And that will conclude our matchday live for today, now to concentrate on Sunderland v Leeds.

Some Arne Slot on Jeremie Frimpong, who had to wait to make an impact for Liverpool, and supplied an assist against Wolves.

“I think a lot has been said by so many people about the amount of money we’ve spent last summer. But unfortunately not all of the money we’ve spent we have used and that has to do with the injuries of these players.

“Jeremie is a great example: now if he is fit, he can definitely help us because last week he had the assist against Tottenham and he had a great assist against Wolves. Pace - that’s what he has and that’s so important and crucial in modern-day football. The first goal we scored was pure individual ability: quick - bam, bam - and a cut-back cross.”
