Some Everton fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to comments from Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp ahead of the Merseyside derby.

Everton will take on Liverpool at Goodison Park in the Premier League on Wednesday evening.

The Toffees are in poor form at the moment and will head into the Merseyside derby on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Brentford.

Liverpool hammered Southampton 4-0 at Anfield on Saturday.

Klopp told Sky Sports about the match against Everton: “It’s always a completely different game, so I really very often don’t like the intensity of the game, it’s too much for me.

“I like physical football, I have no problem with that, we play that, other teams play that, but in that game very often people put too much in. I can’t say it’s my favourite game of the year to be honest, because of that.”

What are Everton fans saying?

As you can see from the tweets below, Everton fans are not pleased with Klopp’s comments about the Toffees.

Well, some of them anyway.

Everton and Liverpool played out a 2-2 draw with each other at Goodison Park in the Premier League in October 2020.

Virgil van Dijk and Thiago suffered long-term injuries.

In February 2021, Everton got the better of Liverpool 2-0 at Anfield in the league.

Liverpool will head into this week’s Merseyside derby as favourites, but you just never know in these matches.
