BOO BOYS WON’T FAZE VAN DIJK, INSISTS KLOPP

- DOMINIC KING

JURGEN KLOPP has spoken to Virgil van Dijk before his return to Southampto­n tomorrow and urged him not to get caught up in the emotion. Van Dijk is set to receive a hot reception at St Mary’s, where he returns for the first time since his £75million switch to Liverpool in January. But the Anfield manager is backing the defender to stay calm. Klopp said: ‘They want to help their team and they will whistle. Is it nice? I don’t think so. Will it have influence? I don’t think so, but we will see.’
