Liverpool player ratings as Harvey Elliott and three others excellent against Wolves

Caoimhin Kelleher 7

Rarely had a save to make but confident with the ball at his feet.

James Milner 7

Provided reassurance down the right and calmness benefited Liverpool. Experience made difference during Wolves bouts of pressure. Subbed.

Ibrahima Konate 7

Good clearing headers as Wolves pressed during opening exchanges. Intervened when required and showed good strength.

Joe Gomez 8

Confident both in and out of possession and read the game well. Number of good interceptions as Wolves sought leveller.

Kostas Tsimikas 7

Tough ask in checking the marauding Traore and Lembikisa down the Wolves right but stuck to task. Fired one shot over first half.

Stefan Bajcetic 8

One stray pass aside, the teenager posted a hugely impressive first-half showing that belied his tender years. Made the right decision more often than not. Subbed.

Naby Keita 7

Brought energy to the Liverpool midfield and looked to get the team moving forward. Good pressing but began to clearly tire a bit in final quarter.

Thiago Alcantara 8

Responded to his poor display at Brighton with an aggressively front-footed display. Booked and subbed.

Harvey Elliott 8

Smashed home a brilliant long-range finish for the opener and buzzed with intent, linking well with team-mates playing on the right.

Cody Gakpo 7

A few rather ambitious shots aside, this was a first real hint of his capabilities. Encouraging when given chance to run. Subbed.

Fabio Carvalho 7

Showed signs of linking well with Gakpo and good work-rate before break. Kept at it second half. Subbed.

Mohamed Salah (for Gakpo 67) 6

Barely had a touch as Wolves moved on the offensive.

Curtis Jones (for Carvalho 67) 6

Welcome opportunity and dragged one effort narrowly wide

Nat Phillips (for Milner 67) 7

Slotted in well at centre-back.

Ben Doak (for Thiago 75) 7

Another chance for the youngster and caught the eye with his pace and strength

Fabinho (for Bajcetic 75) 6

Brought on to help see the game out.
