Nine months ago, it was the terraces and the boardroom: the former crying for the removal of Roy Hodgson, the latter eventually heeding the call. This time, at least the histrionics came from Luis Suárez.
The Uruguayan does not, it is fair to say, enjoy being substituted. His face crumples, his head shakes, he grumbles into his shirt, he kicks bottles, he slouches into his seat.
It should not be taken as a sign of his unhappiness with life at Liverpool. Far from it. Suarez is just being himself, and few in these parts would change a thing.
"He wants to be involved all the time," said Kenny Dalglish, the man who replaced Hodgson, the messiah appointed by the Kop the last time Wolves came here. "He wants to play for as many minutes as he can and he wants to score."
It is an attitude which the Kop cherishes to such an extent that Dalglish, a man who knows these things, feels Suárez is not simply on the path to joining him in Anfield's pantheon, but there already.
Indeed, perhaps the only reason the 24 year-old cannot be considered as being seated next to the Scot himself is his evident aversion to sitting anywhere, at all.
"He is not just on course," the Liverpool manager said. "He has arrived. He was there when he scored his first goal after coming on against Stoke. The fans have taken to him because he is genuine, 100 per cent committed. They love players like that. Our supporters are the most intelligent I have come across and, for me, they understand when someone is doing well."
Suarez scored the decisive goal – an electric effort which left Christophe Berra seeing stars before it reduced Wayne Hennessey to grasping air — after Charlie Adam’s hopeful long-range effort was deflected home by Roger Johnson and despite Steven Fletcher reducing the lead just after half-time.
He is the embodiment of a virtue which Uruguayans pride themselves on more than any other – courage and an unquenchable will to win.
It means he chases down lost causes, hares after defenders in possession, marrying the technical excellence which produced his goal to a ferocious work ethic.
"He was awesome," Wolves manager Mick McCarthy said. "He is something else. I said to Kenny that he never does what you expect him to do. You think he’s going to shoot and he cuts it back. You think he is going to come short and he cuts in behind.
"You never know how to play him. He is just a bloody good player. In the second half, we played it by the seat of our pants against him, which is why we probably deserved to get something."
