"Simply delightful. Can't wait to see the inventive trolls on here complaining about the victory/squad/manager/owners. You'll get the usual drivel from them, Allen, Downing, 433, can't do it against top 10 team; pitiful. These are the same trolls that will be cheering us on when we're sat at the top of the PL in the next few seasons. Well done LFC as a club, the plan is definitely coming together."
"Rampant. Please keep your feet on the ground though. That is a message to the team, manager and supporters - look at what happened to Chelsea after they hit Villa for 8. Build on the momentum and put together another winning run. YNWA"
"excellent team effort and result yakes us to 7th same pts as arsenal. climbing slowly and plenty of pts still to play for. come on you reds. hopefully negative comments will be minimal. pleased goals came from different players. keep it up. YNWA"
"Well done lads! what a great win! I'm over the moon as we played some terrific football along all the game and scored five fantastic goals! Amazing performance by all the lads, but Luis, Dan and Stevie stood out for me! Keep going so lads, 4th spot is no more a dream! still congratulations to BR! YNWA Reds"
"Only saw the 2nd half, excellent performance, even better result. Really good to see our much maligned players really take the plaudits. That even includes Stevie G, who plenty of plastics have been slating this season.. Very happy, can go out tonight now!! "
"Perfect, probably the best performance of the season so far.The passing and movement was excellent,great team selection.Henderson was brilliant so was Suarez.Sturridge has made a big difference,very well done Brendan and the whole team. "
"Sturridge - 3 matches - 3 Goals
Hendo - good skilled, time will bring him more confidence.
Wisdom - Strong and dare to come up front.
Johnson- stubborn to keep dragging the ball and made wasteful pass as always.
Downing- in most minutes it was a waste to have him on the pitch full time and every match. Sign...."
"With SG, and suarez there we already had long range shots, outside & just inside box goals. With agger, skirtel we had good attack through set pieces. Sturridge adds ability for better counter attack and inside 6 yard box tap ins. What a signing!!"
"Finally a dominant display...5 goals scored by 5 players (Raheem was unlucky because the ball was going in but was deflected into goal by the Norwich defender!) Well done boys! More of this to come I we hope! YNWA!"
"Professional, slick. clinical. Excellent all round. And don't give me "the opposition were poor". This is what you do when the opposition is poor. A very good day and five different 'scorers', well almost.
YNWA"
"YES!!! we are becoming a cruel in front of
goal! Gearrad is turning his form around ! Weldone lads! But consistency please!!!! top 4 is well within our reach!"
"Just the response we needed after the united game well done lads interesting line up but more importantly the right line up well done Rodgers now come on and lets go on a serious run and attack the 4th spot ynwa "
"To those who didn't want Sturridge : LOL ,who wanted to sell jordan henderson: LOL, downing: LOL, to sack brendan: LOLOLOLOL. Ok it's just a game, but what a F... game..."
"It was entertaining to watch Liverpool excel in the built-up from the back to the final third. I was really enjoying the fluid manner of our play until BR sacrificed Hendo for the negative way of Allen yet again. I'm sick of watching Allen predictably surrender the ball sidewards and backwards. Looks like BR is failing to heed fans call to cut off Allen's negative play."

"To all those Hendo haters ssssssssshhhhhhhhh good lad for proving he has a future better than Allen has been so far. Lets hope there both a success. "
"Thanks brendan for making all the fans happy. Now this game is the past. we must look for nxt game as paisley was doing. Hope sterling understand that no one is bigger than lfc and that you must play liverpool way that mean fight for your team."
"Total domination, an absolute joy to watch. Passing, movement and workrate superb and continued on from our great second half last week. The improvement of the team and the individuals under BR is fantastic. How well is Jordan Henderson playing! Onwards and upwards. YNWA."

"trolls are off for at least 10 days :))...Arsenal is our last chance for top4- we need beat Arsenal...and hopefully Spurs beaten by United tomorrow.
Sturidge is massive improvement for us....in Brendan we trust !!!"
"It's about the squad and it was good to see carra back n jones geting a run in if wd could get Schneider n ince or couthinio then we cud push up the table , I think when Allen plays he slows it down so a 3 of gerrard Allen n Schneider with Hendo n Allen n jonjo as back up with Surez sturridge n downing with Borini n sterling n ince/cauthinio as back up can be a decent squad to get us top 6 "
"Shelvey, handerson, sterling, kelly, assadi,allen just looks awesome with their potential and are Ready to grab chances. They should be played regularly at least as subs. Hope suso, wisdom, coates, pacheco, morgan, yesil will live upto expectation as well."
"Sturridge-Great players, great assist.
Wisdom-Strength, assisting right wing area, not so perfect, but experience gaining.
Johnson-over-confident and sloppy pass as usual.
Downing-wasteful in most 90 min, can't find spot, can't defense, make Liverpool a 10-man team.
"
"For all supporters who have blasted our manager and players this past week and prior to today's match...did you see the REDS today? Support our team! Brilliant performance today from our REDS! Thank you BR, Jordan Henderson and Danno Sturridge. YNWA!!!"
"KennyD-Dynasty It's comments like yours on Allen, Henderson has got until now. Maybe you should give him some time to grow as a Liverpool player. I think it's wise of Rodgers to let Allen play when the game is allready won."
"lost13 - its quite clear that u have no idea abt football. U said earlier that BR made a very very stupid mistake 2day. Now u say we played 442? Your incorrect, You have'nt got a clue mate. Just post simple comments so u dont embarrass urself."
"Yeah Hendo n downing have shown they have something about them and I am chuffed they are showing signs of becoming decent players for us if they can keep this up til the end of the season then it will be a good season for them both, we Shud get carall back can u imagine a front 3 of sturridge carall n surez, but consistency is the key to success til end of season ynwa "
"Hendo was excellent playing progressive football. He deserved starting XI ahead of sideward/backwards Joe Allen. Superb performance. Fluid game. YNWA"
"Yeah Hendo n downing have shown they have something about them and I am chuffed they are showing signs of becoming decent players for us if they can keep this up til the end of the season then it will be a good season for them both, we Shud get carall back can u imagine a front 3 of sturridge carall n surez, but consistency is the key to success til end of season ynwa "
"Well done lads. Im happy with what I saw. Now plse, plse no complencancy we have Arsenal ahead. Its the fight for Top 4. Let us break their midfield. 5 in the middle we must win next weekend as well. Champions league lads. YNWA. East African Cop."
"Disappointed about the lineup and subsution.
with 3-0 against weak teams, should rest Gerard and Suarez and let young players like Suso, Sterling, Sturridge, Hendo, Shelvey being architect players find their creative teamworks.
BR just waste many players.
"
"Really enjoyed performance today. Would like us to impose this style on bigger sides. Snijder is a player that will gives us another dimension but if he doesn't come Henderson and shelvey are more than capable. Think Allen just needs to watch and learn 2nd half of season. No more starts unless injuries need him to!"
"very pleased for jordan henderson - stevie g sees him every day and says he sees similar qualities between them - i agree - slowly but surely this guy will impose himself on the liverpool team and the premiership. sturridge = vgood signing also"
"Why keeping Downing play full time in many matches now. He made Liverpool look like a 10-man team most of the time. He is total wasteful when we play against big teams.
BR is not the one who will make Liverpool become a champion of PL."
"Before we get carried away, this result happened before. We do need consistency but I don't want to detract from a complete dominant performance. I was a little apprehensive about whether or not Sturridge is the right piece for us but he's eager to win us over. Still not sure whether Suarez is best in the middle with Borini and Sturridge out wide though."
"Continuing on, a strong performance all around and Downing and Henderson man of the match? The doubters must be rubbing their eyes at that. Henderson today was absolutely fantastic."
"Superb win, just what was needed after last week. Whatever else BR does in this transfer window Daniel is looking a very clever signing. 3 in 3, hope he continues. "
"That's more like it!!! quality game, great win, chuffed for everybody who scored, esp. Hendo and Stevie, and even for the own goal hehe (our 2nd top scorer, soon to be overtaken by Sturridge!) Hope we keep going like that! CONSISTENCY! "
"liverpootilldeath69 you are right about downer. he do only 1 assist but waste a lot of ball and also by keeping the ball too much in his feet and this sometimes make our game slower and with a better team than norwich we will have problem in his flanks"
"Fantastic team performance with many possibly MOTM candidates! Happy to see some players back in track again with an amazing Daniel on his first days with us! YNWA!"
"This was a delightful match to watch. A purposeful passing TEAM game with an end product. Gerrard spent the whole match dishing out some of the most sumptous inch perfect passes. He is back!!! Hendo's goal is archive material. "
"Today MOTM should go to Team LFC....well done lads....keep up the good work and effort....short msg to BR....we should approach all our matches like this one, no matter who the opposition are, because WE ARE LIVERPOOL."
"All team was perfect, can't name anyone, look at the goals made by different ones, good performance from everyone. Glad for Hendo first goal at the PL and Daniel make his third goal in three matches consistently! Congrats!"
"The idiot who had Downing as MOTM should stick to knitting or cross sch cos he knows bog all about football. Toss up between Stevie and Luis in my book. Glenn had a good game and so did Lucas, Carra and Norman."
"lost 13 I suppose that's a positive comment from you.As I have said,if we play attack minded I genuinely believe we will be a match for anyone.Everyone was superb today,great team performance.Nice to see Hendo score,he's deserved that."
"redopm when you don't know about football you don't talk. we must not just look at 1 match but must look for improvement of the team amd that why we say what we see on the pitch for the gud of lfc only. we not fans that like to loose"
"Quality match. Well done lads! lets hope from now on BR has learnt from his selection mistakes, by not putting Allen back in the team when Hendo has been far better. "
"Good result. I still think we need experienced playmaker. Like the Silva, Cazorla, Mata and yes Sneijder. Sneijder is like Gerrard. You could tell Stevie needs WCP alongside him. We also need a very good winger. Forget this one and think Arsenal and Oldham."
"percy9999 you are right man. I don't know where they find it possible to give downing motm after what he has done in front of kop end. he would have been jailed by shankly for what he has done and also note that he slow down our game becuase he keep the ball too much in his feet"
"ChampionsOfEurope - Most fans on here are just as supportive as you are, the only difference is there opinion to you. Fact is we are still to beat a top ten team and this needs to change quickly if we really what to push on. I go to every other game and cheer and support our team, but I am still allowed an opinion. "
"Brilliant. We took our chances for a change, and even Henderson looked good (no pun intended). Just one or two things I did not particularly like: the other players did not seem keen to pass the ball to young Sterling when he came on (come on, trust him), and we eased off towards the end. Continued."
"Recently we've started winning really big like a few 4-0 and now 5-0. Good to see are players have started helping with the goals. Great to see Henderson get a game as he deserves and should keep the same team for arsenal except for maybe carragher out for skrtel if he's fit. Also I'd maybe play borini instead of downing as downing ain't one for the big games"
"4 goals 4 different players - great teamwork and then the humiliation of an own goal. Great days work!
Mr Sturidge keep going, your well on your way to setting a few records - after 3 games. Forget the haters.
Mr Rodgers go get Sneijder and see the goal tally rise further."
"ChampionsOfEurope
19th Jan 2013 16:54 RedRivelino
19th Jan 2013 16:54 et cetera - you are enled to an opinion. Mine is that we would be better off with FSG leaving ASAP. This is the age of globalization and we are a club with a global profile. Continued."
"There are enough potential owners out there who would be keen to buy into LFC and who can also afford to live with LFC (FSG can't). Let us get in the right owners ASAP."
"Like i said i knew we would win this game . Well done lads keep it up and lets make it in to the top four. I believe we can get the 4th spot by the end of the season if we keep playing Suarez and Sturridge up front together. All we need now is Sneijder and we will have a good team .
I think we will get Sneijder because Galatasary say they do not want him now .
YNWA "
"liverpootilldeath69, what is wrong with you? support the team. we won, why complain. downing though not my favorite player, but if you think you know better than brenden who manages the team week in week out, then yes you're arrogant enough to post your negativity here. "
"Bring on the ARSENAL!!!! I'm hoping for two draws on Sunday to help us catch the team above us and want man united to drop points so man city catch the rats."
"krtech - Glad I hear from you and a few others about what you think about Downing. He doens't have courage , should be wearing Liverpool's shirt.
I just don't get why BR didn't let him go. Charlie Adam is more helpful, but was already let go. This guy hasn't done any outstanding job and still around."
"Great result but let's not loose sight or get carried away. Against the top 4 we are well short of quality. We still need class and experienced players. Lets not let a 5v0 win, as good as it was, make us overlook our lack of depth and squad quality. Sneidjer is a must!"
"lpdcollier: I never have & never will say fans can't have an opinion, even when it differs from mine. The difference I see is in the word 'support', to me that means whether win,lose or draw, to others, it means when we win only. We don't need fans like that."
"Why does everyone slate FSG......idiots. They haven't spent big in last two windows but before that they spent huge, no teams spend huge amounts every window, not even city. Catch a grip of yourself, don't u remember how they payed off our debts when they came then spent over 100 million in transfers. "
"krtech there are a few on here who dont seem to know anything about football,even some who seem disapointed when we win so they have nout to moan about,YNWA."
"that was fantastic - I think we have to salute our Captain and our wonderful Carra as I bet these two have had a hand in changing the way we played! Thanks you Stevie and Jamie and congratulations to the team !!! BR take note !"
"Well done.TEAM perfomance was excellent.Although,Norwich is one of the worst teams in EPL.We've Zenit,Arsenal and City ahead,so keeping momentum is crucial.Hendo is better than Allen paired with Lucas.Stevie G. was like in old days.YNWA>"
"Great team performance! Well done lads... Hendo deserves special mention cos he's had a hard time of it from 'fans'. End cameo from borini made me smile with his skills. All round brilliant... Keep up the good work!"
"AllofRafasGems: Your vitriol are a clear example of how little you claim to know about LFC's recent history. Other than FSG bailing us out of administration with a 300mill cash gesture, who else do you claim was battering our door down to buy us. I'll save you the time for your response; no-one!"
"A great day 2 be a LFC fan the lads were outstanding.But i bet u pepole will say u only beat a 2nd rate team but u can only bet the team that is put in front of u YNWA"
"lfc4ever76: well said, it's always great to be a LFC fan, but judging by some of the postings on here, we don't seem to have great fans of LFC. I, like you, will bask in the 5-0 victory that some still feel the need to complain about."
"well done reds, ill eat my humble pie by the bucket full now as i didnt want us to sign Sturridge well done Daniel keep proving fools like me wrong YNWA"
"Sack rodgers-oh no we won, well I can wait. ;p
Keep believing and we can get 4th place! It can happen and we can also get the Europa league too and get some quality players in in the summer!"
"Well done lads,just what we needed!!! I see all the moaning SO CALLED FANS have taking themselves off for the evening,they must be well hacked off,as they cant come on here and complian.Do us all a favour,STAY AWAY,we dont need you!!! YNWA."
"Another game i carnt watch,,wasant on sky ect i wonder how so many of you manage to find it ,,,wasant we exspecting another hat trick (3rd in a row) why ? ,,becaurse its norwich,the easyest team we play"
"great win guys! evryone was good today n i dont understand why some people giving downing some stick. he was great he pacy n great forward n backwards. truth is i cant choose MOTM. evryone was great."
"championsofeurope.We MUST ignore them,if we continue to take notice of them,they will only hold us back.99% of fans know things will get better,patience...happy man tonight..."
"stuthebru they r only the easy team because we made them look easy in both games this season some of the so called top team haven't beat them this season "
"Great Performance and good to see Henderson score. Though I dun see he will develop anywhere near De Sliva, Alonso or Mata level of midfield in his time, but he will effective for keeping the midfield tight and occasionally put his name on the teamsheet. Developing toward Dietmar Hamann."
"I appreciate that Rodgers put Skrtel on Bench. This should put some alarm in his head. His performance of this season has been cause of concern. I wish he was subsuted by coates instead of cara. Heard coates left angrily. :-("
"As I said before, Sturridge will be a great buy only to score but also relieve Suarez from heavy markings. See how he dummy the pass to Suarez to score. Three goals and three games. Sorry Carroll, thk you shld our ex-red over at West Ham. Con't"
"And Knowtow to Brendan. He know when he made a mistake in the transfer market. and Fast enough. Bench Joe Allen is a good decision and bring him only when victory is seal to gain some confidence if any. Young Managers learn fast, act fast... not like the older ones."
"Henderson to start from now on!!
What a great game lads!!! everyone did good some did excellent, there should be no doubt about whether Henderson should start over Allen now. Also great to see Sterling claim a goal just as everyone said he was doing bad "
"Hey guys stop squabbling! A good win and 'team' played as one!We have right to expect this weekly and voice opinions!Dont forget 'team LFC' didnt turn up 1st half last week!Why? Thats what frustrates us and no doubt BR.Showed today they can do it-need same mentality for Zenit, City,Arsenal games!Its improving but still need add experienced quality players in squad."
"where are all the negative trolls today ? What a suprise when we win the same people who would normally be moaning like mad and wanting Rodgers sacked are saying how good he is and how well we played. Good result lads and remember Y.N.W.A with the true Anfield Faithful. "
"It's quite clear that some idiots that come on here should support the players we sign like sturridge! How many said no? He's doing great now and making u idiots eat your words!!! YNWA "
"Great result and Excellent performance, all the players were superb especially the "inherited misfits" lol. The game today is another proof that we have good enough players that can match any team when the formation, line up and the mentality approach are right."
"Let's see just short of 150 posts on here today after a 5-0 thumping; when we lose >300 negative posts. A very worrying pattern forming for the LFC fanbase. Again, great to hear 'there's only one Brendan Rodgers' at Anfield today. YNWA."
"I wonder why there are hardly any posts and all of them are positive? We must have won and the misfits must have played well again. Damn, so there is nothing to moan about, jeez it must be boring for them. May I suggest Tiddlywinks, a thoroughly absorbing game that requires great skill. Just saying..."
"I have been really impressed with our recent home form, you can only beat who is in front of you and we have done it extremely well. Norwich are a well organised team who don't concede to many, so that makes it all the more sweeter. We now need to start beating teams who sit above us. Starting with Arsenal next week. "
"redopm: What really worries me is the swelling number of fools who have posted nothing but -ve comments on players/BR/FSG/signings since the beginning of the season, saying how embarrassed they are of being LFC fans; what's really embarrassing for me is that all our rivals have access to this site & read these acidic comments & just pi55 themselves laughing at us."
"Good win, some good individual performances but I was most pleased for Hendo. He has worked hard, taken loads of stick for a young player, was saddled with high price tag and he has never whinged! Carry on Hendo onwards and upwards. Good team performance too with a great captain. YNWA"
"Amazing performance lads,still would of liked to of seen more of Sebastian Coates in the first team and we could do with adding a more experienced top class midfielder before window shuts to create even more chances such as Wesley Sneijder.Henderson Gerrard and Sneijder in the midfield would work very well and gain us more victory's in my opinion."
"goor result-the negatives are found wanting-anyway still a long way to go until the season ends and many points are up for grabs.4th?? lets see!-good point budhha"
"Well done lads. Credit to Rodgers for his selection today. We finished strongly vs. Man Utd., so starting Suarez and Sturridge seemed to be the right thing to do. I`m really glad they`'re clicking already. It was great to see Gerrard`s and Henderson`s names on the scoresheet too. Perhaps this signals the beginnings of another great partnership?"
"Well great, at last Suarez had a strike partner and everything falls into place. Pitty the owners didn't listen to the fans in the summer. Where would we be now if they had? Top 4 easy. The future looks good, once we off-load the rest of the rubbish and buy players who can do the club justice."
"WouzerLFC
19th Jan 2013 17:57 - have there been bidders who could have paid off our debt and spent big 'every window'? Yes. Are there (compeive) clubs in the EPL that are carrying debt and still getting in adequate reinforcements every window? Yes. I think FSG should sort out their priorities or sell out at the earliest opportunity. "
"steady people..... it was a excellent attacking performance But it was against a bottom of the table team , until we can do this against most teams then i think where getting some where"
"Someone was due a spanking Norwich got it twice this season pity we could not of got a point at old trafford but still onwards and upwards clean sheet with carra and brad holding the fort now all we have to do is be ruthless up front WELL DONE LADS YOU MADE MY DAY bring on city and the gooners YNWA"
"Now that the team has demolished norwich all the fake lfc fans are talking! To liverpooltilldeath69, i don't know what is your problem but its seems you have a downing fixation! perhaps you have not watch the third goal of sturridge but its downing who has provided the cross and i must say he is working hard to do his best in every game and not like you who knows only critisizing!"
"Let me remind you liverpooltilldeath69 it needs guts and you must be a man to wear the shirt of lfc and play on the field, which i presume you are not! These players are giving everything they have, so have some respect for them and stop writing stupid things in this forum! Br is trying to bring the best out of these boys. see how hendo, lucas and downing have progressed under Br. "
"superb team performance , best by far this season.
Well done lads.Awesome.
Next two matches just as important in league , 2 wins wud b great but settle for 1 win n a draw.
on u REDS a strong finish n claim 4th above r neighbours.
YNWA JFT96"
"Everyone of our players were fantastic,the passing were crisp and the harrying the few times Norwich got the ball was good to behold.
Please guys play like this against the strong teams and we will be surprised where we end up at the end of the season.
Anything is possible when you work very hard for it.
Go you great reds."
