QPR head coach Julien Stephan told BBC Radio London:
“It was not our best offensive collective performance. I think we have had some better games collectively since the start of the season, but it was really, really clinical today.
“The first three shots, in fact, were three goals, which completely changed the momentum of the game and the balance of power, giving a lot of confidence, even if they managed to score once before half-time.
“But we restarted very well in the second half with the willingness to continue to attack and to score more goals.”
Here’s how fans reacted with Portsmouth player Ebou Adams in tears at full time after his side lost 6-1 to QPR…
@Guardthebee: Take this from a Derby fan, Ebou gives everything and cares deeply. He’s a wonderful human being and was a credit to our football club. Hope he keeps you up.
@DanielE64141682: Give him the arm band
@84Knight: He’s about the only player who shouldn’t feel like he’s let us down or take any blame. Pathetic from our team/coaches that it’s left to a kid (Blair) and QPR players to consol him. Where’s the manager? Coaching staff? Captain? All first in line with the applause and fist pumps.
@Son189802: Seeing Ebou like that was a hard watch! Only player who showed a bit of fight & passion. He has nothing to be ashamed of. Fuck every other one of them! #Pompey
@JK_dcfc: This has put a dampener on a good day for me 🙁 fuckin love Ebou #dcfc #dcfcfans
@jakemeyers2015: My Captain 🫡 He did the same against Derby on Monday night, you can tell how much he loves #Pompey already.
@Clarkeyboy12345: I fucking love this bloke hope he agrees to stay when we go down and we give him the armband and we build a team around him
@kadcfcoutlookc1: Remember when he reacted like this after we lost 4-0 to qpr last season, Genuinely cares about the club and the fans he plays for
@TheLukeBeck: Not nice too see. That man gives you everything on that pitch! Hopefully can keep Pompey up and see that smile again! Ebou ❤️
@AnalyticsAbi: Before the game today our manager said to Sky “after two games at home it will be nice to have a change of scenery” well maybe the change of scenery should be permanent! Time to go! #pompey
@PFCNoah: No excuse not to sack him, love him and everything he’s done for the club but it’s time to go. Keep him and we’re down simple as, just gamble on a new manager bounce and rip the club out from top to bottom in the summer. #MousinhoOut #EisnersOut
@_PompeyArg: Do you understand that WE ARE NOT RELEGATED? Let the manager know that his team is playing worse with each game. I don’t mean to criticize him, but I truly feel his time as manager of this club is over. THANK YOU.
We may be a father son bonding project to you Mr Eisner , but people would die for this club, this club means so much more than you’ll ever know. Sell us now, free us from the shackles you’ve put us in, and lastly, fuck you and your son pic.twitter.com/QydOdjt5z9

@Michael_Eisner @eric_eisner, you promised to go the moment you were no longer wanted.
Nobody at #Pompey wants owners that are unable/unwilling to appropriately run our football club.
This season has been nothing short of a disgrace. pic.twitter.com/0MXKNIz1Zk
