Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was very happy with the way his team responded to a drubbing at the hands of Aston Villa.

The Reds were humiliated 7-2 by Villa before the international break.

But they have fought back since, earning a 2-2 draw with Everton and then defeating Sheffield United the following week.

They also defeated Ajax 1-0 away from home in the Champions League in midweek.

"It's all about showing a reaction - you cannot influence the things that have happened to you in life. You can influence the response you show - and I like the response, to be honest," Klopp told the media.

"The boys were really ready to work extremely hard again, show real resilience and fighting for results. All those kinds of things are important. I expect them, actually, but after the very, very long good times we had, people react differently.

"They did exactly what I thought they would do - they fought and we won both games."
