Kelleher to face another test against Wolves
Jürgen Klopp celebrated blooming youth in the aftermath of Tuesday’s hard-won Champions League defeat of Ajax. While Neco Williams and Curtis Jones conjured the winning goal between them, Caoimhín Kelleher was first to receive a bear hug from their manager. The goalkeeper’s ability to play with the ball at his feet, born of playing as a midfielder in his schoolboy days back in Ireland, would seem to push him ahead of Adrián, rather less of a ball player, in the reckoning to stand in for Alisson, the latest victim of Liverpool’s plague of muscle injuries. Williams and Jones may play their part, too, as Klopp’s rage at the scheduling continues to be justified by senior players breaking down. Wolves are also having to look to youth, with Raúl Jiménez set to be missing for some time after fracturing his skull at Arsenal on Sunday. Fábio Silva, who came on at the Emirates after that sickening injury, showed fleeting glimpses of what made him worth £35m from Porto. Nuno Espírito Santo is being characteristically cautious with him, but a vacancy has arisen.
