Liverpool moved to the top of the Premier League after a convincing 3-1 win against Bolton Wanderers at Anfield.

Jordan Henderson put the Reds in front on 15 minutes, curling in a left-footed shot to notch up his first goal for the club.

Luiz Suarez almost doubled his side's lead, but saw his chip drop just over the crossbar.

Soon after the break, Liverpool extended their advantage when Martin Skrtel powered home a header from Charlie Adam's corner.

Adam got himself on the scoresheet a minute later when his low, right-footed drive evaded the reach of Trotters keeper Jussi Jaaskelainen.

Bolton created little in the way of chances, but were rewarded for their efforts in injury-time when Ivan Klasnic tapped in after a mistake from Jamie Carragher.

Liverpool's next league fixture sees them travel to Stoke on Saturday, September 10, while Bolton host Manchester United.
