Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has again sung the praise of Jurgen Klopp.

Klopp oversaw a 6-0 demolition of Aston Villa on Sunday, and Gerrard is hopeful he can be the man to bring the success the club has craved in recent years.

"I'm a huge fan, I was a big fan at Dortmund and I think we're very lucky to have him at Liverpool," the LA Galaxy midfielder told CNN.

"I struck up a bit of a relationship with him. I'm hoping with my fingers crossed that as a Liverpool fan he can get us trophies and bring us some success."
