Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge feels that his blossoming partnership with Luis Suarez is "almost telepathic".
The duo have notched 10 goals in just four games together this season, with Sturridge leading the Premier League scoring charts with eight strikes in total.
The England international also became the quickest Reds player in their illustrious history to score 20 goals for the club, after reaching the milestone in just 26 games since joining from Chelsea for around £12m in January.
His strike partner Suarez racked up 30 goals for the club last season, and the former Manchester City youngster has talked up a red-hot tandem that has plundered 14 goals already this term.

"It’s a natural partnership between us – it’s almost telepathic," said Sturridge told Metro.
"We get on really well on and off the pitch and I think that makes a huge difference to how we play together.
"The relationship we have means we know when to pass to each other and when we’re going to make runs.
It’s just a totally natural thing. I think it’s only going to improve the more we play together."
Both players were on target in Saturday's 4-1 win against West Bromwich Albion, with Sturridge's delightful chip supplementing a sublime Suarez hat-trick.
Apart from Sturridge, only Manchester City's Sergio Aguero has scored more than Suarez's six, despite the Uruguayan missing the first five games of the season through suspension.
The duo were recently voted as the Premier League's finest striking partnership.
