The Liverpool manager revealed on Friday that he has been keeping in touch with his team players in a Whatsapp group chat where the stars are keeping high spirits by entertaining each other.
With the Premier League season currently suspended, all fit members of Jurgen Klopp's squad are training alone at home.
Klopp in a message to the club's fans, told the Liverpool official website via a video call from his home: "We spoke a couple of times, we have a really intense, big, big group chat - the whole of Melwood are in that.
"The boys are really lively in that, the boys are just interested in what everybody is doing, comments on what everybody is doing - if Ox (Oxlade-Chamberlain) is on Instagram or whatever. So, that helps a lot. The mood is good.
"I didn't cut the grass but I tried the dance of Ox. Not as bad as you probably think. It's very important in these times that we all show we take this situation seriously, but we are human beings.
"At the moment we are at home and when you are at home, you cannot do something to help outside. We are not health workers, we don't work in a supermarket.
"You have to keep your own mood up and you have to keep the mood up for other people. If the boys do anything on Instagram, as long as it's in a legal frame I'm overly happy about it - it just shows they are still cheeky and all that stuff."
