LIVERPOOL PLAYER RATINGS V QPR

Liverpool can count themselves mighty fortunate to have earned all three points at Loftus Road on Sunday. Playing Emre Can in the holding role with Steven Gerrard upfront in the 1st half was a foolhardy decision by Brendan Rodgers and a better side would have beaten us out of sight before half-time.
