Pereira was bullish ahead of playing Liverpool and his team caused the Reds problems throughout the game.
One player in particular who couldn’t seem to get to grips with the afternoon was Ibrahima Konate.
And after seeing Konate flirt with a red card, Jamie Carragher did not hold back on the Liverpool centre-back.

Konate had been in the news before Sunday’s game after admitting in an interview with French broadcaster Telefoot that he was ‘flattered’ by transfer interest from PSG and Real Madrid.
But had those two teams been watching the Frenchman’s performance against Wolves, they would not have been impressed.

Carragher certainly was not.
Commentating for Sky Sports, the 47-year-old took aim at Konate after seeing him go in late for a tackle while on a yellow card.
“It’s a stupid challenge from Konate, he’s on a yellow card,” bemoaned the Liverpool legend.

“I’d be surprised if he comes our for the second-half.
It’s not a yellow card, he just misjudges the header but it’s a daft challenge, absolutely ridiculous.
“He’s done a couple of stupid things in the game, pulling someone back by the opposition corner flag, which he didn’t need to do.”
While we tend to agree with Carragher’s assessment that the second Konate challenge was daft, but not a yellow, former Liverpool captain Jamie Redknapp disagreed.
Speaking to Sky at half-time Redknapp claimed that the France international was ‘extremely lucky’ not to get a red card.
“Extremely lucky,” said the pundit.
“You have to save him from himself because he looks like he’s going to get himself sent off.”
After such a poor moment from Konate, Carragher’s prediction did indeed come true, with Jarell Quansah brought on for the No.5 at the break.
