'It was good we didn't play Everton immediately, let's say': Jurgen Klopp urges his Liverpool stars to channel their anger in the RIGHT way in tomorrow's rematch of the game that wrecked their season

Jurgen Klopp wants his Liverpool players to channel their anger in the right way in Saturday's Merseyside derby with Everton, in what is a rematch of the tie which all but derailed their season earlier in the campaign.

Liverpool host their bitter city rivals at Anfield in the late kick-off, meeting Carlo Ancelotti's side for the first time since late October when a frenetic 2-2 draw saw two major injuries, a red card and a stoppage time winner ruled out.

Speaking ahead of the showdown Klopp admits his men were left furious after seeing Jordan Pickford's reckless challenge on Virgil van Dijk, which saw the Dutchman rupture his ACL and be ruled out for the season.
