Liverpool right-back Glen Johnson has revealed that he feels the present Reds squad is the best since his move to the club from Portsmouth in 2009.
The Merseyside club thrashed Fulham 4-0 on Saturday at Anfield, courtesy of a Fernando Amorebieta own goal, a Martin Skrtel header and a Luis Suarez brace.
The win helped Liverpool to bounce back from their 2-0 loss against Arsenal on 2nd November and lifted the club to second place in the Premier League standings with 23 points from 11 matches.
And Johnson believes that the current Liverpool crop is the best during his tenure at Anfield.

The England international also praised his side for returning to winning ways with a clean sheet.
"We've had some fantastic players in the past that have obviously moved on", he explained to his club’s official site.
"But in terms of a squad and starting eleven, I think it's the best since I've been around.
"Every good team bounces back after a disappointing result. To do that with a clean sheet and four goals is an ideal day.”
Johnson, who is contracted with Liverpool until 2015, has made 149 appearances in all competitions for the club, netting eight times.
