"And with the addition of Sturridge and Ince, it will only get better. Where are the doubters now? Top 6 finish I predict, if you don't like it, save this comment and post it in May. "
"Agree with Stevie that we played a good game, but say that the first half was the best we've seen this season is difficult, our opponent today was really mild. Anyway a good dedication to BR who was ill at home! I hope even for BR that 2013 will start better than it finished 2012! Happy New Year to Stevie and BR also! YNWA"
"Sunderland are improving slowly and they will not be a push over. 2 steps forward and 1 back. I would love a home win, but I can see a draw! I'm not normally this cynical, however, I will keep the faith with BR and the team!!!
"
"We played well in the first half but nothing stops us from scoring and playing well in the second half....its been the problem all season; play well one half and score, play average or bad and fail to score....consistency throughout the 90minutes please"
"3 points is great ! pity we didn't play as well in the second half. Suarez outstanding, usual suspects Agger, Gerrard, Skrtl were great! Maybe BR should stay at home Pascoe seems a nice man and we won playing less tika taka. Happy New Year Reds YNWA"
"Welldone boys on your first half proformance. But all the credit goes to Mr Suarez cos if we didn't have him this season we'd be well in the bottom half of the table. He's the most unpredictable player I have ever watched, just pure class, I just can't get enough!!!! YNWA "
"Much better today from the lads, hope they have learnt now that after Villa and Stoke we need to do more than just turn up! Every game in this lg you need to be at your very best and today 1st half we were, so just consistency needed now! Put the same effort in v sunderland and we'll have another 3 pts!"
"Just need to learn to keep up the pace in the second half, and start like this every match and get consistancy. We've shown we can play with style and passing, just need to learn consistancy again."
"WE ARE 7-5-3 in last 15 means 26pts and this is top4 form...this is consistency !!! :))...only problem is our poor begining of the season, but hopefully we pick up run of 5-6 wins and get some points back."
"great win today, great start to the game. Gerrard played well, so Allen and Suarez, and others. Sterling seems struggling and it didn't help his confidence when Suarez and Enrique yelling at him when he loses possession, would to see more of Suso attacking the goal "
"And what happened 2nd half....we couldn't pik up our game cos opp were terrible. 3 up and hour to go I would have liked to see us change a few things last 30 min. I would liked to have seen Coates come on. Big game coming up.....another tough one. Sunderland are gonna be tougher than Villa and Stoke .....lets get ready for that.
I SMELL TOFFEE....and this makes me very happy."
"Well played Stevie! Bossed the 1st half. That extra attacking threat is needed to convert this scoreline to a 5-0 but that will come. Get well soon BR. "
"Note: Stevie G supports his manager something that alot more of the fickles on here should be doing otherwise their just counter-productive to what we are trying to achieve. "
"We came, We saw, We scored.
Job done.
Got a bit sloppy second half, need to keep things tighter in midfield.
It's all about the next game, I would take an ugly, scrappy 1-0 win..no worries!
Got to show some real character for the rest of the season.
Get well soon Lads..and a slightly early Happy New Year to all Reds, the World over."
"LFCis0ne, obviously sturridge and ince will improve us. They are both promising young creative attacking players that will make an impact under BR's guidance. We are short of attack"
"Decent performance but we play well v team who let us play but we get bullied by teams like stoke, Allen looks weak we need a dembelle style holding plyr who has box to box abilities n pace n can tackle, looks line we missing out in baa he wud he the ideal target man has pace, touch n can finish but we go for someone in sturridge who is double the price but half the ability "
"WHY ARE SO MANY OF OUR FANS KICKING LUMPS OUT OF DANIEL STURRIDGE BEFORE HE'S EVEN KICKED A BALL FOR THE REDS ?? GIVE HIM A CHANCE !!! I'D GIVE IN IF WE WERE SIGNING VELLIOS, EL HADJI DIOUF, BOBBY ZAMORA OR VICTOR ANICHEBE. HE WILL SCORE GOALS FOR THE REDS !! "
"Very good three points today,tactics and team was spot on today. i was hoping i wasnt going to read people saying that br should stay at home more often, its still his tactics and style that won the game. future looks good for our club ynwa well done br and get well soon!"
"One swallow doesn't make a summer as the old saying goes. We still blow hot and cold. Once we get get a string of at least three good wins like this one on the trot then I will be a lot happier. "
"im disgusted by a lack of continuity in the plastic fans crying. BR will stay. If we lose - get behind the team - don't moan or abuse our players. YNWA - Quality Response boys"
"NOBODY'S GETTING CARRIED AWAY. YES, WE ARE INCONSISTENT, BUT IT'S A WIN AWAY FROM HOME, 3 POINTS AND A CLEAN SHEET. I'VE SEEN THE REDS PLAY BETTER AND LOSE OR DOMINATE GAMES AND DRAW SO LET'S ENJOY THE WIN REGARDLESS OF CIRSTANCES. NO NEED FOR THE DOOM AND GLOOM. "
"Wow! How bad are QPR? Answer, very. That's probably one of the worst performances given by a professional side never mind an EPL team. Still we still needed to put them away. Luis was superb, but it was good to see Joe Allen but in a better performance."
"Reina
Johnson agger skrtel Enrique
Lucas gerrard
Schneider Walcott sturridge
Surez
Subs
Sterling downing Coates Assaidi Sahin hendo n barini
Rodgers now go out and get em
"
"Let's see if we can do this to the likes of City, Utd, Arsenal or Spurs before we get ahead of ourselves. A good 3 points but it was against lowly QPR, let's be humble and enjoy a win when we get it YNWA"
"Stevie you are an inspiration and such a gentleman. We will be a sad and lonely club without your presence. Happy New Year to you and your family and the very best for 2013. YNWA"
"Besides the 3 great goals my favorite moment was when Allen got thugged off the ball and Stevie won it back and dumped the guy with a backhand slap! Priceless!"
"Sorry for sounding so cynical after a grate win but I'm not pulling out the party dresses yet until we have a winning streak of a minimum of three games."
"Gerrard masterclass, Suarez magic !
As I have said on here afew times b4. I wouldn't change Luis for any striker in the world, he is pure class !
YNWA"
"We are going nowhere Stevie, if you think that's the best half of the season. If the opponent stands on the sideline and we score, is it really due to the quality of our play? Also if it is that fantastic, is it ok to play just the one half? Summary: Simple rubbish change to their rubbish defence and we stop!"
"Thought we completely outclassed QPR today, it was a great team performance. Some of the passing and movement was superb. We are improving there is no doubt. Hope Brendan, Brad Jones and others who are unwell get better soon."
"WOW. some people on here just cant be happy, well played reds and I hope some of the fans on here make a news years resolution to smile more and be more supportive of this great club!"
"Good result. Suarez is something else honestly the man is next level !!! Best in premiership by far!! Man u aresenal man city next 3 away games ....tough !!!!!"
"superb first half,redknapp changed it to three centre halfs at the break,was in the bag by then,i just cant get enough,ijust cant get enough.!!luis suarez !!!"
"Lonewar69 It was a good first half thanks to Luis but we should have had plenty more goals. We tend to take our foot off the peddle and against better teams we will become unstuck. Too many times we make the wrong choice in the opposition pen area. We need more killer instinct."
"I also think that we still light weight in certain areas. Our players get brushed off too easily apart from Enrique. I looked at Allen, Sterling, Downing and Suso today and they seemed to be bullied a lot. Thats why we lose to Teams like Stoke."
"This is a 90 minute game and not 45. We will get punished by better teams. Although we got three goals in the first half thanks to magical Luis we could have got a lot more with if we took the right options in the opposition pea area. We still miss that kileer insticnt apart from Luis."
"we can't consider this victory as a progress indicator, with all do respect, we played QPR, keep your heads down,we must be better than this, but a win is a win, well done lads, YNWA"
"Great to get the win but QPR were very bad in the first half and made us look better than we are.They played better in the second half and we looked more ourselves, decidedly average but with several excellent players. "
"I think a win was the only result that was acceptable. QPR is a team lacking confidence and we should have scored a few more. Lets not get carried away with this win as next game will be a good test. Hopefully we can win that one. "
"Just dont get it ya ns.fans head.Why say something negative when in ya brain got the positive side.poor decision to pick the s#it-one from ya head.suddenly its stupidity with all crap-words."
"1st half unstopable..2nd half had that ill feeling we were going to conceed trying to park the bus..should have went on and destroyed them..hope we bring this chokehold attacking prowess to anfield and dispose of sunderland "
"Sorry Stevie but I have definitely seen better performances from LFC (this campaign). QPR were nothing short of ordinary and would have struggled in the Championship on that performance. On a good note, LFC remained composed and just did what they were there to do...and that's get a result. Not impressed with Allen and Henderson!"
"Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone."
"Good win and fine 2st halfperformance. To be up there competing at the top though it needs 90 minutes not 45 and not every 3 or 4 games but every one. Sturridge and Ince will improve the squad as we lack depth, I mean Carragher? come on?"
"Typo-i mean 1st half performance and further the ones being brought in have potential and will increase competition with others plus i expect a few to be sent packing."
"Good 1st half - but QPR were extremely poor. BUT, again, we gave the ball away so much in the 2nd and caused our own problems - particularly Joe Allen; he has to improve massively to be worth a place. I hope that he's not going to be one of those players who just can't hack it in a top club - we've enough of those already IMO."
"I hope BR was watching on the telly (sure he was) That 2nd half was poor! Good win, but players are getting into the habit of switching off in the 2nd half, which is worrying. So you can't say 'we played our best half', when it's a game of 2. Especially when it's Suarez who won the game for the team...!"
"Luis7?9... Are you for real? We got out played by a stoke team that were a million times better then we play QPR win and you think we are improving!! Your a joke mate... Sturridge is average and Ince will be class 1 day but we need players for the now!!! Bet you we have a hard time vs Sunderland I think 1 - 1 just watch top half finish with 9th place ours "
"Oh and the best first half performance was when I was at Anfield watching the Fulham game anyone agree? We were class vs Fulham shame we can't play QPR and Fulham every week we might make top 4 then lol"
"Steven G The Great Captain, Suarez the natural goal scorer! but we have to prove this to other teams not only to the lowly positioned teams like QPR. Keep it up, YNWA"
"Definitely LFC played REALLY FOOTBALL this time, but still it was far below what LFC is CAPABLE to do on the pitch. I have total TRUST in the actual team playing STRENGTH, which we have not yet seen in full mode. When we would see the FULL strength, LFC will NEVER be that down in the league table behind teams like West Brom, Everton and Stoke."
"I was waiting for a plonker to reply to my comment and up pops Ben #JFT96. He is a fantasy fan that suggests we need players for the "now". I can only assume that by this you mean a Neymar or Cavani type player. I would advise you to wake up and get a reality check. Good day sir! :)"
