AM) Philippe Coutinho – 8/10
Scored the first; made the second. Anyone that says this man doesn’t deserve his PFA nominations clearly doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The Brazilian is the heartbeat of this Liverpool team who can’t exist without him.
AM) Raheem Sterling – 5/10
Looked more dangerous than he has done recently but was wasteful in front of goal. Strayed offside when he might have scored in the first-half and then blazed over in the second after he was played in by Jordan Henderson.
ST) Rickie Lambert – 7/10
A decent day for the big-man in the absence of Mario Balotelli. He held the ball up well and caused plenty of problems for QPR. We can’t expect him to produce if we give him ten minutes, he needs more chances like this.
Subs:
1) Jordon Ibe – 6/10 – Looked dangerous and used his pace to get Nedum Onuoha sent-off.
2) Lazar Markovic – 6/10 – Another short-lived cameo from the young Serbian.
3) Lucas Leiva – 5/10 – Came on to allow Gerrard his incredible send-off.
