and the assist he made, it was a pleasure to watch."
Rodgers also believes Suarez can get even better, adding: "You look at Luis, he's only 26 and I really think he'll make improvements to his game over the coming years.
"He's probably the happiest he's been here, you look at him and the maturity in his performance.
"I think this club suits him perfectly and I still think his best years are going to be here because of everything.
"The profile of the club, the connection with the supporters, Anfield itself, you can see it's a hand in glove fit for him and the type of football we're trying to play allows him to operate in those spaces we create."
