"It's easier now for me to explain why I had confidence in this team because we have been creating a lot of chances away from home and the difference today was we scored goals," said the Liverpool boss.
"Every time we went forward we looked like scoring. We had a bit of luck as well because they had some clear chances, but it was a very good performance from the whole team.
"We had a lot of quality going forward with Gerrard and Alonso passing the ball well and I was pleased to see Bellamy score two good goals."
