Liverpool centre-back Virgil van Dijk has revealed that Jurgen Klopp has shouted at him on many occasions.

The Dutchman is often the outstanding defender in the Reds lineup.

However, Van Dijk has not been able to escape criticism, as he stated on The Overlap Xtra while speaking with Manchester United legend Gary Neville.

“Oh yeah plenty of times, yeah," Van Dijk responded on the Sky Sports program when asked if he had incurred Klopp's ire.

“Not in my face though because I feel like screaming in someone's face could be a little disrespectful but when it's needed he will definitely do it, but he shouts a lot.

“The thing is and what I like is that someone does that because someone really cares about you or the situation and wants to make sure it improves or get anyone else sharper. So I really enjoy that in a way and it helps me personally."
