Dejan Lovren says Joe Gomez has responded well after being booed playing for England this week.

A small section of fans expressed their frustration after Gomez was involved in an incident with Raheem Sterling, which caused the latter to be omitted from England's clash with Montenegro.

"I think he reacted well, to be honest," Lovren said. "I've been speaking with him two or three days ago and asked about it and he was OK, positive and this is what is important for the club and his team-mates. We are behind him and that's what he needs at the moment.

"He's an unbelievable man and player but it's aggravated everything about that and he didn't deserve it. You're playing for the national team and he's there, giving his best so I don't think he deserved the boos."
