Liverpool manager Klopp: You need a navigation system to get around Augsburg striker Bobadilla!

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has identified Raul Bobadilla as Augsburg's biggest attacking threat.

As the Reds prepare to take on the German club at the WWK Arena in the Europa League Round of 32 first leg on Thursday, Klopp spoke of the Argentina-born Paraguayan striker who cuts a very imposing figure on the pitch for the Bavarian club.

"They have players with big potential and have one of the most physical strikers in Europe - Raul Bobadilla - who you need a navigation system to drive around," said Klopp.

"He is a real worker and difficult to defend [against]."

This season, former Grasshopper, Borussia Monchengladbach and FC Basel forward has netted six goals in five Europa League outings including a hat-trick against AZ Alkmaar in November.
