Cheeky fans taunt Klopp with old video after Konate controversy in Liverpool’s win over Everton

The voice asks: “Jurgen, Everton feel that Ibrahima Konate should have been sent off today and that it was a terrible decision that he wasn’t.

A stunned Klopp responds: "Are you serious with that question?"

The original clip is from last month, when Klopp was asked about Liverpool's issues with 12:30 kickoffs.
