Liverpool 2-1 Wolves: Premier League – live reaction

Liverpool play like they did in that second half against Villa, City and Newcastle, their lead could be down to one point.”

That feels unlikely but I agree with the gist: even if they drop points in one of those games, if Arsenal win their corresponding three, with a four or five-point gap, the race is on. Problem is, Mikel Arteta’s men don’t look like a side able to overturn so significant a gap, and I fear they don’t have the attacking depth to pinch tight games.

Liverpool have to be better on the ball and recorded a crucial win. He’ll be ecstatic to learn I agree on all counts.Liverpool are nearly there.Liverpool win a throw deep inside the Wolves half, taking as long over it as they can; the ref indicates he’s stopping the watch.Liverpool apart.Liverpool to counter … the attack halted by Semedo’s foul.Liverpool, Bradley and Nunez for Alexander-Arnold and Jota.Liverpool fan, but I find very few of our players to be irritating or dirty. That said, while I love his hard work, Diaz always needs to leave his foot in and exaggerate contact for penalties, and it drives me nuts! There’s already enough contact, there’s no need for it. Another point, Konate is a talented player, but his occasional idiotic decisions make me always feel that the defence with him will never be as secure as it should be. I mean, why go for that header?!”

Konate is one of those who shows how hard defending is – the raw materials are all there, but he can’t quite keep hold of them, hence the impetuosity we saw this afternoon. And at 25, you’ve got to assume he is who he is.

46 min A poor touch from Salah – it’s an epidemic! – and Bellegarde has space down the left, tucking back a cut-back that Quansah does well to intercept as Cunha looks to shoot.
