Klopp's team lose third Premier League away game in row · Two early goals set Wolves on road to win at Molineux · Dawson and Neves score after Matip own goal ...

We need a lot of points more to achieve our aim. "The team is not full of confidence, you can see that. We have to continue working hard. That's really hard to take, I have to say." We caused the misery with the first 12 minutes... a downcast Klopp told reporters after the game.

Liverpool were torn apart by Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday afternoon as they slumped to 10th in the Premier League with a 3-0 loss.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said he has no explanation for his side's 3-0 loss at Wolves on Saturday, adding he was "angry" and "disappointed."

We have to take that for the next game and using the chances we have and stop conceding the silly goals." "First 15 minutes we started the game not in a good way and we got punished for that. Conceding two goals, we are not in a good situation. What we make of it in this moment is absolutely not OK." It is one explanation in general yes, but not for the first 15 minutes here today. [Everton](http://www.espn.com/club/_/id/368/everton) won today and they are in a good moment so we have to prove a point again. I stand here again and for the first 15 minutes I have no explanation, I'm sorry. For the moment, I'm so disappointed and angry about the first 15 minutes, I can't find the words for it. It could have been 2-1 and that would have changed everything I'm sure. "But it happened and we were 2-0 down because of our own fault. "That's the thing. We were passive in that period.

Liverpool did threaten a second-half revival, but they missed big chances through Darwin Nunez, Naby Keita and Mohamed Salah before being punished on the ...

The Liverpool manager looked traumatised at times here, unable to comprehend what was going on in front of his eyes. Too often, he failed to hold the ball up and allow his side to get up the pitch, and when he did receive possession with space to run into, his decision-making was suspect to say the least. For half an hour here, Liverpool were as bad as they have been all season, including the defeat at Brighton which Klopp labelled as his worst in management. Matip scored the first of those goals, inexplicably failing to react to a ball played into the penalty area and then deflecting Hwang Hee-Chan’s cut back in off the far post. The aim, one presumes, was for Matip to ping a diagonal deep into enemy territory, allowing his team-mates to fight for the first and second ball. At kick off here, Naby Keita rolled the ball back to Matip, and the rest of the Liverpool team pushed up, en masse, into the Wolves half.

A nightmare start to the match saw Liverpool fall two goals behind after just 12 minutes through a Joel Matip own goal and Craig Dawson. Despite Jurgen Klopp's ...

"We caused that misery with the first 12 minutes. If Carragher's analysis is anything to go by, the Dutchman cannot come back soon enough. The start into the game was horrible, absolutely horrible; it was the opposite of what we wanted to do. "Then we started extremely well in the second half. Joe Gomez was alongside him against Wolves, having taken the place of Ibrahima Konate, who partnered Matip in the defeat to The German was visibly angry with his side as they fell apart and slammed them after the defeat. So, we saw different games today – all in one. Shambolic," the Liverpool legend tweeted. And Carragher blasted the Reds' other centre-backs for failing to perform without having Van Dijk's leadership alongside them. The Dutchman has missed the Reds' last three top-flight games with a hamstring injury. It was a downfall all of their own making at Molineux on Saturday, with Wolves racing two goals ahead within the first 12 minutes. "Very frustrating, very disappointing.

I haven’t lost confidence in the boys, but I see where we have to improve.” “I know my job, you know my job, it’s not to explain here how I can build up my team. Seven or eight players had no part in the first goal, seven or eight had no part in the second goal, but everybody is influenced by it. The team is not full of confidence, you can see that, but it was about defending, being compact, being active. Asked if he had lost confidence in his players, Klopp said: “I don’t think they are at their best at the moment. “We saw different games today — the first 12 minutes, then an okay away performance where we created, we were there.

Liverpool were hammered 3-0 by Wolves in the Premier League on Saturday and a number of their stars failed to perform, especially in defence.

[Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/145392/Alex-Oxlade-Chamberlain), N/R - He had little time to make an impact. [James Milner](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/26843/James-Milner), N/R - Another Premier League appearance for Milner but little time to do anything. [Harvey Elliott](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/280806/Harvey-Elliott), N/R - Worked hard when introduced, sprinting back to defend against the counterattack despite the game being out of sight. [Jordan Henderson](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/127262/Jordan-Henderson), 6 - Introduced for Keita in the 65th minute and recycled the ball well, but the Liverpool skipper didn't make an impact going forward. It soon got worse for the visitors after more questionable defending as [Joe Gomez](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/102053/Joe-Gomez) failed to hear his goalkeeper's calls to claim a cross and cleared the ball tamely into a dangerous area to allow [Craig Dawson](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/133938/Craig-Dawson) to score on his debut. FW Darwin Nunez, 6 - Nunez was able to get the ball into dangerous areas but lacked end product. Attempted to play too many first-time balls without looking and these frequently turned over possession. Could have done better with his strikes at goal. An uninspiring performance from the 25-year-old. His substitutions did little to change the outlook of the game. Ruben Neves simply had too much space for the third. At times when Liverpool needed to establish control, they often caused their own problems by either playing a high-risk pass or giving away possession carelessly.
