Dalglish sees shoots of recovery as Torres tames the wolves.

By Ainsley Jacobs, writing from England

Revenge would have been on the minds of the Liverpool players as they headed down on the coach to Molineux this morning. Just 26 days ago, Stephen Ward scored the only goal in the reverse fixture at Anfield and in doing so hammered another nail into Roy Hodgson’s coffin. That performance was one of the worst ever witnessed at Anfield but a month on and a with a new coaching team at the helm the fans may have seen Liverpool turn a long overdue corner.

Liverpool mostly dominated the first half treating the away supporters to some pass and move football so rarely seen this season. At the heart of this was the excellent Raul Meireles and it was his vision that created the first real chance of the game with a beautiful long range pass to Fernando Torres. Sadly the Spaniard’s attempt to curve the ball around Wayne Hennessey was well read by the keeper but Liverpool served warning to Wolves about their attacking intent. The first goal of the game followed not long after with again good work from Meireles slicing through Wolves pathetic attempt of an offside trap to then cooly pick out Torres for an easy side foot finish. Torres looks like a striker reborn under Dalglish who has galvanised his star number 9. With fire in his belly and steely determination, he was a constant thorn in Wolves side.
