Liverpool v Ajax: What has been said?
Ajax's former Everton midfielder Davy Klaassen admits there will be little joy for him in returning to Liverpool.
Klaassen, who flopped with the Toffees, said: “In my youth I played against Liverpool. With Everton I didn't really play those matches so not an awful lot of experience.
"I played for Everton so it does give you that bit of special feeling but it's been two-and-a-half years since I played here.
"I don't think back with a great deal of happiness or joy, no.
"It was quite clear that it was not a good fit - me and Everton. I was struggling to cope with a style of play I wasn't used to.
"It was a totally different style of play and it was just hard for me to feel a connection between my game and the game we played at the time in Everton."
