Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish hailed a superb performance from Craig Bellamy as his side overwhelmed relegation-threatened Wolves 3-0 at Molineux.


Bellamy scored the second goal and tormented Wolves throughout with his threatening runs and tireless work as the Reds climbed to fifth place in the Barclays Premier League.

It completed a memorable seven days for Liverpool after their Carling Cup and FA Cup wins over the two Manchester clubs.

Andy Carroll's first league goal for three months set Liverpool on the way to victory before Dirk Kuyt wrapped up the scoring.

"I thought it was a very professional, high quality performance from the players, a fantastic reaction to the previous two games," Dalglish said.

"This game became the most important one because it was the next one. They applied themselves well and got what they deserved. I'm delighted with everyone who played.

"It was great for Andy to score a goal. Craig scored a fantastic goal as did Dirk.

"Craig was fantastic. The wee man certainly has been fantastic for us. I wish his numbers were the other way around.

"Instead of being 32, I wish he was 23. He doesn't do anything that surprises you. He prepares himself well for matches. He does things for himself within the framework of the team. You expect something to happen."
