21:33Ian DoyleHook o'clockWouldn't be surprised to see Salah be substituted in the last 20 minutes or so.It really hasn't been the Egyptian's night so far.21:28Paul GorstGakpo's luckJust seen a replay of that Jones chance and it's Gakpo, of all people, who has actually taken it off him on the line with what would have been wonderful clearance had it happened the other end. It has been hopeless so far.Looks like Curtis Jones could be coming on for the second half - presumably for Gravenberch.21:11Paul GorstGerrard's takeSteven Gerrard's first-half assessment on TNT Sports: Not much to say about it really, pretty boring from a Liverpool point of view, Wolves have contained them really well, no penetration from the sides or centrally."Liverpool need to change something at half time, need to come out a different team and raise the tempo.



You'd expect them to be full of confidence after scoring five in the last game but there's been nothing of note, especially from the forward players."21:05KEY EVENTHalf-time ratingsAlisson Becker 6Caught the ball a few times during quiet first half.Jeremie Frimpong 6Unable to show his pace before interval and one shot horribly off target.Ibrahima Konate 7Defended on the front foot and ensured Alisson had next to nothing to do before half-time.Virgil van Dijk 6Sauntered through the first half without too much difficulty.Milos Kerkez 6Some difficult moments before break up against speedy Mane but stuck to task and raided forward when he could.Ryan Gravenberch 5Far too loose with some of his passes and well off the pace, and could have been booked before he actually was.Alexis Mac Allister 7Won the ball high up for Liverpool on several occasions and lively presence in midfield.Mohamed Salah 5Hounded out for one admittedly difficult chance early on but too often ran down dead ends or made wrong choice.Dominik Szoboszlai 6Not quite as influential as of late but one shot from range at Sa.Cody Gakpo 6Struck early shot on target and at least appeared willing to run at the Wolves defence and caused a few problems cutting inside.Hugo Ekitike 6One brilliant run from inside his half created chance but otherwise left his centre forward station too often.21:03Paul GorstHalf timeHalf time: Wolves 0-0 Liverpool. That booking had been coming and he's now somebody Wolves are simply going to run at.Wouldn't be surprised if he makes way at some point in the second half.Angel Gomes has treatment after a challenge with Mac Allister but can continue.20:38Paul GorstGravenberch bookedRyan Gravenberch booked for taking down Joao Gomes, who had moved away from the Reds' markers with ease there.20:36Ian DoyleGame lullNot a lot going on at the moment.

20:30Ian DoyleDecent openingEkitike does really well to take the ball from deep in his half to the edge of the Wolves area. Frimpong does less well with the eventual shot that goes miles over.20:26Ian DoyleEarly thoughtsLiverpool have started the better but Wolves are still working their way into this one.Mac Allister has done well to nick the ball in key areas and put the Reds on the attack.20:22Paul GorstSalah chanceWonderful ball over the top from Van Dijk to Salah but he's quickly crowded out as soon as he controls it.
