Nuno calls for more composure
Nuno Espirito Santo told his Wolves players not to be too downhearted after suffering a 2-0 home reverse at the hands of Premier League leaders Liverpool.
The hosts at Molineux were undone by goals from Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk, with the Wolves boss accepting that his side had not been clinical enough in the final third of the pitch.
I have nothing bad to say about the boys, they worked very hard and kept up the intensity.

However, the Portuguese was pleased with the effort and commitment shown by his team, who had won their three previous Premier League games.
Nuno told reporters: "This one is about final decisions and composure that sometimes the game requires, but I have nothing bad to say about the boys, they worked very hard and kept up the intensity.
"It is very hard to play against teams like Liverpool, especially when they are in front of goal - their counter-attacks are very dangerous - but we were able to stay in the game for quite a while and we created chances.
"The boys worked very hard, it was a good game, and we keep on going. We have to now rest and prepare for the next game."
Wolves can now be backed at 2/7 to finish in the top half of the Premier League table come the end of the season, with West Ham 1/2 and Watford 4/5.
Nuno's men are back in action on Boxing Day when they head to the capital to take on lowly Fulham at Craven Cottage.
